Abstract

In order to clarify the conditions of fatigue in the work of new graduate nurses, who have a high rate of early turnover, we compared the cumulative fatigue symptoms of new graduate general practice nurses (GPN), new graduate public health nurses (PHN), and new graduate dental hygienists (DH) and investigated the relationship between the motivation to leave employment and cumulative fatigue symptoms in each group. <br> The subjects of the study included 139 GPN, 49 PHN, and 45 DH. We conducted a questionnaire survey using the cumulative fatigue symptoms index (CFSI). <br> According to the results, a comparison of the CFSI scores revealed that the new graduate GPN had a significantly higher mean CFSI score compared to the new graduate PHN and the new graduate DH. Moreover, among the new graduate GPN, the rate of physical characteristics, such as "chronic fatigue syndrome" and "physical disability", and mental characteristics, such as "decreased vitality", "anxiety", and "depressive feelings", was significantly high. New graduate GPN, who felt motivation to leave employment, had higher mean CFSI than new graduate nurses who no felt such motivation. Furthermore, we observed, that they felt significantly greater fatigue than those who no felt motivation to leave employment.
