| description | Background: There is a consensus among hospitals management, health professionals,
and policy makers that hospitals and nursing services from the government hospitals are lagging
behind in terms of performance and good commitment due to their nurse’s poor performance, and
several studies have cited this current problem in Jordan. Total Quality Management implementation
helps hospitals to identify and eliminate areas generating the most waste and to improve department
workflows, thereby increasing overall service quality by using the strategies for quality
improvement.
Objective: The aim of this study is to develop, implement and assess the effect of TQM
intervention on nurse’s Job performance and nurse’s commitment among Jordanian nurses in
Government hospitals.
Method: A quasi-experimental multiple time series was conducted with a control group in
secondary hospitals within the Irbid Region for eight months starting from September 2017 and in
the duration of nine months ending in June 2018. Two out of eight hospitals were selected,
where participants one hospital was taken as an intervention group and the other
hospital was considered as the control group. Stratification and a subsequent simple
random sampling technique was utilized to select 70 respondents for each group. Pre-post
intervention, and follow-up phases were conducted to determine the socio-demographics and
nursing job performance and commitment. A multiple linear regression, one-way MANOVA,
and repeated
MANOVA and MANCOVA were utilized to analyze the data uses IBM SPSS 25.
Results: Out of 70 respondents in each group, 65 (93%) respondents in the control
group and 67 (96%) respondents in the intervention group were remained and analyzed.
There were no significant differences between the two groups (the control and intervention) on
nurses’ job performance and nurses’ commitment.
A repeated measure MANOVA test for both groups revealed that the interaction between
group and time was statistically significant (F (4, 127) = 144.841; p < 0.001; Wilk's Λ = 0.180;
η2=.820) which means groups had a significantly different pattern over time regarding on job
performance and commitment.
A repeated measure MANCOVA test for both groups across the timeframe showed that there were
significant differences between the two groups (control and intervention) regarding
nurses’ job performance and nurses’ commitment at 0.05 level of significance (F (2,127) = 320.724;
p < 0.001; Wilk's Λ = 0.165; η2 = 0.835) and the overall effect of time was also significant for
all dependent variables (F (4,125) = 36.879; p < 0.001; Wilk's Λ = 0.459; η2= 0.541.
Conclusion: The educational intervention conducted in this study was found to be
effective in enhancing nursing job performance among the sample of the study. The change in job
performance was attributed to the enhanced commitment of respondents
in the intervention group. |
