To investigate the attitudes and beliefs towards the implementation of nurse prescribing among general nurses and nurse specialists.
A cross-sectional survey among general nurses and nurse specialists was conducted in seven provinces and one autonomous region in mainland China using convenience sampling method.
The attitudes and beliefs towards nurse prescribing were assessed using the Nurse Attitudes and Beliefs towards Nurse prescribing scale, of which Cronbach's coefficient was 0.902, retest reliability was 0.808. Respondents from eight hospitals across the country were employed to complete an online questionnaire.
Nurse specialists (n = 399) had statistically significantly more favourable intentions towards nurse prescribing than general nurses (n = 415; 105.64 ± 12.83 vs. 96.39 ± 13.16; p < .001). The years of clinical work experience, professional title, education degree were positively correlated with general nurses' and nurse specialists' attitudes and beliefs towards nurse prescribing (p < .05). Among nurse specialists, the variety of specialties and whether they work in nurse-led clinics on an outpatient basis have positively influence on their intentions towards nurse prescribing (p < .05).
调查普通护士和专科护士对护士处方实施的态度和信念。
采用便利抽样法,在中国 7 个省和 1 个自治区对普通护士和专科护士进行横断面调查。
采用护士处方态度和信念量表评估护士对处方的态度和信念,该量表的 Cronbach's 系数为 0.902,重测信度为 0.808。来自全国各地 8 家医院的受访者被要求在线填写问卷。
专科护士(n=399)比普通护士(n=415)对护士处方的意向更有统计学意义(105.64±12.83 vs. 96.39±13.16;p<0.001)。工作年限、职称、教育程度与普通护士和专科护士对护士处方的态度和信念呈正相关(p<0.05)。在专科护士中,专业种类的多样性以及是否在门诊护士主导的诊所工作对其处方意向有积极影响(p<0.05)。
