ABSTRACT
1. Nurse's aides are an essential component of quality nursing home care. This study explores some of their opinions about their employment. 2. Despite the many individual demographic differences, the findings of this study indicate that nurse's aides as a group hold many similar opinions about what they like and dislike about their jobs. 3. Multiple factors affect the attitudes of nurse's aides toward their employment. 4. The findings of this study indicate that attachment to others (residents, co-workers) and a sense of personal gratification in the work itself are major themes associated with both retention and morale of nurse's aides.
