Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to provide basic data necessary to develop education programs and educational services for home care by investigating the degree of patient and family education among home health care nurses. Methods: Data collection was carried out with 145 people from 47 institutions that agreed to participate in the research. A total of 128 questionnaires were received, of which 122 were analyzed. Data were analyzed using SPSS 12.0. Results: The item on which education was most frequently delivered was intravenous injection speed control (66.4%), whereas the item requiring the longest teaching period was pressure ulcer care. The average degree of impediment perceived by home care nurses was 2.82 out of 5. Conclusion: Medical institutions should develop educational materials and programs that reflect the characteristics and degree of home health care needed. Repeated research, including that by medical institutions, on the degree and impeding factors related to patient and family education performance of home health care nurses should be conducted. Moreover, medical institutions should investigate the nursing and educational needs of patients and families who received home health care service.
