dc.description.abstractJob satisfaction (JS) of employees goes a long way in contributing to the unhindered work performance of employees of an organization. Studies have revealed that among several factors that can promote job satisfaction, two are quite prominent. They are institutional support (IS)and career development (CD) practices. A situation whereby these two factors are absent in practice both from a managerial perspective and employee perspective, then job satisfaction level of employees will be undermined. It is in this regard that this study therefore deems it fit to investigate the influence of institutional support and career development on job satisfaction of health information professionals in teaching hospitals in Lagos state. Descriptive research design was adopted. Population consists of 155 health information management professionals in teaching hospitals in Lagos state. 155 health information professionals served as the sample size for this study. Total enumeration sampling technique was adopted as the sampling technique for this study as well. The reliability coefficient for each of the variable ranged from 0.70 to 0.88. Data collected was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings revealed that Institutional Support had significant influence on Job Satisfaction of Health Information Management Professionals (Adj. R2 =.056; p = 0.000), Career Development was also found to significantly influence Job Satisfaction of Health Information Management Professionals (Adj. R2 = .048; p = 0.000). Jointly, Institutional Support and Career Development were found to statistically and significantly influence Job Satisfaction of Health Information Management Professionals (Adj. = .088, F(2, 148) = 8.259, p < 0.05). The study concluded that both Institutional Support and Career Development do independently and jointly influenced Job Satisfaction of Health Information Management Professionals in Teaching Hospitals. In light of this, the study recommended that Management of Teaching Hospitals should improve job conditions of Health Information Management Professionals, give necessary support towards their career growth and development, and review their organizational policies in such a way that provisions for rewarding hard working Health Information Professionals should always be implemented.
