The objectives of Psychiatric Reform were, on the one hand, psychiatric hospitals' shutting down and, on the other hand, the creation of Psychosocial Rehabilitation facilities, in order to provide appropriate care to individuals suffering from mental health problems in community. Therefore, mental health professionals' job satisfaction constitutes one of the fundamental factors leading either to success or failure of each reforming effort.
The aim of this study was to investigate the level of professional satisfaction of nurses working in Psychosocial Rehabilitation facilities compared to other mental health professionals.
Three hundred and sixty-seven mental health professionals, working in the field of psychosocial rehabilitation completed (a) a sociodemographic questionnaire, and (b) Spectοr's Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS).
Moderate levels of total professional satisfaction were observed. Low satisfaction rates were recorded in "Pay," "Promotion," and "Fringe Benefits" subscale. High satisfaction rates were recorded in "Supervision," "Cooperation between colleagues," and "Nature of work," while moderate satisfaction rates were reported in "Contingent rewards," "Operating procedures," and "Communication" within facilities. It is noteworthy that nurses were statistically significant less satisfied with the "Contingent rewards" (p = 0.028), the "Nature of work" (p = 0.001), and the "Communication" (p = 0.019), while they were statistically significant more satisfied with "Supervision" (p = 0.007) compared to the other specialties of mental health professionals.
The results can be used by those with administrative and scientific responsibilities in the field of mental health in order to recognize professionals' difficulties and solve their problems in psychosocial rehabilitation facilities. These interventions could improve their levels of job satisfaction, in order to achieve optimal therapeutic results for mentally ill and improve the quality of the services provided.
精神科改革的目标,一方面是关闭精神病院,另一方面是建立心理社会康复设施,以便为社区中患有心理健康问题的个人提供适当护理。因此,心理健康专业人员的工作满意度是每项改革努力成败的基本因素之一。
本研究旨在调查与其他心理健康专业人员相比,在心理社会康复设施工作的护士的职业满意度水平。
367名从事心理社会康复领域工作的心理健康专业人员完成了(a)一份社会人口统计学问卷,以及(b)斯佩克特工作满意度调查(JSS)。
观察到总体职业满意度处于中等水平。在“薪酬”“晋升”和“福利待遇”子量表中记录到较低的满意度。在“监督”“同事间合作”和“工作性质”方面记录到较高的满意度,而在设施内的“偶然奖励”“操作程序”和“沟通”方面报告的满意度为中等。值得注意的是,与其他心理健康专业领域相比,护士在“偶然奖励”(p = 0.028)、“工作性质”(p = 0.001)和“沟通”(p = 0.019)方面的满意度在统计学上显著较低,而在“监督”方面的满意度在统计学上显著较高(p = 0.007)。
心理健康领域的行政和科研人员可以利用这些结果,以认识到专业人员在心理社会康复设施中的困难并解决他们的问题。这些干预措施可以提高他们的工作满意度水平,以便为精神病患者取得最佳治疗效果并提高所提供服务的质量。
