Although ward behaviour rating scales for use with long-stay psychiatric patients by nurses have been in existence for many years, their content tends to reflect the opinions of psychiatrists and psychologists rather than those of nurses. An analysis of five commonly used rating scales illustrates the lack of agreement on what should be included. The opinions of 76 nurses from four separate hospitals were sought, using a 34-item questionnaire, to establish what areas of content were considered important in nursing practice. Apart from agreement on general content, consideration should also be given to the presentation of individual items of ward rating scales.
尽管护士用于长期住院精神科患者的病房行为评定量表已经存在多年,但其内容往往反映的是精神科医生和心理学家的意见,而非护士的意见。对五种常用评定量表的分析表明,对于应纳入哪些内容缺乏共识。通过一份包含34个条目的问卷,征求了来自四家不同医院的76名护士的意见,以确定在护理实践中哪些内容领域被认为是重要的。除了在一般内容上达成一致外,还应考虑病房评定量表单个条目的呈现方式。
