Advanced practice providers (APPs) are an essential part of the health care system and provide high-quality access to care to patients across the country. Poor working environments and turnover of APPs can negatively affect patient care. Knowing what factors influence intent to stay can be important information for an organization to have for recruitment and retention purposes and to make positive change. This study examined the factors that impact an APPs intent to stay within a large health system that has a variety of different practice environments (large percentage ambulatory care). This study examined the study group demographics and compared them with the APPs resilience, decompression, and intent to stay. The "Examining Factors that Influence an Advanced Practice Provider’s Intent to Stay" survey instrument was developed to answer the following research questions: Is there a difference in intent-to-stay scores among advanced practice providers based on group demographics? Is there a difference in resilience and decompression scores among advanced practice providers based on group demographics? Is there a difference in sense of belonging scores among advanced practice providers based on group demographics? The survey instrument was administered to advanced practice providers (NP, PA, CNM, CRNA) via email. Data analysis is underway and will be complete by the time of this poster presentation. Preliminary data analyses are giving new insights into the factors that influence the APPs intent to stay and will provide new recommendations to leaders and administrators to assist in improving retention and reducing turnover.
