They have bolstered the critical shortage of nurses(The Nursing Shortage, 2018). The average age of employed registered nurses has increased over the past decade by two years. The increasing age of nurses’, combined with a possible strengthening of the economy, will create a more critical shortage for RNs (The Nursing Shortage, 2018). Nurses facesky-rocketing patient acuity levels, shorter hospital stays, and higher patient to nurse ratios. Nurses are alsosubject to increased demands of maintaining profit margins in a culture of the administrativemindset of doing more with less. These factorslead to increased stress, compassion fatigue, and dissatisfaction,creating nursing burnout(Erikson, 2017). Article Study 1 Background Haywardet al.(2016)performed a qualitative study examining issues related to experienced registered nurses' benefaction willingly changing where they work. This study magnifieshow the changes play into the cycle of rising expenditures for recruitment and orientation, the loss of a mentor. These factorsplay crucial roles in the potential of the reduction in quality patient care. Method 1 This study's data was obtained through direct interviews with twelve RNs that had a mean of sixteen years of hands-on professional nursing experience. The nurses’ work QUALITATIVE RESEARCH CRITIQUE AND ETHICAL 5 Before the study could begin, approval had to be obtained from upper management and nursing executives. The candidates who participated had to be deemed competent by their peers, be confident with their abilities, and receive an allowance and their wages for their expert competencyto be considered for participation in the study. Selection of varied sampling was made by age, sex, job, and experience. Twenty videotaped interviews were performed during working hours. The participants were asked questions concerning their typical workday, how their career and home life were balanced. The participants were then asked to describe incidents that significantly impacted them at work and at home. They were also asked to detail their responsibilities in nursing and to discuss the importance of their job. The second interview included information obtained from the first interview,which provided a greater understanding of past experiences. Results 2 Thestudy's authors discovered patterns emerging from the participants' responses that seemed to link time, team, and trust with satisfaction. Designs foundhelped determine a link between positive and negative experiences of the nurses. The patterns using the “three T’s” along with the participants' perceptions of how effective leadership was, the quality ofpatient care, and extent of collaboration, as well as the nurses’ intent to stay in their current position or if the nurses will continue to seek alternatives. Ethical Considerations 2 The study's review indicates the design followed the “Ethical Guidelines for Nursing Research” and further suggested that no damage was suffered.To help explain and give a clear understanding of the study, both verbal and written information was provided. Conclusion 2 QUALITATIVE RESEARCH CRITIQUE AND ETHICAL 6 The study's indications revealed that nurses felt quality patient care suffered when there was a lack of time to perform tasks. Time is a vital element because it allows the nurse to professionally encounter the patient with enough time for patients to sense, experience, and be genuinely present. Patients tend to have negative experiences when nurses have to rush the care provided. Effective teamwork and collaboration with physicians and all departments were closely linked to job satisfaction and made nurses feel appreciated, giving them a sense of accomplishment. Thisstudy's results have made it clear to this writer that the same nursing issues are happening globally, causing a worldwide impact. Nurses across the globe are encountering short staffing, long working hours, and pushy patients. Teamwork, Time, and Trust should have the same effect regardless of where the nurses' practice.
