Abstract

This study was conducted to identify factors influencing turnover intention of nurses that were cohort quarantined during the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome(MERS) outbreak. Subjects of this study were 267 nurses from three hospitals that came in direct or indirect contact with diagnosed MERS and suspected MERS patients and were group quarantined during the 2015 MERS breakout. The data were collected from October 1, 2015 through November 30, 2015. The collected data were evaluated based on descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA and multivariate regression conducted using the SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. The factors influencing turnover intention were work experience and usual stress levels. While nurses tending to MERS patients had the highest stress levels (p<.001), different types of patient care during the MERS outbreak did not yield to a statistically significant turnover intention. Theresults of this study indicate that work experience and usual stress levels impact turnover intention of nurses and because the stress resulting from the MERS outbreak did not significantly affect the turnover intention, further human resource management is required to reduce the usual stress levels of nurses.

본 연구는 메르스 대유행 시 코호트 격리된 병원 간호사의 이직의도 영향요인을 확인하여 추후 감염병 유행 시 간호사 인적관리를 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 시행되었다. 연구대상자는 메르스 대유행 시에 코호트 격리된 3개의 병원에서 메르스 확진환자나 의심환자 간호에 직접 참여하였거나, 메르스 확진 혹은 의심환자를 직접 돌보지는 않았으나 이들 환자가 있는 병동 혹은 병원에 근무한 267명의 간호사이다. 원 자료의 수집은 2015년 10월 1일부터 11월 30일까지 이루어졌으며, 수집된 자료는 SPSS/WIN 21.0을 사용하여 빈도와 백분율, t-test, ANOVA 및 다중 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 대상자의 이직의도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 근무기간과 평소 스트레스로 나타났으며, 메르스 확진환자를 직접 간호한 간호사들의 경우 높은 메르스 스트레스를 경험하였음에도 불구하고(p<.001) 이직의도에는 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 본 연구결과에서 주목해야 할 부분은 치명적인 감염을 야기할 수 있는 메르스 환자 간호에 직 간접적으로 참여한 간호사가 경험한 메르스 스트레스보다 평소 스트레스가 이직의도에 유의한 영향을 미친다는 점이다. 따라서 간호사의 이직의도를 감소시키고, 성공적인 인력관리를 위해서는 감염성 질환과 관련된 특수한 상황에서의 간호사의 스트레스 관리 뿐 아니라 평소 직무특성을 고려한 스트레스 완화에 더 많은 관심을 가질 필요가 있는 것으로 나타났다.
