The aim of this study was to assess the implementation of the Performance Management
and Development System (PMDS) for nurses at a tertiary hospital in the Free State
Province. A qualitative research approach with contextual, descriptive and explorative
design was conducted. Non-probability purposive sampling was employed to select
twelve nurses working at a tertiary hospital. Individual semi structured interviews were
used to collect data. Data obtained from participants were analysed through Tesch`s
approach. Themes that emerged from data analysis include perceived ineffective PMDS
implementation for nurses; Perceived consequences of ineffective PMDS implementation
for nurses; Nurses needs regarding effective implementation of PMDS; Perceived
benefits related to PMDS implementation. The identified subcategories that clarified the
themes are as follows: poor performance assessments due to gaps on the PMDS policy
regarding accurate performance measurement tools, the importance of acknowledging a
team approach in ensuring monitoring and evaluation of nurses’ activities. Furthermore,
the study emphasised that although PMDS implementation is beneficial, the consistency
in implementation could be enhanced by transparency and involvement of nurses in
decision making concerning PMDS. Recommendations based on the findings were made
for consideration in clinical practice and research. |
