Abstract :Objective: The present study aimed to determine the relationship between resilience and turnover intention among emergency department nurses. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive-correlational study was performed on emergency department nurses in hospitals of Guilan (North Iran). Simple random sampling was used. Data was collected using a questionnaire on personal and job characteristics, the Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Anticipated Turnover Scale. Data were analyzed using SPSS V. 16 software and statistical tests. Results: The study, mean of resilience and turnover intention were 52.84±21.97, and 37.20±15.46, respectively. Nurses reported average resilience and higher than average turnover intention. Resilience among nurses was related with gender and work shift (P=.01). Resilience and turnover intention among nurses had a statistically significant and inverse correlation (P=.0001, W=-0.40). Conclusion: According to the results, increasing resilience among nurses can reduce turnover intention, and resilience is related to the type of work shift. Therefore, creating favorable conditions and reducing job stressors can promote a resilient environment and prevent nurses from leaving their service.
