Abstract

The purpose of this study was to understand death perception, spiritual well-being, and terminal care stress in geriatric hospital nurses and analyze related factors affecting terminal care stress. The participants were 181 nurses working in six geriatric hospitals located in Seoul and Gyonggi Province, Korea. Data were gathered from July 16 to August 1, 2015. The data were analyzed using ANOVA, t-test, Duncan test, and logistic regression. Death perception of geriatric hospital nurses had an average score of 4.30, spiritual well-being 3.40, and terminal care stress 3.84. Terminal care stress in relation to general characteristics showed a meaningful difference in religion and total clinical career. The terminal care stress level was divided into two groups using average score as a standard, and the results revealed that spiritual well-being had a significant impact on terminal care stress of geriatric hospital nurses. These factors need to be considered when developing an educational program to reduce terminal care stress of nurses working in a geriatric hospital.

본 연구는 노인요양병원 간호사의 죽음 인식, 영적 안녕, 임종간호 스트레스의 정도를 파악하고 그 관련요인을 분석하여 임종간호 스트레스를 감소시키기 위한 중재 개발의 기초자료로 제공하기 위한 목적으로 시도 되었다. 연구 대상은 노인요양병원 6곳에 근무하는 간호사 181명이었고, 자료 수집은 2015년 7월 16일부터 2015년 8월 1일 까지 구조화된 자기기입식 설문지로 하였다. 연구결과 노인요양병원 간호사의 죽음 인식은 평균 4.30점, 영적 안녕은 평균 3.40점, 임종간호 스트레스는 평균 3.84점이었고, 일반적인 특성에 따른 임종간호 스트레스는 종교, 총 임상경력에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 임종간호 스트레스의 평균 점수를 기준으로 차이를 분석한 결과 영적 안녕은 임종간호 스트레스에 유의한 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으며(p=.047), 영적 안녕이 평균 평점 1단위 증가할 때마다 임종간호 스트레스가 '상'그룹에 속할 확률이 Odds비 1.702로 나타났다. 노인요양병원의 임종간호 스트레스를 감소시키기 위한 교육프로그램과 간호중재 개발이 요구되며, 임종간호 스트레스 감소를 통해 임종간호의 질을 높이기 위한 노력을 기울여야 할 것이다.
