The Voice of Travel Nurses: Facilitating Effective Staffing During Pandemic and Expansion-Related Demands in a Children's Hospital.
Journal of Nursing Administration 2024 April 2
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to explore the experience and perceived value of travel nurses in a children's hospital.
BACKGROUND: Children's hospitals face unique challenges related to highly specialized care requirements and workforce expansion limitations. Travel nurses can augment nurse staffing capacity during times of intense demand and may offer insights as organizations seek to strengthen work environments.
METHODS: Pediatric travel nurses currently contracted at the hospital were invited to participate in a focus group or interview. Content analysis was used to summarize information and identify themes.
RESULTS: From the 56 participants, 5 themes emerged. The themes were financial, flexibility, searching for healthy work environments, nursing care, and solutions.
CONCLUSIONS: Hearing the voices of travel nurses may offer valuable feedback to strengthen future professional practice environments.
