“…Previous studies regarding staff's assessment in forensic psychiatric care have focused on, for instance, risk assessment [12], burnout, and job satisfaction [13], what nurses perceived as important in forensic nursing [14], and male caregivers' experiences of giving care to patients [15]. Obviously, little attention has been given to the investigation of staff's assessment of the quality of care in forensic psychiatric services.…”

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the psychometric properties and dimensionality of the instrument Quality in Psychiatric Care-Forensic In-Patient Staff (QPC-FIPS) and to describe the perceived quality of psychiatric care among forensic inpatient service staff. A sample of 348 forensic inpatient staff from 18 forensic wards in Sweden participated in the study. A confirmatory factor analysis revealed a seven-factor structure with item loadings > 0.50 on expected factors, indicating adequate psychometric properties. The staff's ratings of quality of care were high, 94% being positive. The highest ratings were found for the secluded-environment dimension and the lowest for the secure-environment dimension. Several factors influenced the ratings of quality of care, for instance, staff's time to perform their duties and staff's age. It is concluded that the QPC-FIPS can give valuable information about staff's perceptions of the quality of care provided at inpatient forensic psychiatric care services, which can be used to identify areas for quality improvement. Use of the QPC-FIPS is an easy and inexpensive way to evaluate quality in forensic inpatient care, preferably in conjunction with the QPC-FIP instrument developed for forensic inpatients and covering the same items and dimensions.

OBJETIVO: Analisar o nível de satisfação no emprego e o impacto causado nos profissionais de um serviço de saúde mental e possíveis associações com variáveis sociodemográficas e funcionais. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal com 321 profissionais de uma instituição de saúde mental de longa permanência, no Rio de Janeiro, RJ, em 2005. Os instrumentos utilizados foram: as escalas de avaliação da Satisfação da Equipe em Serviços de Saúde Mental e a do Impacto do Trabalho em Serviços de Saúde Mental, e um questionário sobre características sociodemográficas e profissionais. Para a análise das associações entre variáveis foram empregados os testes Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney, qui-quadrado e regressão linear múltipla. RESULTADOS: O escore médio de satisfação foi 3,29±0,64 e o de impacto do trabalho foi 1,77±0,62. Dos profissionais estudados, 61,8% apresentaram nível intermediário de satisfação. Foram observadas associações positivas da satisfação com: ter sido contratado por organização não-governamental, exercer atividades sem contato direto com pacientes, trabalhar em projeto inovador, ter idade mais avançada e nível de escolaridade mais baixo. Os níveis mais elevados de impacto do trabalho foram observados entre servidores públicos, jovens e do sexo feminino. CONCLUSÕES: A maioria das características associadas aos menores níveis de satisfação no emprego esteve associada aos mais elevados níveis de impacto do trabalho. Embora os resultados tenham revelado nível intermediário de satisfação, é evidente a necessidade de mudanças por parte do poder público, especialmente no que diz respeito à ampliação de recursos humanos e materiais e à reforma das edificações.

“…Burnout is a negative experience which results from the relationship between the person and the environment. Some researchers consider conflict to be one of the most important variables in predicting burnout; others relate it to individual variables like depression, anxiety and vulnerability (34,36).…”

“…Numerous researches have also reviewed nurses' burnout levels (17,27,(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36). If the relationship between burnout and pro-ductivity becomes apparent, managers can then provide conditions for the nurses to be more productive.…”

Background: Due to nurses' important role in patients' quality of care and health promotion, it is vitally important that nurses remain productive. Undoubtedly, burnout is one of the factors that has the greatest effect on productivity. If the strong relationship between burnout and productivity is proven, then managers can be encouraged to provide better conditions for nurses to be more productive. Objectives: The current study was conducted to investigate the relationship between productivity and burnout in nurses of the Aja Hospitals in Tehran. Materials and Methods:This cross-sectional study was carried out on 322 clinical nurses working in Aja Hospitals in Tehran. The subjects were recruited by multi-stage sampling methods in 2012-2013. Data was collected using the Persian version of the productivity questionnaire which was prepared by Nayeri et al. and the Maslach Burnout Inventory, which was then analyzed by SPSS software Version: 19, IBM Company. Results: The findings showed that many nurses (35.1%) obtained a high productivity score. From the viewpoint of burnout intensity, the majority of nurses (85.4%) were at medium to high levels in the dimension of emotional exhaustion. Moreover, most (79.8%) obtained high scores in the dimension of depersonalization. In the dimension of personal accomplishment, 61.5% of nurses felt little success. Pearson's correlation coefficient indicated a weak statistical reverse relationship between total productivity score and burnout dimensions (P < 0.001). Conclusions: Based on the high levels of burnout found in this study, greater awareness and knowledge of the contributing factors are essential in order to increase nurses' productivity. Formulating policies in order to remove these contextual factors, prophylaxis, treatment and training methods, and adaptive coping strategies, are also required.
