Research studies have demonstrated that nurses face difficulty balancing family roles and responsibilities with work. This study aimed to explore the relationship between work-family conflict and health status and job satisfaction among nurses.
This was a cross-sectional study of 426 nurses working in high-dependency and general settings in a large referral hospital in Brunei Darussalam.
Work-family conflict inversely affects health status and job satisfaction for nurses working in high-dependency and general settings. However, general nurses experienced higher work-family conflict albeit better job satisfaction and health status compared to high-dependency nurses. Older, single and non-smoker nurses reported higher job satisfaction.
This study further informs healthcare and nursing administrators and policymakers, who should foster effective strategies and interventions to support the balance of nurses' work and family life.
研究表明护士在平衡家庭角色和工作责任方面存在困难。本研究旨在探讨工作家庭冲突与护士健康状况和工作满意度之间的关系。
这是在文莱达鲁萨兰国一家大型转诊医院的高依赖和普通病房工作的 426 名护士的横断面研究。
工作家庭冲突对高依赖和普通病房护士的健康状况和工作满意度产生负面影响。然而,与高依赖护士相比,普通护士经历了更高的工作家庭冲突,但工作满意度和健康状况更好。年龄较大、单身和不吸烟者的护士报告工作满意度更高。
本研究进一步为医疗保健和护理管理人员和政策制定者提供了信息,他们应该制定有效的策略和干预措施,以支持护士工作和家庭生活的平衡。
