Coaching Leadership in the context of the Mobile Emergency Care Service* * Extracted from the thesis: “Liderança Coaching e satisfação no trabalho no contexto do atendimento pré-hospitalar móvel no Estado de Goiás”, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Enfermagem Fundamental, Escola de Enfermagem de Ribeirão Preto, Universidade de São Paulo, 2018.

Objective:

To analyze the Coaching Leadership exercised by nursing coordinators in the Mobile Emergency Care Service units, in the coordinators and nursing technicians’ perception, in addition to its correlation with three sociodemographic variables.

Method:

Descriptive and analytical study carried out on nursing coordinators and nursing technicians from the pre-hospital care units, using the Coaching Leadership questionnaires and the Spearman correlation test to analyze the results.

Results:

11 nursing coordinators and 155 nursing technicians participated in the study. The Coaching Leadership exercise was observed in the perception of two professional categories: “giving and receiving feedback”, which was the domain with the highest average for the coordinators (21.45; SD=2.84); and “communication” (20.43; SD=5.57) for technicians. Furthermore, in the coordinators’ self-perception of the Coaching Leadership, there was an indirect correlation between the domains “giving and receiving feedback” (Spearman −0.720; p-value 0.012) and “total scale score” (Spearman −0.652 and p-value 0.029) with regard to “training time”.

Conclusion:

The research results indicate significant contributions to nursing practices and denote this competence impact on the pre-hospital care nursing staff, in the work environment, and in the care provided to the patient.
