Learning orientation in nursing homes in Poland
Streszczenie
As a major challenge of a social, economic, and institutional nature, the phenomenon
of population ageing is the basis for concern in terms of the direction of further socioeconomic
development. By the year 2050, the number of older people around the world will amount to more than 2 billion, constituting 22% of the total population. Over 75, people are faced with increased risk of disability (physical and mental), which can deprive of independent existence. The welfare system will not only have to meet
the growing demand for nursing homes, but also the increasing requirements
for the safety and quality of services. The innovation of nursing homes will be
conditional on the learning of the units of this sector. The scientific goal of the pursued
study was to evaluate the influence of learning orientation on the innovation of nursing
homes in Poland. Learning orientation has been the subject of the Author’s interest
in the context of four constructs: (i) commitment to learning, (ii) shared vision, (iii)
open-mindedness, and (iv) intra-organisational knowledge sharing. The article
presents the results of a quantitative research conducted on a sample of 169 nursing
homes in Poland. The study aimed to examine relationships between the four
constructs of learning orientation and organisational innovativeness of nursing homes in Poland. The regression model confirmed the existing statistically significant positive relationship between open-mindedness and organisational innovativeness.
