Retention of international nurses in receiving country:Voices of Indonesian nurses in Japanese healthcare facilities
摘要
Abstract
Objectives:This study aimed to explore the voices of Indonesian migrant nurses on their retention in Japanese healthcare facilities. Methods:A descriptive qualitative study was conducted between June and September 2023.The snowball sampling method was utilized to recruit 22 Indonesian nurses working in healthcare facilities in seven prefectures of Japan.Semi-structured interviews were conducted based on their shared expe-riences.All interview data were audio-recorded,transcribed verbatim,and analyzed using thematic analysis. Results:Six prominent themes and 15 subthemes emerged:1)organizational factors(caring leader,involvement in decision making,career development,and participation in training);2)social support systems(group support,colleagues support and friend support);3)individual drive(lifelong learning and persistent);4)national policies(government support in public service and flexibility in finding a comfortable placement);5)family factors(positive support of child education and development and maintaining relationship with spouse);and 6)economic factors(staying due to high salary and increasing income streams). Conclusions:Retention of Indonesian migrant nurses in Japan is a multifaceted challenge that hinges on various interconnected factors.This study has gone some way toward enhancing our understanding of international nurse retention in the receiving countries.Corresponding supports at the individual,family,organizational,economic,social,and national policy levels should be considered to keep them in their destination countries.关键词
