This study aims to investigate if experience in smoking intervention training influences attitudes toward smoking, discuss the role of health management programs of small- and medium-sized enterprises, and analyze the current attitude of occupational health nurses regarding the hazards of smoking and responsibility to smokers to effectively facilitate smoking cessation support programs.
We conducted an anonymous self-administered cross-sectional survey of 108 nurses employed in occupational health services outsourcing specialized agency in Korea. We assessed the difference in attitude about smoking according to training experience in smoking interventions and perceived competence in counseling smokers using chi-square test and Fisher's exact test.
Occupational health nurses with the training experience of smoking interventions tend to perceive the harmful effects of smoking more seriously, compared to occupational health nurses without the training experience (P = .024, Fisher's exact test) and the OHSO nurses with the training experience tend to have professional ethics as health care professionals (P = .017, Fisher's exact test). Occupational health nurses having expertise in smoking cessation counseling tended to have professional ethics (P = .047, Fisher's exact test) and social responsibility as health care professionals (P = .022, Fisher's exact test).
The occupational health nurses with training experience and expertise in smoking cessation counseling perceive the harmful effects of smoking more strongly and can enhance their professional ethics and social responsibility as health care professionals.
本研究旨在调查吸烟干预培训经历是否会影响对吸烟的态度,探讨中小企业健康管理项目的作用,并分析职业健康护士目前对吸烟危害的态度以及对吸烟者的责任,以有效推动戒烟支持项目。
我们对韩国一家职业健康服务外包专业机构雇佣的108名护士进行了一项匿名的自填式横断面调查。我们使用卡方检验和费舍尔精确检验,根据吸烟干预培训经历和在咨询吸烟者方面的感知能力,评估对吸烟态度的差异。
与没有吸烟干预培训经历的职业健康护士相比,有吸烟干预培训经历的职业健康护士往往更严肃地看待吸烟的有害影响(P = .024,费舍尔精确检验),并且有培训经历的职业健康服务外包护士往往具有作为医疗保健专业人员的职业道德(P = .017,费舍尔精确检验)。在戒烟咨询方面有专长的职业健康护士往往具有职业道德(P = .047,费舍尔精确检验)以及作为医疗保健专业人员的社会责任(P = .022,费舍尔精确检验)。
有戒烟咨询培训经历和专长的职业健康护士更强烈地认识到吸烟的有害影响,并且可以增强他们作为医疗保健专业人员的职业道德和社会责任。
