Abstract:
Background: Nursing shortage is a worldwide phenomenon; in rural areas, this shortage is exacerbated by geographical imbalances. Reducing the inequality of health outcomes between rural and urban areas requires improvement in the rural nursing workforce. Thus far, little research has been conducted on the recruitment of nursing students to rural nursing in China. Aim: This study aimed to explore nursing students’ perspectives of rural nursing practice and their intentions to work rurally after graduation, and to identify factors contributing to those intentions. Methods: Exploratory interviews

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The purpose of this research is to determine the degree to which a positive experience with nursing leadership increases nurse's job satisfaction. The different values and norms of the generational cohorts result in each cohort perceiving leadership characteristics differently. Factors such as length of exposure to leadership, location, shift worked, clinical versus non-clinical positions and the presence or absence of Servant-Leadership, all have the potential to impact nursing satisfaction. Nursing satisfaction, or dissatisfaction impacts retention, further modifying nursing leaders

Abstract:
This thesis is about the business of nursing; the making and remaking of nurses’ work in the context of private healthcare. Nurses in Australia, as in other countries around the world, have experienced considerable workplace changes over the past 15 years due to governments and public and private healthcare organisations seeking to reform healthcare service delivery. These reforms have significantly changed not only how private hospitals manage care, but the nursing role in practice.

The art of nursing is discussed throughout nursing literature but research on the topic is lacking. The purpose of this research was to reveal experiences of the art of nursing. Nurses were asked to describe experiences about the art of nursing from their own nursing practice. This study was qualitative in nature and used a phenomenological approach to answer the research question, “What is the experience of the art of nursing in nursing practice?” The study was guided by the philosophical stance of Merleau-Ponty and the research strategies of Thomas and Pollio.

This thesis uses a philosophical method of enquiry to engage in a conceptual exploration of some significant features of the nature of integrity within nursing. Since integrity is understood in its moral sense and nursing, it is argued, is an intrinsically moral activity, the thesis is also normative. Integrity is considered to be a higher or second order virtue which contributes to the realisation of other moral goals, rather than being an end in itself. For this reason much of the thesis concerns the nature of care in nursing and an exploration of what it is to be a good nurse. However, part
