Purpose This study aims to analyze the financial performance research trends in medical institutions and to suggest the necessity and future research direction for financial management from the perspective of nursing organizations.
Methods: Financial performance research in medical institutions was extracted by combining the keywords ‘finance’, ‘nursing’, ‘medical’, and ‘hospital’ in three domestic and foreign online databases. 55 studies were finally extracted.
Results: Of the 55 studies selected, 41.8% have been published after 2010, and 79.6% have been published in Korea. 83.6% of the studies used financial statements, and 74.5% used the financial ratio. Among the studies on the use of financial statements, 40 balance sheets and 41 profit and loss statements were used.
Conclusion: There were some limitations in deriving implications for financial performance management at the level of nursing organization. When establishing strategies for future financial performance improvement, it is recommended to prioritize nursing cost optimization and profitability enhancement at the nursing organization level.
Purpose The purpose of this study was to develop and psychometrically test the nursing start-up attitude scale for student nurses. Methods The initial items were based on the second analysis of systematic review of previous studies and in-depth interview data with 9 nurse entrepreneurs. In total, 25 items were derived based on the pilot survey.
Psychometric testing was conducted with 324 student nurses. Data were analyzed using validity and reliability test methods. Results Six factors, including 12 items explaining 74.4% of the total variance, were verified. The factors were opportunity of self actualization, network building, enhacing start-up competencies, outcomes of start-up, preparation for start-ups, and risk taking. Cronbach's ⍺ was .75. Conclusion As validity and reliability have been verified through various methods, the developed scale in this study can contribute to assessing student nurses’ attitudes to nursing start-ups.

Purpose This study was done to explore research trends on start-up intention of college students in Korea. Methods Articles published from 2014 to 2018 were searched. Search term was “start-up intention.” At the first search, 2,137 articles were extracted from academic databases (DB). One hundred forty six articles were used in the systematic review and 88 articles were used in the meta analysis. Results There were 384 variables explored in relation to start-up intention. In the correlation and regression analysis, self efficacy and risk taking showed statistical significance in most research. In the meta analysis, career orientation, start-up preparation behavior, and start-up attitude showed statistical significant effect size. Conclusion We propose that structural equation model analysis be conducted to find causal relation among variables affecting start-up intention of college students. This will contribute to development of theoretical models for the activation of nursing entrepreneurship.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to identify workplace violence experience of new nurses and to investigate effects on organizational variables. Workplace violence experience can lead to new nurses developing negative attitudes towards nursing jobs. A safe organizational culture in which new nurses can work while being protected from workplace violence must be established. Methods An online survey was conducted with 180 nurses. Collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and regression analysis. Results The total score for workplace violence experience of new nurses was 1.75±0.55. There was a statistically significant negative correlation between verbal (r=-.32, p <.001), threatening (r=-.26, p <.001), and total (r=-.28, p <.001) workplace violence experience and job satisfaction, and a positive correlation between verbal (r=.18, p =.016), threatening (r=.17, p =.024), total (r=.17, p =.021) and turnover intention, respectively. Verbal violence experience was found to be a significant factor influencing job satisfaction, and the explanatory power of the model was 9.5%. Conclusion Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to develop a workplace violence prevention program for new nurses and a procedure and reporting system to cope with workplace violence. Furthermore, there is a need to expand a culture of mutual cooperation and a nonviolent atmosphere.

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to develop a camp-style leadership enhancement program (CLEP) and evaluate its effects to provide basic data for developing such programs for nursing students. METHODS The study design was a randomized control pre/post-test. There were 35 participants each in the experimental and control groups for a total of 70 participants. The content and structure of the CLEP reflected 13 core concepts extracted using a systematic literature review. The program included a two-day camp-style program with eight modules consisting of lectures, individual and team activities, group discussions, team presentations, and feedback from the lecturer. The impacts of CLEP were measured using self, transformational, and servant leadership. RESULTS Pre-homogeneity between the group participants' general and leadership characteristics was confirmed. After the CLEP, the experimental group showed a significant increase in self, transformational, and servant leadership. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that universities utilize the performance-based self-learning CLEP to increase leadership among nursing students.

PURPOSE This study was performed to analyze financial ratios and nursing productivity and to interpret comparisons of financial standard ratios. METHODS The financial statements of 21 tertiary general hospitals were collected from the webpage of the National Tax Service in Korea. General characteristics of the hospitals were acquired from their webpages. RESULTS The results obtained were compared with the financial standard ratios of Korean hospitals. The majority of hospitals showed poor liquidity, performance, turnover, and growth. Nursing productivity was measured by calculating annual value added per nurse (￦ 39,746,938) and annual gross revenues per nurses (￦ 65,803,550). CONCLUSION Interestingly, although the financial ratios were generally poor, nursing productivities were very good. Nurse managers can suggest increasing nursing staff levels based on high nursing productivity despite poor financial conditions.

PURPOSE This study was done to identify the relationship between perception of the importance and job performance of patient safety management. METHODS This descriptive study was performed using self-report questionnaires. Participants were 200 nurses who worked at 4 tertiary university hospitals where data were collected for 4 weeks in June 2016. RESULTS The scores for perception and performance were 4.28 and 4.37 points. A positive correlation was found between perception of the importance of patient safety management and job performance (r=.74, p < .001). In regression analysis, the perception of the importance of patient safety management (β=.74, p < .001) was a significant factor in the performance of patient safety management. The regression model was statistically significant (F=134.43, p < .001) and the explanatory power of the model was 58%. CONCLUSION The findings from this study indicate a need to develop strategies to improve perception of the importance of patient safety management. Also, this data should be used as a basis to develop education programs to improve awareness of the importance of patient safety management.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to analysis the financial statements of university hospitals and to apply the results to build nursing management strategies. METHODS Data on the financial statements of university hospitals were collected each hospital's homepage or internet search from February to June, 2010. Financial statements of 11 hospitals were analyzed using the 4 categories of financial ratio analysis method: liquidity, performant, growth and turnover. RESULTS Overall results showed that the financial status the university hospitals were unstable, and many financial indicators did not meet financial standard ratios. Only 8 financial indicators of total 19 indicators satisfied financial standard ratios. CONCLUSION The results of financial statements analysis suggest that nurse managers should develop the blue ocean strategy for diversification of nursing services to improve financial ratios of liquidity, performance, and growth. Using a unit-based just-in-time system for effective supply management would help to increase profits and to decrease costs of hospital by improving financial ratios of turnover.

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of community visiting health service units using DEA and to compare the results with those of traditional evaluation methods. METHODS Data were collected using 2008 annual reports of 10 districts in one city. Input variables were number of staff and operational budget per year and output variables were number of managed household per nurse, rate of controlled hypertension, and diabetes mellitus. EMS Window version 3.1 was used to measure efficiency score and bootstrapping Chi-square test was applied to identify differences between efficient and non-efficient unit by organizational factors. RESULTS The average efficiency score of 10 community visiting health services was about 66%. Only two of the units operated program efficiently. The career of the staff was one among other factors associated with efficiency. The evaluation results from the traditional method and DEA were totally different. CONCLUSION These results indicate that, evaluation methods have very important and significant effects on the evaluation results of community visiting health service units. The DEA method is recommend as an alterative method for evaluating community visiting health service.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the cost using different methods of costing nursing activities for patients with chronic otitis media having surgery. METHOD Data were collected from 30 patients who had mastoidectomy and tympanoplasty. To compare the cost, the researchers used three different costing methods; consumed time, resource based relative value scale (RBRVS), and critical pathway (CP). RESULTS Twenty-six nursing activities for surgical patients with chronic otitis media were found. Total cost was 83,843.7 won using RBRVS. The costliest activity was recording at 9,734.4 won, followed by confirmation of doctors' orders at 9,302.4 won, and injection with infusion pump at 9,072.0 won. There was a difference in nursing activities performed according to the length of hospital stay, and the cost was highest on the surgery day at 13,417.8 won. Comparatively, the total cost was 72,014.4 won using CP. CONCLUSIONS Nursing activities are performed in various forms according to the disease and patient's condition, and different nursing activities are executed according to the length of hospital stay. In order to measure the load of nursing activities and distribute it appropriately, it is necessary to analyze the cost of nursing activities by the process of nursing services performed.

PURPOSE This study was conducted to evaluate the economic efficiency of a community-based nursing care center to help policy makers determine whether or not to invest in similar facilities. METHODS The subjects were 101 elderly people over 65 years who participated in a health management program from February 1 to July 31, 2007. Direct cost was estimated with center operations cost, medical cost for out-patients and pharmacy cost. Indirect cost was measured by transportation cost. Direct benefit was calculated by saved medical cost for out-patients, saved pharmacy cost, saved transportation cost, and reducing hospital charges. Indirect benefit was estimated with prevention of severe complications. Economic efficiency was evaluated by cost-benefit ratio and net benefit. RESULTS Operating a community-based nursing care center was found to be cost-effective. Specifically, the cost of operating the center evaluated here was estimated at 135 million won while the benefit was estimated at 187 million won. Benefit-cost ratio was 1.38. CONCLUSION The Community-based nursing care center that was described here could be a useful health care delivery system for reducing medical expenditures.
