INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this research project was to investigate midwives' job satisfaction in Australian maternity care settings.
METHODS
A mixed methods pilot study using the convergent parallel design, and a mixed-methods approach was used for this study. The Nursing Workplace Satisfaction questionnaire was used to collect data online via social media platforms, and consisted of Likert Scale responses, and both closed and opened ended questions.
RESULTS
The quantitative results noted an overall positive result to participants' job satisfaction, however there were areas that participants reported as problematic. These areas were delved into further via the results of the qualitative data which highlighted eight themes that explored the participants' perception of the worst things that impacted upon their job satisfaction, and also the best things which impacted in relation to their current jobs.
CONCLUSIONS
This study revealed factors including staff shortages, being time-poor, missing basic human rights like meals and comfort breaks which were linked to midwives' dissatisfaction with their jobs in Australia. The study also identified that midwives valued being of service to women, and that this factor was a driving force in job satisfaction.
引言
本研究项目的目的是调查澳大利亚产科护理环境中助产士的工作满意度。
方法
采用收敛平行设计的混合方法试点研究，本研究使用了混合方法。护理工作场所满意度问卷通过社交媒体平台在线收集数据，包括李克特量表回答以及封闭式和开放式问题。
结果
定量结果显示参与者的工作满意度总体呈积极结果，但参与者报告了一些存在问题的领域。通过定性数据的结果进一步深入研究了这些领域，这些数据突出了八个主题，探讨了参与者对影响其工作满意度的最糟糕事情的看法，以及与他们当前工作相关的最好事情。
结论
本研究揭示了一些因素，包括人员短缺、时间紧张、缺乏用餐和舒适休息等基本人权，这些因素与澳大利亚助产士对工作的不满有关。该研究还发现，助产士重视为女性服务，这一因素是工作满意度的驱动力。
