Related factors of nurses’ working motivation at Hanoi Medical university hospital in 2024

Objective: Analyze factors related to the work motivation of nurses at Hanoi Medical University Hospital in 2024 Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted from November 2023 to March 2024 on 355 nurses at Hanoi Medical University Hospital. The logistic regression analysis was used to find the factors related to work motivation of nurses. Results: 67.0% of nurses working at Hanoi Medical University Hospital had good work motivation. Univariate analysis showed that there were 3 factors related to the nurses' work motivation, including gender (p<0.05), age (p<0.05), and income per month (p<0.01). However, when analyzing multivariate regression after eliminating the interference, gender and income were 2 factors that had a statistically significant relationship with nurses' working motivation. Male nurses were twice motivated to work than female (p<0.05; 95% CI: 1.015 - 3.948). The results on the relationship between income and work motivation showed that nurses with an income >20 million VND were 2.1 times more motivated to work than those with an income ≤20 million VND. Conclusion: Developing a clear and public emulation and reward criteria is needed. The hospital should also review and adjust the salary and bonus policies to be appropriate for the capabilities of the nurses currently working at the hospital. There should be some incentives for female nurses or those who are main earners with financial difficulties to have more interest in their work. Keywords: work motivation, nurses, hospital
