[Nursing motivation leadership].
The concept of "patients treated as guests" is emphasized in today's medical service and patient-center nursing care. However, with rapid changes in health insurance and hospital accreditation systems as well as increasing consumer awareness, the nurse manager must both efficiently relieve the working pressure of nurses and motivate them. However, it would be an extreme challenge for nurse managers to build a team in which each member works in a self-fulfilling work environment and achieves a high quality of care. This article presents several theories and techniques that relate to motivation strategies. These strategies can serve as a guide and a reference for nurse managers to inspire teamwork and raise morale. It can be expected that increasing nurse satisfaction, performance, and care quality will decrease turnover and desertion rates. Hopefully, this article will assist nurse managers to become better leaders and to achieve success in providing efficient services and good of nursing care quality.
