Development and Evaluation of Nursing Work Environment Scale of Clinical Nurses

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine effects of clinical competency and working environment of psychiatric nurses on person-centered care.Methods: This study was conducted in five hospitals located in Daegu city and Gyeongsang-do of South Korea. Participants were 153 psychiatric nurses who had experienced psychiatric nursing practice for at least 12 months. Data were collected from November 15, 2023 to December 31, 2023 using a structured questionnaire. Collected data were analyzed through multiple regression analysis using the SPSS 21.0 program.Results: Participants had a person-centered care score of 3.93 out of 5, a clinical competence score of 3.58 out of 5, and a working condition score of 3.08 out of 4. Regression analysis showed that clinical competence (β=.47, p<.001) and working conditions (β=.38, p<.001) were factors affecting person-centered care, with an explanatory power for person-centered care of 49.8% (F=36.42, p<.001).Conclusion: To enhance person-centered nursing competency of psychiatric nurses, it is essential to enhancing their working conditions and improving their clinical competence.

Objectives: This study aimed to examine the association between psychiatric nurses’ empathy, teamwork, nursing work environment, and the degree of person-centered care, as well as to identify factors influencing person-centered care (PCC). Methods: An online cross-sectional survey was conducted from 11 January to 19 January 2024, using four validated questionnaires. Results: Participants included 167 psychiatric nurses with more than one year of clinical experience working in South Korea. Person-centered care was positively correlated (p < 0.001) with empathy, teamwork, and the nursing work environment. Hierarchical regression analysis was used to identify factors influencing person-centered care among psychiatric nurses. The analysis revealed that the nursing work environment (p < 0.001), teamwork (p < 0.001), empathy (p < 0.001), type of hospital (general hospital) (p = 0.002), and age (p = 0.037) significantly influenced person-centered care, explaining 78.7%. Conclusions: Enhancing PCC among psychiatric nurses requires the development of training and educational programs that bolster empathy and teamwork. Additionally, improvements and strategic enhancements to the nursing work environment are essential.
