To assess patients' diagnosed with cancer perceptions on individualized nursing care and quality of oncology nursing care in Cyprus.
This was a descriptive correlational research with 150 patients diagnosed with cancer and receiving treatment as in-patients at three different urban hospitals of Cyprus, based on predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data were collected with the Individualized Care Scale-ICS and the Quality Oncology Nursing Care Scale-QONCS. Statistical significance was set at the 0.05 level.
Data showed that a medium level of support of patients' individuality was provided by nurses (ICS-A mean = 3.41, SD = 0.98) and a high level of realization of perceived individuality in the provided care. Quality of oncology nursing care was found high on three dimensions of care, i.e. being supported and confirmed, being respected and having a sense of belonging. A statistically significant positive correla-tion was observed between the two scales of ICS, i.e. ICS-A and ΙCS-B (r = 0.80), and four of the dimensions of QONCS, i.e. "Being supported and confirmed", "Being cared for religiously and spiritually", "Sense of Belonging" and "Being respected" and all the subscales, i.e. Clinical Situation (r = 0.45, 0.27, 0.41, 0.42), Personal life sit-uation (r = 0.30, 0.51, 0.44, 0.35) and Decision control (r = 0.35, 0.46, 0.35, 0.40).
The correlations found between individualized care and quality of oncology nursing care, highlight the need to provide a more personalized nursing care as a means to achieve a high level of quality nursing care.
评估塞浦路斯癌症患者对个性化护理以及肿瘤护理质量的看法。
这是一项描述性相关性研究，共纳入了 150 名在塞浦路斯的三家不同城市医院接受住院治疗的癌症患者，纳入和排除标准预先确定。使用个体化护理量表（ICS）和肿瘤护理质量量表（QONCS）收集数据。统计显著性水平设定为 0.05。
数据显示，护士为患者提供了中等程度的个性化支持（ICS-A 均值=3.41，SD=0.98），并且在提供的护理中实现了较高程度的个性化感知。肿瘤护理质量在三个护理维度上均较高，即被支持和认可、被尊重和归属感。ICS 的两个量表，即 ICS-A 和 ICS-B（r=0.80），以及 QONCS 的四个维度，即“被支持和认可”、“被宗教和精神关怀”、“归属感”和“被尊重”，以及所有子量表，即临床情况（r=0.45，0.27，0.41，0.42）、个人生活情况（r=0.30，0.51，0.44，0.35）和决策控制（r=0.35，0.46，0.35，0.40）之间存在统计学上的显著正相关。
个性化护理与肿瘤护理质量之间的相关性强调了提供更个性化护理的必要性，这是实现高水平护理质量的一种手段。
