초록

본 연구는 종합병원에 근무하는 간호사들을 대상으로 생명의료윤리의식과 전문직업성 정도를 파악하여 간호사들의 바람직한 생명윤리관 확립을 위한 교육의 필요성과 방향을 탐색하는 기초자료를 마련하고자 시도하였다. 연구대상자는 G광역시 3개 종합병원에 재직 중인 간호사 163명을 대상으로 하였고, 자료 분석은 SPSS/WIN 24.0 프로그램을 이용하여 통계처리하였다. 본 연구결과 간호사의 생명의료윤리의식은 보통 이상으로 나타났고, 하위 영역 중 태아의 생명권 영역이 가장 높았으며, 인공임신중절 영역이 낮게 나타났다. 대상자의 전문직업성은 보통 이상으로 나타났고, 전문조직에의 준거성 영역이 가장 높았으며, 소명의식 영역의 점수가 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 간호사의 생명의료윤리의식의 함양은 전문직업성과 관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 간호사들에게 시대적 변화와 요구에 따른 확고한 생명윤리 가치관과 생명윤리 의사결정 능력을 갖출 수 있도록 윤리적 판단을 도와줄 수 있는 교육방안과 전문직업성을 향상시킬 수 있는 제도적 장치를 마련해야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate nurses' consciousness of biomedical ethics and professionalism in general hospitals. Participants in this study were 163 nurses working in 3 general hospitals. Data analysis was done using SPSS / WIN 24.0 program. As a result of this study, the consciousness of biomedical ethics of the nurse was moderate. The highest sub-area was 'right to life of fetus' and 'artificial abortion' was the lowest sub-area. The professionalism of the subjects was moderate. The highest sub-area was 'reference professional group' and 'sense of mission' was the lowest sub-area. The nurses' consciousness of biomedical ethics was related to professionalism. Therefore, nurses should be educated to help ethical decision making so that they can have bioethical value and bioethical decision making ability according to the changes and demands of the times. In addition, institutional arrangements to improve professionalism should be provided.
