Generational Differences in Communication and Collaboration Competencies Among Nurses in a Level II Hospital

This research examined how various age groups of nurses collaborate and interact with one another at a Level 2 hospital in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan. Eighty nurses participated in the study and completed standardized questionnaires. The data was analyzed by the researchers using one-way ANOVA, weighted mean, frequency, and percentage. According to the study, nursing professionals in their entry-level roles who are Millennials or Generation Z exhibit advanced skills in all aspects of collaboration and communication, including teamwork, technological adaptability, and verbal, interpersonal, and digital communication. The ANOVA results indicated no discernible differences in the skills of the various generational groups. The research study demonstrates the significance of communication and teamwork skills. The study suggests that age differences have no substantial impact on communication and cooperation capacities, as these capacities are developed through shared job training, workplace culture, and the business environment. The study demonstrates that intergenerational nursing teams operate successfully when companies use varied inclusion methods with full engagement from all staff members. The study proposes that healthcare institutions adopt standardized techniques to improve intergenerational cooperation within teams.
