摘要

Background

The high turnover intentions among family doctos (FDs) in China have impacted the stability of teams and the quality of healthcare services in community health centers (CHCs). The factors influencing FDs’ turnover intentions include not only individual characteristics but also organizational environmental factors within CHCs. This study aims to explore the mechanism of the impact of FDs’ professional identification and organizational incentives on their turnover intentions.

Methods

This study selected 3 397 FDs from 102 CHCs in six districts of Beijing as the research subjects. Multiple scales were used to quantify FDs’ professional identity, turnover intention, and organizational incentives. A Hierarchical Linear Model (HLM) was employed to investigate the effects of organizational-level and individual-level factors on turnover intentions and to analyze the interaction between individuals and organizations.

Results

The study found that FDs’ professional identification has a significant negative impact on turnover intentions (Beta=-0.242, P < 0.001). The level of organizational incentives in CHCs had a significant negative impact on turnover intentions (Beta=-0.173, P < 0.001), and the level of organizational incentives played a significant negative moderating role in the process of individual professional identification influencing turnover intentions (Beta = 0.004, P < 0.05).

Conclusions

Enhancing FDs’ professional identity can lower their turnover intention, and the impact of personal identity on turnover intention diminishes in institutions with strong organizational incentives. During the training stage of FDs, it is essential to foster a strong personal professional identity value the role of organizational incentives, and optimize the overall organizational environment.
