Purpose: We investigated the association between empathy for the elderly, the nursing work environment, person-centered care, and geriatric nursing practice among university hospital nurses and factors that affect geriatric nursing practice. Method: We administered questionnaires to 178 nurses between May 23 and June 21, 2022 at a university hospital in city D. We used descriptive statistics, the t-test, one-way analysis of variance, the scheffé test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression analysis for data analysis. Results: We observed a statistically significant positive correlation between nurses' geriatric nursing practice and empathy for the elderly, the nursing work environment, and person-centered care. Empathy for the elderly was positively correlated with the nursing work environment and person-centered care, and the nursing work environment showed a statistically significant positive correlation with person-centered care. Empathy for the elderly and the nursing work environment significantly affected geriatric nursing practice. The overall explanatory power of the regression model was 33.4%. Conclusion: Greater awareness and implementation of various educational programs that promote empathy for the elderly are necessary to improve nursing care for the elderly population. Furthermore, adequate manpower and material support are important to improve the nursing work environment among nurses employed at university hospitals.

본 연구는 간호사들의 근무환경에 따른 직업적 손상 및 신체적, 정신적 건강상태를 비교분석하기 위해 실시되었다. 서울의 한 대학병원에 근무하는 192명의 간호사를 조사대상으로 하였다. 근무환경과 직업적 손상에 따른 건강상태의 각각의 범주를 분석한 결과 신체적, 정신적 건강에 의미있는 차이가 있음을 발견하였다. 교대근무는 고정근무에 비해 직업적 손상과 상당한 관련이 있었다. 또한 밤근무가 다른 근무형태에 비해 간호사들의 신체적, 정신적 건강에 부정적 영향을 미치고 있음이 확인되었다. 따라서 근무환경과 직업적 손상에 의한 그들의 건강상 문제를 고려하여 근무체계가 개발되어야 할 필요가 있다. 그리고 밤근무자들을 위한 추가적인 지원 및 효과적인 밤근무를 위한 연구를 해야 할 것이다.
