This study examined whether greater job satisfaction for critical care nurses has a relationship with higher levels of adherence to the central line (CL) bundle interventions and lower central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) in the VA” Gilmartin et al (2016).

Abstract:

Job satisfaction is a measure of an employee’s feelings toward his or her job. Research demonstrates that satisfied employees are more productive, more supportive of their organization, and have higher patient satisfaction. It is not known if job satisfaction influences adherence to evidence-based interventions and patient outcomes. This study examined whether greater job satisfaction for critical care nurses has a relationship with higher levels of adherence to the central line (CL) bundle interventions and lower central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) in the VA.
