O comprometimento profissional em uma instituição de saúde pública: estudo de caso

Abstract

The research is aimed at describing in which the levels of commitment of professionals in a hospital influence their information sharing attitudes. The research is characterized, in terms of its approach, as quantitative and, with respect to the objectives, as descriptive. The data were collected by means of questionnaires applied to 50 professionals of administrative and assistance areas of a health institution. The results indicate that professionals from both areas are highly committed to the institution, which indicates a desire to contribute to the success of the organization. The data also suggest a positive association between professional commitment and information sharing. It is expected that this work may contribute to a better understanding of the relationship among professional commitment and information sharing and that it stimulates further studies on the subject.
