Nurses in hospital administration and management positions may experience workplace stress, which can have important consequences on the health and well-being.
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of perceived stress on nursing hospital management and administrative employees of a large health care organization before and after a review by The Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations.
A total of 100 hospital employees were randomly selected to complete questionnaires assessing their perception of stress and its effect on their well-being before and after the site review. They were also asked to rate their subjective experience of sleep, anxiety, depression, and job satisfaction.
Perceived stress was significantly related to employees' increased health concerns, symptoms of depression and anxiety, interpersonal relationships, and job satisfaction (p = .003).
Hospital accreditation reviews may increase perceived stress and appears to be related to emotional and physical well-being.
The implications include evidence there is a need for organizations to initiate corrective action to help nurses in administrative roles to cope with increased levels of job strain, minimize potential psychological and physiological consequences, and preserve job satisfaction.
担任医院行政管理职位的护士可能会经历工作场所压力，这可能会对健康和幸福产生重要影响。
本研究的目的是在医疗机构评审联合委员会进行评审之前和之后，考察感知压力对一家大型医疗保健机构中从事医院管理和行政工作的护士的影响。
总共随机选取100名医院员工，让他们在现场评审之前和之后完成问卷，评估他们对压力的感知及其对幸福感的影响。他们还被要求对自己在睡眠、焦虑、抑郁和工作满意度方面的主观体验进行评分。
感知压力与员工对健康问题的更多担忧、抑郁和焦虑症状、人际关系以及工作满意度显著相关（p = 0.003）。
医院评审可能会增加感知压力，并且似乎与情绪和身体健康有关。
其意义在于有证据表明，组织需要采取纠正措施，以帮助担任行政职务的护士应对增加的工作压力，将潜在的心理和生理后果降至最低，并保持工作满意度。
