Purpose This study aimed to identify the effects of shared leadership, communication skills, and team effectiveness, as perceived by nurses and nursing assistants in comprehensive nursing service units.
Methods A cross-sectional research design was adopted, and the sample included 306 nurses, nurse assistants, and caregivers working in nine hospitals with fewer than 500 beds in two South Korean cities. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and four-step hierarchical regression analysis.
Results The factors influencing team effectiveness in the hierarchal multiple regression analysis were shared leadership (β=.57, p<.001) and communication skills (β=.18, p<.001). These factors explained 49% of the total variance.
Conclusion To enhance team effectiveness in compressive nursing service units, educational programs focusing on shared leadership and communication skills among nurses, nursing assistants, and caregivers must be developed.
Purpose This study was conducted to test a structural model for patient safety culture of clinical nurses focusing on organizational policy and interpersonal factors.
Methods: A descriptive structural equation model design was used. Participates in this study were 385 clinical nurses. The variables of safety management system, authentic leadership, team effectiveness, and patient safety culture were measured to test the hypothetical model. SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 21.0 were used to analyze descriptive statistics and path analysis.
Results: The final model fit satisfied goodness-of-fit and all path were significant. Authentic leadership (β=.54, p=<.001) was reported as the most influencing factor, followed by team effectiveness (β=.24, p<.001) and safety management system (β=.21, p<.001). Safety management system (β=.38, p=.002) and authentic leadership (β=.12, p=.002) had indirect effects on patient safety culture as well.
Conclusion: The findings of this study show the importance of authentic leadership, team effectiveness, and safety management system to develop patient safety culture. The health care organization should develop the programs to increase these influencing factors.

Purpose This study was to investigate the structural relationship between nurses' motivation and effectiveness in their occupations using the Job Crafting model. This study was identified that the nurses' occupational motivation affected task, cognitive, and relational crafting. The factors affecting job effectiveness, organizational commitment and job embeddedness were also identified. Methods The survey was conducted with 596 participating nurses working in common general hospitals and tertiary hospitals within South Korea. A structural equation model was constructed to verify the fitness of this model. Data was analyzed using SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 21.0 programs. Results The identified factors affecting occupational motivation was positive affectivity job crafting. Cognitive crafting had a significant impact on task and relational crafting, but task crafting had no significant influence on organizational commitment. Organizational commitment was found to have a significant impact on job embeddedness. As a result of comparing by size of the hospital, the Job Crafting model validated in this study showed higher fitness at tertiary hospitals than in common general hospitals. Conclusion We found that nurses' job crafting behavior and occupational motivation cause them to have a significant influence on organizational commitment and job embeddedness, which are factors of job effectiveness.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to develop a Team Effectiveness Scale for Nursing Units (TES-NU) and verify validity and reliability of the developed scale. METHODS A preliminary 69 item version of the TES-NU was developed through in-depth interviews. The draft scale was developed using 65 items selected following content validity evaluation. Finally, thirty items with response options on a 5-point Likert scale were selected based on internal consistency reliability and construct validity. Subsequently, convergent validity of the TES-NU was verified. RESULTS Six factors, namely, leadership of the head nurse, cohesion, job satisfaction, competency of nurses, productivity, and coordination were identified. These factors explained 64.6% of the total variance. The TES-NU's Cronbach's α for the total scale was .94. The correlation coefficient between the scores of the TES-NU and Ahn's Team Effectiveness scale was .59. CONCLUSION Results show that the TES-NU developed in this study has good reliability and validity. Therefore, this TES-NU is recommended as a useful tool for managing team effectiveness for nursing units.

PURPOSE In order to provide a systematic and standardized treatment course for MVD patients, a critical pathway (CP) program was developed and the results of its long term application were analyzed. METHODS This was a methodological study. The CP was established and applied to 75 (step I) and 1,216 (step II). Another group of 56 with similar features was used as a control group. RESULTS The application of CP turned out to be useful in many regards: the rate of hearing loss was reduced from 1.8% to 0% (step I) and 0.5% (step II), and low cranial nerve palsy was reduced from 1.8% to 1.3% and 0.7%, respectively. The length of hospitalization decreased by 2.56 days (25.2%) for step I and 3.05 days (30.0%) for step II. Days of ICU stay were reduced by 7.9% and 1.8%. The total cost per patient was reduced by 14.8% (step I). The cost per day was increased by 13.7% and 52.4%. An increase in the patient satisfaction index was noted, as shown in the ICU information guide (p=.002). CONCLUSION The development and application of CP was found to improve the quality of medical treatment and the efficacy of hospital management in MVD patients. Well organized and efficient system and multidisciplinary teamwork are the key component of the successful application of CP.
