There are global nursing challenges, especially with the number of patients admitted to hospitals increasing annually, thus contributing to burnout among nursing officers, shortages of staff, and underpayment due to competitive resource requirements. These factors greatly impact nurse retention, especially in institutions with few resources. The problem does not only impact nurses, but equally, it affects the level of care given to patients. This plan will help some hospitals realign their strategies, especially in providing progressive implementation steps by hospital management. The recommended application of this proposal would be in a collaborative approach to management, particularly in the hospital’s staffing and better remuneration of the nurses to help them focus on their practice.
The first objective is to enlighten staff members by offering education to all nurse managers and senior administrators on the significance of transformational leadership in a hospital setup. The education of top hospital managers will also highlight the benefit of an inclusive decision-making process, especially on medical processes, it implies that junior nurses will equally be allowed to voice their concerns on particular issues affecting the operations and running of the hospital.
The second objective is to provide a well-framed plan to increase nurse remuneration and lower rations between patients and nurses. Implementing this proposal would improve the hospital’s reputation among the public and earn approvals from many organizations. A good hospital reputation is based on patient care, staff remuneration, and local community relations (Wensing & Grol, 2020). Thus, a hospital benefits from good public opinion because it will receive more referrals and funding from government and donor organizations.
