초록

현재 우리나라 요양병원은 노인인구 증가와 함께 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 요양병원에 입원하는 환자는 주로 만성질환을 가진 노인들로서 장기요양을 목적으로 하기 때문에 요양병원에서 임종하는 경우가 많아 요양병원에서의 임종간호 중요성이 점점 커지고 있다. 이러한 특징에도 불구하고 요양병원 간호사를 대상으로 임종간호에 대한 연구로는 주로 양적연구들로서 임종간호 경험에 대해 심층적으로 파악하기에 제한이 있다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 현상학적 방법을 통해 요양병원 간호사의 임종환자 간호경험의 의미가 무엇인지 이해하고 그 현상의 의미를 심층적으로 기술하고 이해하고자 함이다. 본 연구의 대상자는 C 시에 위치한 요양병원에서 6개월 이상 근무하고 있는 간호사 7명을 선정하였다. 연구방법은 심층 인터뷰로 2021년 12월부터 2022년 3월까지 자료를 수집하였다. 인터뷰 자료는 Giorgi의 현상학적 방법으로 분석하였다. 연구 결과 '임종간호에 대한 간호사의 태도', '연명에 대한 양가 감정', '요양병원의 임종간호에 대한 현실', '삶과 죽음에 대한 성찰'으로 나타났다. 따라서 요양병원 간호사의 임종간호 태도를 변화시키고 대처능력을 향상시킬 수 있는 임종간호 보수교육 및 중재 교육프로그램이 개발되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Currently, the number of Long-Term Care Hospital in Korea is continuously increasing with the increase in the elderly population. Patients admitted to Long-Term Care Hospital are mainly elderly with chronic diseases, and because they are for long-term care, they often die in Long-Term Care Hospital, and the importance of end-of-life care is gradually increasing. In spite of these characteristics Studies on end-of-life care for nurses in Long-Term Care Hospital are mainly quantitative studies, and there is a limit to in-depth understanding of end-of-life care experiences. Therefore, The purpose of this study is to understand the meaning of Long-Term Care Hospital nurses' nursing experienceof end-of-life patients through a phenomenological method, and to describe and understand the meaning of the phenomenon in depth. The subjects of this study were 7 nurses who had worked for more than 6 months at a nursing hospital located in C city. The research method was in-depth interviews, and data were collected from December 2021 to March 2022. The interview date were analyzed by Giorgi's phenomenological method. As a result of the study, 'nurses' attitude toward end-of-life care', 'ambivalence toward life prolongation', 'reality of end-of-life care in Long-Term Care Hospital', and 'reflection on life and death' were found. Therefore, it is thought that End-of-life nursing Continuing educationand interventional education programs should be developed to change Long-Term Care Hospital nurses' end-of-life care attitudes and improve coping skills.
