Abstract

The shortage of nursing personnel working for the public sector contributes to incomprehensive health services and work impediments. Nursing students are therefore produced to be future personnel influential in working for government organizations. This descriptive study aimed to: (1) assess the decision rates in working for government organizations after graduation of nursing students under the Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) in Bangkok Metropolis; (2) examine factors influencing decision- making related to working for government organizations after graduation of nursing students under the MOPH in Bangkok Metropolis. Participants consisted of 226 senior nursing students studying at nursing colleges regulated by the MOPH in Bangkok Metropolis. Research instruments included a demographic questionnaire (personal information, family information, and society), and opinions regarding factors influencing decision-making in adhering to an organization. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and multiple regression analysis.

Results showed that the organizations for which nursing students decided to work after graduation were government organizations (65.9%). Organizational factors significantly highly affected the decision on working for government organizations (Mean = 3.84, SD. = 0.35); in particular, the organization for which nursing students decided to work needs to provide knowledge resources and experience (OR = 1.70, p = .05). Family factor significantly highly affected the decision on working for government organizations (Mean = 3.78, SD. = 0.63); particularly, the overall family factors (OR = 2.02, p = .01). Social factors moderately affected the decision on working for government organizations (Mean = 3.24, SD. = 0.55). Taken together, factors highly affected the decision on working for government organizations were family factors, and organizational factors, respectively.
