ABSTRACT
Nationwide there is a shortage and high turnover of nurses in health institutions, both are attributed to job dissatisfaction that can be caused by Burnout syndrome, little recognition among peers and society, perceived lack of support for training and professional development, overburden related to the number of patients per nurse; aforesaid can led to poor quality of care, increase of adverse events, high costs in health care and therefore user dissatisfaction. A strategy for solving this problem are Magnet hospitals considered as those that attract and retain nurses in health institutions to provide excellence in care through eight magnetic elements. That is why this paper links the eight magnetic forces to Donabedian’s trilogy of quality assessment, highlighting the benefits for patient, nursing professionals, the institution and society. With this the reader will identify areas of opportunity in daily practice.REFERENCES
