    PurposeThe purpose of this study was twofold: (a) to assess predictors of the turnover intention, burnout, and perceived quality of care among nurses working in Oman, and (b) to examine the potential moderating role of job satisfaction on the relationship between work environment and nurse turnover intention.DesignA cross-sectional design was used to collect data from a sample of 207 nurses working in a public hospital in Muscat, Oman.MethodsAn electronic survey was used to assess nurses' perceptions of work environment, burnout, job satisfaction, turnover intention, and quality of care.FindingsParticipation in hospital affairs, a foundation for quality of care, and staffing adequacy were predictors of burnout among nurses and perceived quality of care. Logistic regression analysis revealed that working in a favorable environment was associated with less turnover intention, but only when job satisfaction was high.ConclusionsImproving nurse job satisfaction is a mechanism through which future interventions could enhance working conditions and promote better nurse retention.Clinical RelevanceOrganizational strategies are needed to increase nurse job satisfaction by empowering nurses to take more active roles in hospital affairs as a strategy to reduce turnover intention and enhance the quality of patient care.© 2019 Sigma Theta Tau International.
