Short hospital length of stays present new challenges for nurse competencies. The purpose of this study was to describe Finnish nurses' self-assessed level of competencies and their actual use in the ambulatory surgery setting. A cross-sectional descriptive design was used, and the data were collected electronically using the Nurse Competence Scale. Statistical methods were used for analyses. The nurses self-assessed level of competence items ranged from moderate to excellent along with the increased frequency of using competencies. Statistically significant relationship between the level competence and age, work experience, work rotation and permanent position were found. The findings indicate that patient-centred education and ensuring of patients' well-being and safety are the most essential competencies in this setting. Managerial intervention can be focused to increase nursing competencies in these areas.
住院时间短给护士的能力带来了新的挑战。本研究的目的是描述芬兰护士自我评估的能力水平及其在门诊手术环境中的实际应用。采用横断面描述性设计，通过护士能力量表以电子方式收集数据。使用统计方法进行分析。护士自我评估的能力项目随着能力使用频率的增加，从中等到优秀不等。发现能力水平与年龄、工作经验、工作轮值和固定职位之间存在统计学上的显著关系。研究结果表明，以患者为中心的教育以及确保患者的福祉和安全是这种环境中最重要的能力。管理干预可以集中在提高这些领域的护理能力上。
