Abstract
Background: Innovation is a crucial issue in healthcare services since it can affect job-related variables such as productivity, satisfaction, and burnout. The aim of our study was to examine the impact of innovation support on quiet quitting, innovative behavior, and innovation outputs among nurses.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in Greece during April 2024. We employed a convenience sample of nurses. We followed the reporting of observational studies in epidemiology (STROBE). We used the following instruments: (a) the innovation support inventory (ISI) to measure innovation support; (b) the quiet quitting scale (QQS) to measure quiet quitting; (c) the innovative behavior inventory (IBI) to measure innovative behavior; and (d) the innovation outputs (IO) scale to measure innovation outputs. Our study questionnaire was anonymous, and nurses gave their informed consent to participate. The Ethics Committee of the Faculty of Nursing, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, approved our study protocol, while we followed the guidelines of the Declaration of Helsinki.
Results: Our study population included 328 nurses with a mean age of 42.3 years (standard deviation: 9.7). Among them, 89.9% were females. Our multivariable analysis identified a negative relationship between innovation support and quiet quitting. Moreover, we found that managerial support and cultural support improved several aspects of innovative behavior, such as idea generation, idea search, idea communication, implementation starting activities, involving others, and overcoming obstacles. Additionally, managerial support improved innovation outputs.
Conclusions: Our findings suggested the positive impact of innovation support on quiet quitting, innovative behavior, and innovation outputs among nurses. Organizations and nurses' managers should establish an innovative working environment to improve nurses' passion, motives, and productivity.
