• Description:
  This descriptive study surveyed 412 nurses in three hospitals and found that older nurses and nurses in more mature developmental stages showed greater job satisfaction, productivity, and organizational commitment. Job stages of entry, mastery, and disengagement were examined, and 24% of nurses reported being disengaged from their jobs, with lower satisfaction and commitment. Implications include the compelling need for nurses and organizations to do career planning together to avoid disengagement of nurses so critical to patient and organizational outcomes.
