Abstract

The doctorally prepared ET nurse may assume many roles. The goals of these roles are to enhance nursing knowledge, advance patient care, and promote enterostomal therapy in the nursing profession. These are no different than the goal of the ET nurse who is not doctorally prepared. Only the tools one uses to accomplish these goals and, therefore, the route taken may differ. While the doctorally prepared ET nurse has a common background with all ET nurses, he/she has unique skills to share in regards to curriculum and research. By understanding the role, and educational background of an ET nurse, the opportunities to work together to enhance ET nursing are endless.

What do hospital consultants value about their jobs? A discrete choice experiment.

OBJECTIVE: To examine the strength of hospital consultants' preferences for various aspects of their work. DESIGN: Questionnaire survey including a discrete choice experiment. SETTING: NHS Scotland. PARTICIPANTS: 2923 hospital consultants in Scotland. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Monetary valuations or prices for each job characteristic, based on consultants' willingness to pay and willingness to accept extra income for a change in each job characteristic, calculated from regression coefficients. RESULTS: The response rate was 61% (1793 respondents). Being on call was the most important attribute, as consultants would need to be compensated up to pound 18,000 (30% of their average net income) (P < 0.001) for a high on-call workload. Compensation of up to pound 9700 (16% of their net income) (P < 0.001) would be required for consultants to forgo opportunities to undertake non-NHS work. Consultants would be willing to accept pound 7000 (12% of net income) (P < 0.001) in compensation for fair rather than good working relationships with staff, and pound 6500 (11% of net income) (P < 0.001) to compensate them for a shortage of staff. The least important characteristic was hours of work, with pound 562 per year (0.9% of their net income) (P < 0.001) required to induce consultants to work one extra hour per week. These preferences also varied among specific subgroups of consultants. CONCLUSIONS: Important information on consultants' strength of preferences for characteristics of their job should be used to help to address recruitment and retention problems. Consultants would require increased payment to cover more intensive on-call commitments. Other aspects of working conditions would require smaller increases.
