Abstract
AIM
The study was conducted to assess the predictors of patient-centred care provision among nurses working in an acute care setting. We hypothesized that higher structural empowerment and compassion satisfaction and lower burnout would predict the provision of patient-centred care.
BACKGROUND
Patient-centred care is a crucial aspect of quality health care and the heart of nursing care. Although previous studies have highlighted some determinants of patient-centred care provision among nurses, there remains a gap in understanding the factors that predict the provision of patient-centred care.
METHODS
A cross-sectional predictive design was used. Through random sampling, 255 nurses were recruited from five hospitals providing acute care services in Saudi Arabia.
RESULTS
Multiple linear regression revealed that compassion satisfaction (β = 0.260 [95% CI: 0.201-0.645]), burnout (β = -0.266 [95% CI: -0.998 to -0.403]) and structural empowerment (β = 0.273 [95% CI: 0.462-1.427]) jointly explained significant variance (27.5%) in the provision of patient-centred care by nurses.
CONCLUSIONS
The study findings reveal that lower burnout, higher compassion satisfaction and structural empowerment increase nurses' provision of patient-centred care.
IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING MANAGEMENT
Leadership and managerial strategies that not only address compassion satisfaction and burnout but also empower nurses are crucial for the provision of patient-centred care by nurses.
