Civility among critical care nurses is important for achieving positive patient outcomes. Professional comportment refers to nurse behaviors that are respectful, knowledgeable, deliberate, and compassionate.
To examine the relationship between perceptions of nurse-to-nurse incivility and professional comportment among critical care nurses, and the extent to which nurse characteristics influence their perceptions.
Data were collected from nurses in 14 critical care units. Correlational analysis examined the relationship between nurses' perceptions of nurse-to-nurse incivility and professional comportment. Regression analysis was used to identify predictors of nurse-to-nurse incivility.
Decreased perceptions of nurse-to-nurse incivility were associated with increased perceptions of professional comportment. Nurses' reports of receiving education about professional comportment was a significant predictor of increased nurse perceptions of professional comportment.
Professional comportment education for critical care nurses is important and may provide an option to decrease incivility and promote healthy work environments for nurses.
重症监护护士之间的文明行为对于实现积极的患者治疗效果至关重要。专业行为指的是护士表现出尊重、知识渊博、深思熟虑和富有同情心的行为。
探讨重症监护护士对护士间不文明行为的认知与专业行为之间的关系,以及护士特征在多大程度上影响他们的认知。
收集了14个重症监护病房护士的数据。相关性分析考察了护士对护士间不文明行为的认知与专业行为之间的关系。回归分析用于确定护士间不文明行为的预测因素。
对护士间不文明行为的认知减少与对专业行为的认知增加相关。护士报告接受过专业行为教育是护士对专业行为认知增加的一个重要预测因素。
对重症监护护士进行专业行为教育很重要,可能为减少不文明行为和促进护士的健康工作环境提供一种选择。
