Background: This research aimed to investigate the possibility of realizing Magnet hospital attributes and its effect on nurses’ job satisfaction.
Materials and Methods: This applied study was a descriptive and correlational one. The study population consisted of the nurses who worked in Qods hospital in Arak. Nurses of emergency departments, operative rooms and angiography unit due to different implementation of the work were excluded and 275 nurses were selected. Chen, Johananthin and Kramer questionnaires were applied to data collection. Data analysis was conducted by SPSS software.
Results: The study results revealed that the effect of "Magnet Hospital attributes" on "job satisfaction" is equal to 0.567. Autonomy (β = 0.015), policy (β = 0.515), management style (β = 0.295) and professional development (β = 0.103) significantly contributed 56% of the variance of job satisfaction. Per unit increasing in "autonomy", "policy", "leadership style" and " professional development” was added 0.013, 0.427, 0.265 and 0.91 to "job satisfaction”, respectively.
Conclusion: Manager support for professional development has positive impact on nurses’ satisfaction through continuous learning, autonomy in their duties and increased nursing leadership power. Therefore, planning for access to Magnet hospital should be the top priorities of nursing managers.
