Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the associations between nursing home administrator (NHA) leadership style and staff turnover.

A general linear model (GLM) was used to estimate the effects of NHA leadership style, organizational characteristics, and local economic characteristics on nursing home staff turnover for registered nurses (RNs), licensed practical nurses (LPNs), and nurse’s aides (NAs).

Several forms of non-state authority have emerged, including corporate social responsibility, provision of information through labeling, and self-reporting.
