While one suggested cause of the current nursing shortage is nurses' negative perceptions of the work environment, little is known of nephrology nurses' perceptions of the dialysis work environment. The purpose of this study was to assess the extent to which staff nurses who work in freestanding hemodialysis facilities rate the presence of organizational characteristics common to magnet hospitals in their current job. Study findings indicate that staff nurses in hemodialysis units identify several notable features of magnet hospitals in their work settings. However, a majority of nurses disagreed that many attributes of magnet hospitals are present in hemodialysis work environments. This study provides a preliminary description of some of the factors that affect nurses' perceptions of the work environment in freestanding dialysis facilities. Further work is needed in this area.
虽然当前护士短缺的一个推测原因是护士对工作环境的负面看法，但对于肾病护士对透析工作环境的看法却知之甚少。本研究的目的是评估在独立血液透析机构工作的注册护士对其当前工作中磁体医院常见组织特征的认可程度。研究结果表明，血液透析科室的注册护士在其工作环境中识别出了磁体医院的几个显著特征。然而，大多数护士不同意血液透析工作环境中存在磁体医院的许多属性。本研究初步描述了一些影响护士对独立透析机构工作环境看法的因素。该领域还需要进一步开展工作。
