Purpose: To analyze Korean nurse-related channels and video titles on YouTube, the world's largest online video sharing and social media platform, to clarify public opinion and image of nurses. We seek utilization strategies and measures through current status analysis. Methods: Data is collected by crawling video information related to Korean nurses, and correlation is analyzed with frequent word analysis and keyword network analysis. Results: Through the YouTube algorithm, 2,273 videos of 'Nurse' were analyzed in order of recent views, relevance, and rating, and 2,912 videos searched for with the keyword 'Nurse + Hospital, COVID-19, Awareness, University, National Examination' were analyzed. Numerous videos were uploaded, and nursing work that was uploaded in the form of a vlog recorded a high number of views. Conclusion: We could see if the YouTube video shows images of nurses.

본 연구의 목적은 간호대학생의 간호사 이미지와 간호전문직간의 관련성을 파악하기 위함이다. D광역시 소재의 간호학과에 재학 중인 학생 147명을 대상으로, 2013년 3월 11일부터 3월 22일까지 자가 보고식 설문조사로 시행되었다. 연구결과, 간호사 이미지는 동아리 활동, 전공만족도, 대학생활 만족도에 있어 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 간호전문직관은 전공만족도에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 간호대학생의 간호사 이미지와 간호전문직관은 순상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 간호사 이미지 중에는 '사회참여' 영역이 간호전문직관과 가장 큰 상관관계를 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, 간호사 이미지와 가장 강한 상관관계를 나타낸 간호전문직관 하위영역은 '전문직 자아개념'이었다. 그러므로 전공만족도와 대학생활 만족도를 향상시키기 위한 다양한 학습전략 마련, 동아리 활동 장려, 교수의 관심과 지도가 간호대학생의 간호사 이미지와 간호전문직관 향상에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

The hospital is not the place for functional isolationalism, that is, for each department to do their own activities independently. Rather it is an organization in which each part is joined together and concentrating on the same objectives. The hospital must maintain a one-system-function, so that all the resources of the hospital may be used efficiently. Although we do not yet completely understand how the nursing image as perceived by the medical team and the other members of the interdisciplinary team affects nursing practice. It is important to identify how the client recognizes the nursing image as this will influence the growth of the nursing profession directly and indirectly. So we must reevaluate the nursing image as presented to the client and find the ways to present them with a better image of nursing. The study procedures were as follow; First, the image of nurses was analyzed. The subjects for this study were 270 nurses, 172 doctors, 237 hospital employees, and 240 patients and their families from 5 local branches of the Yonsei Medical Center. The four negative responses shown in this study are as follows; 1) Nurses don't listen to patients. 2) Nurses are self-centered. 3) Nurses and careless. 4) Nurses are mechanical. Second, the concrete causes of the four negative responses were analyzed. Third, the contribution of the nurses for clinical practice, research and education was analyzed. Data were collected by questionnaires all seps of the research. Data were analyzed by use of SPSS/PC. In conclusion, the image of nurses differed according to which group, the respondents belonged. Generally, the public have a positive image of nurses, but hospital employees have a negative images of nurses. Further the nurses gave themselves a low grade. They showed negative as to the value of their job, professionality and their contribution to clinical practice when it was compared to that of the doctors.

The main purpose of this research was to provide an example of a scientific and systematic approach to designing nurses' uniforms. Uniforms for the staff nurses and head nurses at Korea University Medical Centers were designed through the following four steps: research and analyses, design direction establishment, design presentation, and final decision. For the research and analyses, a focused group interview with 14 head nurses were conducted before the actual questionnaires were formed and distributed to 200 nurses at the medical centers. The data collected from 182 among 200 subjects were able to be used for the statistical analyses. As a result, the majority of nurses were not satisfied with the present nurse uniforms. They preferred pants to skirts, and straight pants to tapered pants. Blouses or jackets that slightly cover hips with sleeves reaching above the wrists were also preferred. Many respondents wanted uniforms that were practical and easy to manage. The ideal image of nursing uniforms were feminine, lively, active, light, cool, simple, and modern. According to the research and analyses result, design directions were established and uniform designs were presented to head nurses. Uniforms were designed based on symbols of Korea University and Korea University Medical Centers. Colors including white, pink, and grey were selected to represent the ideal image of nursing uniforms designated by the respondents. Fabrics including polyester(95%) and spandex(5%) blends, polyester(48%), rayon(48%), and spandex(4%) blends, and cotton(100%) were used for making garment samples. Final designs were decided by selecting and modifying the designs presented to the head nurses.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of Problem-based Learning (PBL) in an interdisciplinary college class. This class was run under the theme of 'Nurse Social Content Creators' (NSCC) in the Korean Nurses Association (KNA)'s industry-university collaborative project designed to promote a positive image of nurses among the public. Methods: Study 1 examined changes in perception about nurses among the PBL participants before and after the program. A one-group pre-post test experimental design was applied, and the data were analyzed using a Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Study 2 identified differences of perceptions of nurses between people who had observed the PBL final presentation and people who had not. A post-test-only with nonequivalent group experimental design was used, and the data were analyzed using a Mann-Whitney U test. Results: Study 1 revealed a significant increase of positive perceptions towards nurses. Study 2 revealed a significant difference between the PBL presentation audience group and the control group. Students who had observed the PBL program showed more positive perceptions of nurses than students who had not. Conclusion: This research is an important study with high practicality in the area of media studies as well as in nursing. The PBL teaching method was proven to be effective in enhancing perceptions of nurses.

신규간호사의 경우 간호수행을 위한 전문지식과 기술이 부족할 뿐만 아니라 학교에서 배운 이론적 지식을 실제 업무수행에 적용시키는데 어려움을 겪게 된다. 이에 본 연구는 신규간호사의 간호업무수행능력에 영향을 주는 요인들을 밝혀 간호업무수행능력향상 중재 시 그 기초자료를 제공하고자 시행되었다. 본 연구대상자는 신규간호사 182명이며, IBM SPSS 23.0 프로그램을 이용해 자료를 분석하였다. 본 연구결과 업무수행능력은 간호사 수, 근무병원이 실습을 했던 병원인 경우, 간호사 이미지에 따라 유의한 차이가 나타났다(p<.05). 업무수행능력은 회복탄력성(r = .50), 감정노동(r = .62)과 유의미한 상관관계를 보였고(p <.001), 신규 간호사의 업무수행능력의 유의한 영향 요인은 회복탄력성(β = .567)과 감정노동(β = .332)이었으며, 총 설명력은 50.5%(p <.001)이었다. 신규간호사의 업무수행능력의 영향요인을 고려한 맞춤식 중재가 필요하다.

Purpose: This study explored the meaning of the social perceptions of nurses in online news articles during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Methods: A total of 339 nurse-related articles published in Korean online newspapers from January 1 to December 31, 2020, were extracted by entering various combinations of OR and AND with the four words "Corona," "COVID," "Nursing," and "Nurse" as search keywords using BIGKinds, a news database provided by the Korea Press Foundation. The collected data were analyzed with a keyword network analysis and topic modeling using NetMiner 4. Results: The top keywords extracted from the nurse-related news articles were, in the following order, "metropolitan area," "protective clothing," "government," "task," and "admission." Four topics representing keywords were identified: "encouragement for dedicated nurses," "poor work environment," "front-line nurses working with obligation during the COVID-19 pandemic," and "nurses' efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19." Conclusion: The media's attention to the dedication of nurses, the shortage of nursing resources, and the need for government support is encouraging in that it forms the public opinion necessary to lead to substantial improvements in treating nurses. The nursing community should actively promote policy proposals to improve treatment toward nurses by utilizing the net function of the media and proactively seek and apply strategies to improve the image of nurses working in various fields.
