Since The Bahamas is located only 160 nautical miles from the United States, nurses in The Bahamas are aware of opportunities in the United States. Therefore, it is important to identify factors that affect nurse retention and implement strategies to retain nurses in The Bahamas. Purpose: The primary purpose of this study with nurses in The Bahamas was to determine the relationships among job satisfaction; professionalism; select demographic variables including age, level of nursing education, area of practice, and years of practice, and organizational commitment; and nurses\u2019 intent to stay in the nursing workforce in The Bahamas. Another purpose was to identify variables that predict nurses\u2019 intent to remain in the workforce in The Bahamas. Theoretical Framework: Meyer and Allen\u2019s Three-Component Model of Occupational Commitment (1991) was used in this study to measure occupational commitment. The three components of this model are affective commitment, continuance commitment, and normative commitment. Methods: A correlational, descriptive survey design was used in this study. In addition to a demographic survey, the 289 participates were asked to complete three survey instruments: The Nursing Job Satisfaction Instrument, Hall\u2019s Professionalism Scale, and the Occupational Commitment Survey. Results: The data analysis revealed that job satisfaction and professionalism were significant in predicting the occupational commitment of nurses in The Bahamas. The demographic variables of age, level of nursing education, area of practice, and years of practice were not predictors of occupational commitment of nurses in The Bahamas. None of the variables of occupational commitment were significantly predictive of the intent of nurses to stay in the nursing workforce in The Bahamas. Conclusions: The findings will assist nurse educators, nursing leaders, and the government of The Bahamas in understanding variables that predict the occupational commitment of nurses in The Bahamas. Implications for nursing education, nursing practice, and nursing research were addressed." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Classification" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "RT42.C47 2008" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publication Date" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "2008" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Genre" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Academic theses" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Holding Location" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University Archives and Special Collections" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Resource Identifier" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "RT42.C47 2008_Chisholm-HannaStephanieS." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Language" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "English" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Permanent Link" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "http://sobekcmsrv.barrynet.barry.edu/AA00001854/00001" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Creator" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Chisholm-Hanna, Stephanie S." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Note" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Thesis (Ph.D.)--Barry University, 2008", "Includes bibliographical references (leaves 113-122)." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Physical Description" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "xiv, 159 leaves ; 28 cm" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Publisher" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Barry University" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Place of Publication" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Miami, Fla." ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Type" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Book" ] } }, { "label": { "en": [ "Rights Management" ] }, "value": { "none": [ "Copyright Stephanie Chisholm-Hanna.
