간호학생의 재해관련 경험, 재해간호에 대한 인식 및 재해간호 핵심수행능력

Disaster Experience, Perception and Core Competencies on Disaster Nursing of Nursing Students

본 연구는 간호학생의 재해관련 경험, 재해간호에 대한 인식과 재해간호 핵심 수행능력 정도를 파악함으로써 재해간호 교육과정의 개발 및 발전에 필요한 기초자료를 제공하고자 시도된 서술적 상관관계연구이다. 연구결과, 전체대상자 중 20.3%가 재해를 직접 경험하거나 목격한 경험이 있고, 75.6%의 대상자가 재해관련 교육 경험이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 재해간호 인식 정도는 25점 만점에 평균 18.16점이었고, 핵심 수행 능력은 75점 만점에 평균 41.56점으로 나타났다. 재해간호 인식 정도는 핵심 수행 능력과 양의 상관관계를 보이며 통계적으로 유의하였다(r=.155, p<.05). 이상의 결과를 토대로 볼 때, 재해현장에서 요구되는 핵심 수행능력을 반영한 교육내용의 표준화와 재해간호 영역에서 간호학생을 대상으로 한 연구의 활성화가 필요하다.

Disaster Experience, Perception and Core Competencies on Disaster Nursing of Nursing Students. This paper was aimed to investigate disaster experience, perception and core competencies on disaster nursing of nursing students and to provide basic data needed for development of disaster nursing program. 172 nursing students enrolled in a department of nursing completed questionnaires. The data were collected from December 1, 2012 to December 23, 2012. The result were as follows; The average level of perception about disaster nursing was 18.16 out of 25 points, suggesting that they generally perceived disaster nursing as an important matter. Core competencies of the subjects on disaster nursing was 41.56 out of 75 points, which was moderate for the core competencies on disaster nursing. There was statistically significant positive correlation between the perception about disaster nursing and core competencies on disaster nursing. It is necessary to develop disaster nursing program to reflect the needs of the field in Korea. Further research is needed to adequately address this issue.
