Purpose: This study aimed to understand the factors influencing registered nurses’ (RNs) intentions to remain employed in their current nursing homes (NHs). Methods: Data were collected through individual in-depth interviews with 10 RNs in five Korean NHs from May 1 to May 31, 2024, and analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: RNs in NHs reported that their intention to stay was influenced by “positive interactions with residents,” “cooperative relationships among staff,” and “stability from long-term employment.” Conversely, their intention to leave was influenced by “work burden from insufficient RNs,” “role conflict,” and “low salaries.” Conclusion: This study indicates that significant reforms in staffing regulations and compensation systems are required to retain RNs. Improving working conditions is crucial for healthcare systems to provide effective long-term care to older adults. These changes are essential to maintain the quality of long-term care services.
