Magnet Hospital Characteristics and Northern Canadian Nurses’ Job Satisfaction
Heather Smith, Rick Tallman and Karen Kelly

Abstract
Retention of health professionals is a serious problem in northern and rural Canada. Magnet hospital factors are known to increase job satisfaction, which contributes to retention. The purpose of this paper is to examine the extent to which magnet hospital characteristics (management support, nurse-doctor and nurse-manager relationships, professional autonomy and responsibility) contribute to northwestern Canadian hospital nurses’ job satisfaction.
