Abstract

This study examined the status on job satisfaction and job performance of Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) in Korea. The data was obtained from the 2009 APNs' job satisfaction survey of 452 nurses who received the certificate of APN between 2005 and 2008 conducted by the Korean Accreditation Board of Nursing Education. ANOVA and t-test analyses using SPSS version 14.0 were performed. The average job satisfaction level of the APNs was 2.94 out of 5.00. APNs who were performing jobs as a certified APN had a higher level of job satisfaction (t=.23, p<.001), higher wages (t=2.23, p<.05), promotion in rank (t=2.56, p<.05), more professional job performance (t=10.52, p<.001), greatest trust in their bosses and coworkers (t=5.31, p<.001), and higher confidence in their job performance (t=5.07, p<.001) than those who were not. The government and the nursing community need to provide the APNs' with the appropriate supply and demand polices, as well as a proper incentive system and job improvement.

본 연구는 국내 전문간호사의 직무개선을 위한 기초자료를 제공하기 위해 전문간호사의 직무만족 및 직무수행에 관한 실태를 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 자료는 한국간호교육평가원에서 시행된 '2009년 전문간호사 직무만족도 조사' 원시자료를 이용하여 2005년부터 2008년까지 전문간호사 자격시험에 합격한 452명으로부터 얻었다. 자료분석은 SPSS 14.0 프로그램을 이용하여 평균, t-test 또는 ANOVA를 실시하였다. 전문간호사의 직무만족도는 평균 2.94점/5.00점으로 나타났다. 전문간호사의 자격분야와 동일한 직무를 수행하는 전문간호사가 그렇지 않은 전문간호사에 비해 직무만족(t=.23, p<.001), 임금상승(t=2.23, p<.05), 직급변화(t=2.56, p<.05), 전문적인 직무수행(t=10.52, p<.001), 상사와 동료와의 신뢰감 상승(t=5.31, p<.001), 직무수행에 대한 자신감 상승(t=5.07, p<.001) 등에서 각각 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 그러므로 정부와 간호계는 전문간호사들이 자격분야와 동일한 직무를 수행할 수 있도록 전문간호사의 적절한 인력수급, 보험수가 정책 마련 및 직무개선 등과 같은 노력이 요구될 것으로 사료된다.
