This descriptive study was designed to investigate the relationship between nurse practitioners' (NPs) perceptions of collaboration with physician colleagues and level of autonomy NP practice.
A convenience sample of 99 NPs attending a national clinical conference completed the Dempster Practice Behavior Scale (DPBS) and the Collaborative Practice Scale modified for advanced practice nurses.
NPs rated both their perceptions of collaboration with physician colleagues and levels of autonomy as high. Yet, there was no significant correlation between these variables.
Collaboration between NPs and physician colleagues is said to improve the quality and cost of health outcomes and also leads to professional satisfaction. Further research into the relationships between collaboration and autonomy are necessary to understand these complex concepts.
本描述性研究旨在调查执业护士(NP)对与医生同事合作的看法与NP执业自主水平之间的关系。
一个由99名参加全国临床会议的执业护士组成的便利样本完成了邓普斯特执业行为量表(DPBS)以及为高级执业护士修改的合作实践量表。
执业护士对与医生同事合作的看法以及自主水平的评分都很高。然而,这些变量之间没有显著相关性。
据认为,执业护士与医生同事之间的合作可提高健康结果的质量和成本,并带来职业满意度。有必要对合作与自主之间的关系进行进一步研究,以理解这些复杂的概念。
