Abstract

This research aims to find out how organisational climate affects nurse job satisfaction in the Winneba Trauma and Specialist Hospital in Ghana’s Central Region. Three specific objectives were employed in this study. The quantitative research approach was used in the study. The study used the census sampling technique to select the nurses from the Trauma and Specialist hospital in Winneba. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from the respondents. The study’s findings revealed that organisational climate has a statistically significant effect on job satisfaction. Lastly, the study revealed that organisational climate positively predicts job satisfaction. The study concluded that organisational climates have a statistically significant impact on Nurses’ Job satisfaction. It is recommended that the management of the Trauma Specialist hospital should develop a user-friendly environment for all nurses. Also, the Hospital must support and reward committed nurses that work extra hours to save lives and promote the Hospital’s image. Similarly, the management of the Hospital must interact with the nurses from time to time. The Hospital’s policies and structure must consider the nurses’ needs so they can give their all in performing their duties.
