Abstract

The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for developing future ethics education programs by surveying healthcare providers working at institutions of various sizes, using Ethical Issues in Clinical Practice tool. Data were collected from 149 healthcare providers working at medical institutions in G-do. Analysis was done using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and Multiple regression with IBM SPSS WIN/21.0. Needs for ethics education was inversely correlated to end-of-life treatment issues (r=-.22, p=.007) and patient care issues (r=-.28, p<.001). The most influential factor on the subjects' needs for ethics education was patient care issues (β=-.246, p=.035), followed by Buddhism (β=.208, p=.010). The explanatory power was 13.4% (F=5.596, p<.001). Therefore, when organizing the contents of ethics education program, patient care issues should be included to meet the needs of the subjects. Also, a customized program regarding the subjects' religion is necessary.

본 연구는 다양한 규모의 의료기관에 근무하는 의료인을 대상으로 Ethical Issues in Clinical Practice 도구로, 윤리교육 요구에 대한 내용을 조사하여 추후 윤리교육 프로그램 개발에 도움이 되는 기초자료를 제공하고자 시도되었다. G도에 소재한 의료기관의 의료인 149명을 대상으로 자료수집 하였다. IBM SPSS WIN/21.0을 이용하여 t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, Multiple regression을 사용하였다. 윤리교육 필요성은 말기치료결정 이슈(r=-.22, p=.007), 환자간호 이슈(r=-.28, p<.001)와 역상관관계가 있었다. 대상자의 윤리교육 필요성에 가장 영향을 미치는 요인은 환자간호이슈(β=-.246, p=.035)이었고, 그 다음으로 불교(β=.208, p=.010)이었다. 수정된 설명력은 13.4%이었다(F=5.596, p<.001). 윤리교육 프로그램 내용을 구성할 때 대상자의 요구도를 반영하여 환자간호 이슈 내용과, 대상자의 종교를 반영한 맞춤형 프로그램 마련이 필요하며, 윤리교육 프로그램 개발에 도움이 되는 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
