Abstract
Abstract
Problem: Nursing is a highly stressful career and with low levels of resiliency, nurses are becoming burnt out and unsatisfied with their jobs. When nurses are unsatisfied in their work, they leave their current position.
Purpose: The purpose of this project is to determine if a resiliency training program can increase nurses’ job satisfaction.
Methods: This researcher is proposing a quasi-experimental study in which one hundred registered nurses at Blanchard Valley Hospital will undergo resiliency training. The participants in the study will complete the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and the Job Satisfaction Scale (JSS) pre-intervention, three months post-intervention, six months post-intervention, and twelve months post-intervention.
Conclusion: By developing resiliency, a deeply intrinsic trait, nurses will be able to cope with stressful situations more effectively and become more satisfied with their work. When nurses are satisfied at their job, they stay. Developing resilient nurses may be a potential solution to the nursing shortage and staffing crises.
