Purpose: The purpose of this study was to empirically test a model of associations linking locations and competition among nursing homes (NHs), mediated by facility grade and registered nurse (RN) turnover, on activities of daily living (ADLs) in Korean NHs. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design to identify causal factors on NH residents’ ADLs. Data were collected from June 2017 to August 2017. A disproportionate stratified cluster sampling method of NHs across Korea was used to gain representation. The collected data consisted of location and the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI), RN turnover rate, facility grade, and NH residents’ ADLs. Results: All pathways affecting ADLs were not significant, and the effect on facility grade was significant in RN turnover (β = -.59, p < .001). RN turnover associated negatively with facility grade. In other words, the higher the RN turnover, the worse the facility grade. Conclusion: This study is the first to examine the impact of location and HHIs, mediated by RN turnover rate and facility grade, on NH residents’ ADLs. To improve residents' ADLs, subsequent studies are needed to identify the factors affecting ADLs utilizing other variables because this study did not identify factors that affect ADLs.
