Abstract

This study was conducted in order to examine the effects of patient safety culture perception and patient safety knowledge on patient safety activities of Chinese-Korean caregivers. A convenience sample of 102 Chinese-Korean caregivers were recruited. Factors influencing Chinese Korean caregivers' patient safety activities included patient safety culture perception and Korean speaking ability. These variables explained 45.8% of the variance in patient safety activities. These results suggest that it is necessary to strengthen patient safety culture perception and to develop some program to enhance their speaking skills in order to improve Chinese Korean caregivers' patient safety activities.

본 연구는 중국동포 간병인의 환자안전문화인식과 환자안전지식이 환자안전활동에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위한 조사연구로 대상자는 중국간병인 102명이었다. 환자안전문화인식의 평균점수는 3.25점, 환자안전지식 평균 3.10점, 환자안전활동 평균 3.39점으로 나타났다. 환자안전문화인식과 한국어 말하기 능력은 환자안전활동에 영향을 미치는 유의한 예측인자로, 환자안전활동 변인을 45.8% 설명하였다. 본 연구는 중국동포 간병인의 환자안전활동을 위해서 환자안전문화인식을 증진시키고 그들의 한국어 말하기 능력을 강화하는 프로그램을 개발하고 적용하는 노력이 필요함을 보여주었다. 따라서 본 연구는 중국동포 간병인의 환자안전문제를 해결하기 위한 프로그램 개발의 근거자료와 노인요양병원 돌봄 서비스의 질 향상을 도모하기 위한 기초자료로 제공할 수 있을 것이다.
