This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of stigma for mental disorders among nursing staff in a tertiary care hospital, and the secondary objective of the study was to assess the correlation of stigma with the socio-demographic profile and previous experience with mentally ill patients. This cross-sectional study was performed among the 210 nurses working in a tertiary care multispecialty teaching public sector hospital in north India. They were evaluated on community attitudes toward the mentally ill (CAMI) scale. About two-thirds of the participants (67.1%) were females and had done graduation (64.2%) in nursing. Nearly 50% of the study participants had an experience of working with mentally ill patients. Female had a more significant positive attitude on the domain of social restrictiveness. Authoritarianism had a significant positive correlation with benevolence and social restrictiveness domains. The benevolence domain had a significant correlation with all other domains. Social restrictiveness domain also had a significant correlation with other domains. Nurses have a positive attitude toward mentally ill patients.
本研究旨在评估一家三级护理医院护理人员对精神障碍的污名化流行情况，该研究的次要目的是评估污名与社会人口学特征以及之前照顾精神病患者经验之间的相关性。这项横断面研究在印度北部一家三级护理多专科教学公立医院工作的210名护士中进行。他们接受了社区对精神病患者态度（CAMI）量表的评估。约三分之二的参与者（67.1%）为女性，并且拥有护理学专业本科学历（64.2%）。近50%的研究参与者有过照顾精神病患者的工作经历。女性在社会限制领域表现出更显著的积极态度。权威主义与仁慈和社会限制领域呈显著正相关。仁慈领域与所有其他领域均存在显著相关性。社会限制领域与其他领域也存在显著相关性。护士对精神病患者持有积极态度。
