Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the influence of second victim experiences following patient safety incidents and positive psychological capital on the intention to remain among advanced beginner nurses working at tertiary hospitals. Methods: The participants were 179 nurses with a clinical experience of 13 to 36 months at two tertiary hospitals. We collected data using questionnaires related to second victim experiences, positive psychological capital, and intention to remain. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Scheffé test, Pearson correlation, and hierarchical regression analysis. Results: The intention to remain in advanced beginner nurses was negatively correlated with second victim experiences and positively correlated with positive psychological capital. A hierarchical multiple regression model with control variables (subjective job satisfaction and self-assessed work proficiency), psychological capital, and second victim experience accounted for 26% of the factors that influenced advanced beginner nurses' intention to remain. Among the related factors, the most influential was subjective job satisfaction. Second victim experience and positive psychological capital also influenced the advanced beginner nurses' intention to remain. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest a need to develop a program that helps promote intention to remain for nurses at the advanced beginner stage by minimizing second victim experiences and improving positive psychological capital and the work environment.

Nursing role tends to be more complex then before because of the increased number of health professionals and of the health needs of patient. Accordingly, nursing role expectations are various and sometimes conflict by its role set. There are various literatures on role conflict of nurses and discussed how to eliminate the conflict in order to improve nursing service particularly in the hospital organization. This study was designed to determine if role conflict exist among nurses who work in a hospital and if so what resolution were most frequently selected by the nurses to the role conflict. The study population was fifty six registered nurses of K university hospital. The fifty six was defined and selected by nonproportional stratified sampling method to obtain subjects who are from uniform role set. A questionnaire, a list of role connect, stimulated by the literature review, knowledge based on several years' experience in nursing was formulated by the author and administered to the study population. The questionnaire included twenty nine closed question items of role conflict and classified according to the intra sender conflict, intersender conflict, person conflict and interperson conflict. The response choices to the questions range on a scale continuum with degrees of conflict from one to five: never - 0, seldom - 1, occasionally - 2, frequently - 3, and mostly -4. Per cent, means, standard deviation, and x² -test were used to analyze data. The findings of the study could be summarized as follows. 1. General characterstics of the study population: Most of the population were between the age of 22-27 and are not married. 2. Analysis of Role conflict Existence of Role conflict of nurses was found by the total mean conflict score, 2.06. Inter Sender Role conflict revealed the most high mean conflict score and the lowest one was inter person role conflict. Among the five role senders of nurses: Physician, patient and hi9 family, peer and superior, nursing students and hospital administrator, nurses showed the highest conflict mean score for physicians and the lowest score for Nursing student. 3. Analysis of role conflict resolution. Compromise through discussion with the role sender was the most frequently selected method by the respondents. The result also showed that the respondents tend to resolve the conflicting situation created by patient or his family by persuation.

Purpose: This descriptive survey was aimed to investigate the ICU nurses' job stress, the way of coping, and the turnover intention and to identify the correlation among them. Methods: A 58 items-questionnaire composed of 7 sub-dimensions revised by Park, J. S. (2003) was used to measure the ICU nurses' job stress, and an questionnaire by Han, J. S. and Oh, G. S. (1990) which has 34 items from 6 sub-dimensions were used to measure the ICU nurses' way of coping. To figure out the ICU nurses' turnover intention, a 3 items-questionnaire used. A total of 456 nurses were participated in the study. Results: The participants' job stress was 2.86(4-point scale), and the way of stress coping was 2.27. Job stress had a positive correlation with the way of coping (r=.134, p=.004) and the turnover intention. The 54.1% of nurses addressed that they had some level of turnover intention. The turnover intention had a significant difference according to job stress(t=-2.041, p=.042), the type of hospital (${\chi}^2=8.052$, p=.005) and the total number of hospital beds (${\chi}^2=9.232$, p=.010). Conclusion: The findings of the study illustrated that the ICU nurses had at least moderate-high level of stress. The subjects' job stress showed a positive correlation with the way of coping and the turnover intention. These findings demonstrate necessity to develop an intervention for ICU nurses' stress management.

Purpose: This study was done to identify the core concepts and structure of difficult experiences of charge nurses in general hospitals. Methods: Data were collected from August 1 to September 5, 2014. Participants were 10 nurses from general hospitals in D and S cities. Parse research method was applied to examine lived experiences of the participants. The procedure of study was based on dialogical engagement and data were analyzed by extraction-synthesis and interpreted heuristically. The research question was "Would you tell me about your difficult experiences as a charge nurse?" Results: Job-related difficulties of the charge nurses were conflicts due to ineffective communication, heavy workload, not feeling respected, role conflict, and struggling to overcome difficulties with sense of responsibility to the work. The conceptual integration was: to be in the process of being originated and transformed through connecting-separating and enabling-limiting with valuing. Conclusion: Structural conversion of these concepts reveals that charge nurses suffer from the job-related difficulties identified in this study, but they endure to proceed with a sense of mission. It is suggested that supportive interventions should be made to let charge nurses express their feelings, identify their needs, and develop self-care or coping skills for themselves.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe nurses' recognition of, and practice level in management of general nosocomial infections, and methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE) infections. Method: A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data. Data were collected on June, 2003 from 190 nurses in one university affiliated hospital located in Suwon. Result: The mean score for nurses' recognition of general nosocomial infection control was 3.57, MRSA control was 3.54, and VRE control was 3.86. The mean score on practice for control of general nosocomial infection was 3.19, for MRSA control, 3.20, and for VRE control, 3.63. There were statistically significant relationships between the recognition level and practice level for general nosocomial, MRSA, and VRE infection control. According to the general characteristics of the nurses, the mean scores for both recognition and practice were higher for those nurses who had had infection control education, for those who had worked longer in nursing, and for those who worked in the ICU. Conclusion: It is suggested that appropriate hospital infection control programs should be developed through continuous education and practice to improve nurses' level of the practice in general infection control, and especially in MRSA and VRE infection control.

본 연구는 간호사를 대상으로 병원조직에서 겪은 태움에 관한 경험의 의미와 본질적인 구조를 파악하기 위한 질적 연구이다. 참여자는 해당 병원의 협조를 받아서 직장내 SNS를 통하여 연구에 참여하겠다고 동의한 자를 대상으로 10명을 선정하여 면담을 진행하였다. 수집된 자료는 Colaizzi의 현상학적 방법을 적용해 분석하였다. 연구 결과 간호사의 병원조직 내 태움은 4개의 범주(지독한 첫발 내딛기, 끝날 것 같지 않은 힘듦의 연속, 스스로 버텨봄, 적응을 위한 비상의 날갯짓 하기)와 16개의 주제들로 도출되었다. 결론적으로 태움은 신규간호사 뿐만 아니라 경력을 쌓은 간호사들조차도 여전히 현재진행형이므로 힘든 병원조직에 적응을 하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 간호사들을 위한 심리적 지원프로그램을 도입한다면 태움 문제를 해결하고, 간호사들이 존중 받는 조직문화를 이루는데 기여할 것이다.
