The deployment of temporary nurses and its association with permanent nurses' outcomes in Swiss psychiatric hospitals: A secondary analysis.

The objective of this analysis was to investigate the frequency of temporary nurses’ deployment and their association with nurse staffing levels and permanent nurses’ outcomes in Swiss psychiatric hospitals. The data is based on the MatchRN Psychiatry study including 79 psychiatric units and 651 nurses  and provides unit level frequency of temporary nurses’ deployment and individual nurse level data on  staffing levels and permanent nurses’ outcomes namely job satisfaction, burnout, and intention to leave organization or profession. The data was collected in 2019 and 2020. We provide the unit and nurse-level dataset, a codebook and the r code to replicate the analyses of the paper.
