Scenario: You are an administrative intern in a nursing facility. The administrator is conducting a management study to investigate organizational factors associated with certified nursing assistant (CNA) job satisfaction in this facility. As part of the initial steps in the research process, she is developing “a literature review to provide background and context for the research” (R&V, 2022, p. 630).
Your part in this management study is to develop an annotated bibliography of peer-reviewed journal articles that discuss selected organizational factors that are associated with CNA job satisfaction in nursing facilities. In particular, she wants you to find articles that discuss how the independent variables of organizational culture, culture change, and a focus on person-centered care relate to the dependent variable of CNA job satisfaction.
Tasks (3):
1. Perform an article search based on keywords found in the research objective for the annotated bibliography. Identify five relevant peer-reviewed journal articles to be used in the annotated bibliography. (In your search, use the databases available https://clayton.libguides.com/ Do not use Google Scholar.)
2. Your annotated bibliography must contain:
• heading of: Annotated Bibliography (centered at the top of the page)
• an APA style reference for each article of the five relevant peer-reviewed research articles on organizational factors associated with CNA job satisfaction in nursing facilities that you have identified in your search process. Be sure to note the particular factors that have been assigned. (The relevance of each article will be assessed.)
o (See Marek, P. (2010). The basics of scientific writing in APA style or Purdue Owl APA style Reference List for how to format references.) https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_formatting_and_style_guide/reference_list_articles_in_periodicals.html
• the author prepared abstracts for each article included in the review. Each abstract is included directly below each article’s reference information.
• Be sure that the Annotated Bibliography reference list is organized alphabetically by first author per APA style.
3. After the last entry in the annotated bibliography, you must also provide a summary of the article search process.
Article Search Process Summary
The Article Search Process Summary will contain a written response to the following questions regarding the search process. (Answer the questions below and include after the last entry in the annotated bibliography as the last page in your document. Number each question and include the question with your answer, using complete sentences in your response.)
1. What databases did you search and why? Be specific on which databases that you used, don’t just say Galileo. (Use the databases available through https://clayton.libguides.com/ Do not use Google Scholar.)
2. What inclusion and exclusion criteria did you use? E.g., date range, type of sources, e.g., peer-reviewed journal
3. What key terms did you use for your search? How did you select the key terms you used for your search?
Organizational Culture and CNA Job Satisfaction in Nursing Facilities
This study examined the relationships between workplace empowerment, organizational climate, staff mix, and job satisfaction of nursing staff. The findings indicated that workplace empowerment was positively related to job satisfaction, while organizational climate was not significantly related to job satisfaction. Staff mix was found to be a significant predictor of job satisfaction, with higher levels of registered nurses (RNs) and certified nursing assistants (CNAs) associated with higher levels of job satisfaction.
Culture Change and CNA Job Satisfaction in Nursing Facilities
This study examined the relationship between hospital restructuring and the quality of nursing care. The findings indicated that hospitals that experienced restructuring were more likely to have lower nurse staffing levels, higher patient-to-nurse ratios, and lower nurse job satisfaction.
Person-Centered Care and CNA Job Satisfaction in Nursing Facilities
This article introduces the concept of person-centered care as a model for the future of long-term care. Person-centered care emphasizes the importance of respecting the autonomy and individuality of residents, and providing care that is tailored to their individual needs and preferences.
This article provides a practical guide to creating a person-centered care system. The author discusses the key principles of person-centered care, and offers strategies for implementing person-centered care in nursing facilities.
This study examined the relationship between hospital management practices and patient safety. The findings indicated that hospitals with a strong culture of safety had lower rates of patient safety incidents.
