Abstract

Work role function is important in every organization especially when coupled with roles and support. This study examined the interrelationship among personal characteristics, perceived roles and support, and work role function of nurses in selected hospitals in Ormoc City, Leyte, during the fourth quarter of 2024. It explored how age, sex, marital status, education, and hospital classification influenced nurses’ perceptions of roles, support, and work demands, including scheduling, physical, mental, social, and flexibility aspects. The study also assessed the correlation between senior nurse support and nurses’ work role functioning. Statistical treatments used included frequency distribution and simple percentage, mean score and standard deviation, summation of scores, chi square with Cramer’s V and Pearson r. Younger, single nurses expressed higher preceptorship needs, while those with advanced education reported greater confidence in handling work demands. Findings showed that senior nurse support positively correlated with work demands across scheduling, output, physical, mental, social, and flexibility dimensions. Effective preceptorship improved adaptability, resilience, and decision-making skills, reducing burnout and enhancing job satisfaction. In conclusion, preceptorship and senior nurse support are crucial for optimizing work role functioning in demanding healthcare settings. Recommendations included structured mentorship programs, ergonomic training, enhanced mental health support, and flexible scheduling. Future research should examine the long-term impacts of preceptorship and tailor interventions to diverse nurse demographics, contributing to improved staff well-being and patient care outcomes.
