The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship among staffing, occupancy rate, upward level change of long-term care need, and evaluation grade of facility. Data were obtained from National Health Insurance Corporation Database. Occupancy rate and evaluation grade were highest in National/public operating facilities, while they were worst in individual operating facilities. The percents of A or B grade in evaluation grade (by newly enforced law) is highest in National/public operating facilities. Multiple regression analysis showed that upward level change of care needs was very weakly associated with the number of doctors. Evaluation grade showed a weak and significant association with occupancy ratey(by old-version law)(r=.20, p<.01), upward level change of care need in group home(r=.23, p<.01) Staffing in facility did not show significantly consistent association with upward level change of care needs, evaluation grade, and occupancy rate.

본 연구는 종합병원에 근무하고 있는 간호사의 사회심리적 요인(A형 행동유형, 자기존중감, 통제신념, 불안), 직무스트레스 및 피로수준이 간호서비스의 질에 미치는 영향을 규명하고자 시도하였다. 연구대상은 대전광역시의 6개 종합병원에 근무하고 있는 간호사 503명으로 하였으며, 자료 수집은 2014년 4월 1일부터 6월 30일까지의 기간 동안에 구조화된 무기명 자기기입식 설문조사에 의하였다. 공분산 구조분석에 의한 연구결과, 사회심리적 요인은 직무스트레스나 피로보다 간호서비스의 질에 더 큰 영향을 미쳤으며, 사회심리적 요인에서 자기존중감이 높고, 불안감이 낮으며, 직무스트레스와 피로도가 낮을 수록 간호서비스의 질을 높이는 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이 같은 연구결과는 종합병원 간호사들의 간호서비스의 질은 사회심리적 요인(자기존중감, 불안), 직무스트레스 및 피로와 유의한 관련성이 있음을 시사한다.

Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, Cronbach's a, and multiple regression. Results: The self-efficacy was significantly correlated with exercise while Yangsaeng had significant correlation with age and exercise. QOL was significantly influenced by gender, cause of disease, and exercise. Self-efficacy and Yangsaeng positively correlated to QOL. Self-efficacy and Yangsaeng influenced on QOL in 34.9% of the hemodialysis patients.

Purpose : This study aims to identify job stress, emotional intelligence, and exhaustion of the nurses in comprehensive nursing service units and then verify the moderating and mediating effects of emotional intelligence on the relationship between job stress and exhaustion. Methods : Participants are 118 nurses working in two general hospitals. The collected data are analyzed using the SPSS WIN 27.0 and AMOS 18.0 programs by assessing frequency and percentage, mean and standard deviation, independent t-test and one-way ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and hierarchical multiple regression analysis and bootstrapping. Results : Exhaustion has a statistically significant positive correlation with job stress (r=.40, p <.001) and a statistically significant negative correlation with emotional intelligence (r=-.26, p =.004). A partial mediating effect of emotional intelligence is found between job stress and exhaustion, however, there is no moderating effect. Conclusion : It is expected that to reduce the exhaustion of nurses in comprehensive nursing service units, it is necessary to assess job stress and emotional intelligence, and strengthen emotional intelligence along with job stress intervention.
