The evaluation of personnel leasing as a flexible work model in professional satisfaction among nurses and in the quality of provided nursing care

Healthcare represents a critical employment sector, recognized for its dynamism in development and future prospects. Continuous evolution in this field necessitates reforms to achieve economically efficient and higher quality health services. Despite the shortage of nursing staff, there is a growing importance of personnel scheduling as a form of employment within the sector. Despite the potential instability associated with this work arrangement, it offers relief from temporary absences from the workplace. However, concurrently, there arises the possibility of negative impacts on the quality of nursing care, especially concerning coherence and coordination in patient care delivery.
