Abstract

Purpose: This study is aimed to investigate the relationship among terminal care stress, job satisfaction and terminal care performance nurses in internal medicine wards and to provide a basis to improve terminal care performance. Methods: This is a descriptive study performed with 201 nurses who have at least one year of experience and are stationed at the internal medicine department of three general hospitals and three university hospitals in P city of a metropolitan city B. The nurses also had an experience with a dying patient. Data were collected from March 1 through March 31, 2014. The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of Kosin University. Results: Job satisfaction was negatively correlated with stress in end-of-life care (r=-212, P=0.003) and positively correlated with terminal care performance (r=0.383, P<0.001). There was no correlation between terminal care stress and terminal care performance. Conclusion: Appropriate programs are needed to improve job satisfaction for high quality terminal care performance.

목적: 내과병동 간호사들의 임종간호 스트레스, 직무 만족도와 임종간호수행을 파악하고 이들의 관계를 규명하여 내과병동 간호사의 임종간호수행을 증진시킬 수 있는데 필요한 기초 자료를 마련하고자 함이다. 방법: B광역시와 P시에 소재한 3개의 대학병원과 3개의 종합병원에서 임종환자 경험이 있는 1년 이상 근무한 내과병동 간호사 201명을 분석하였다. 2014년 3월 1일부터 3월 31일까지 31일간 이었으며, K대학교 생명윤리위원회의 승인을 받은 후 구조화된 자기기입형 설문지를 사용하였고, SPSS/PC 17.0 통계 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 결과: 대상자의 임종간호 스트레스 정도와 직무만족도 정도의 관계는 미약한 역상관관계(r=-212, P=0.003)가 있는 것으로 나타났고 직무만족도 정도는 임종간호수행 정도의 관계에서 미약한 순상관관계(r=0.383, P<0.001)를 보였다. 임종간호 스트레스 정도와 임종간호수행 정도의 관계는 유의한 상관관계가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 결론: 임종간호수행을 잘 하도록 직무만족도를 높이기 위한 방안이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.
