Abstract

Introduction Job satisfaction is a professional aspect that contributes to the achievement of objectives in general and in the health sector; it is a golden standard for having quality care. The satisfaction of nurses is a path toward humanized nursing. This article aims to evaluate the job satisfaction among nurses of the neurosurgery department at Bantane Hospital.

Materials and Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study including 74 nurses at Bantane Hospital in Nagoya Japan in August 2023. Nurses responded to a questionnaire relating to job satisfaction. Univariate analysis was supported by bivariate analyses at the 95% significance level.

Results The survey revealed that nurses aged between 18 and 29 were mostly represented (62.2%). Drip-injection medication was the most preferred activity (15 times) by Bantane nurses. The satisfaction rate was 63.5% and the fact of considering nurses point of view, good interpersonal relationships, and a considerable lunchtime period was statistically significant (p < 0.05).

Conclusion Transcendental motivation is a priority in the approach to humanize nursing by considering both monetary and nonmonetary incentives to motivate nurses.
