Observational field techniques were used to explore the dimensions of psychological support provided by experienced night nursing staff on an acute oncology unit in a Canadian tertiary care setting. This study confirms the findings of an earlier British pilot study surrounding the essential role that nurses play in meeting the psychosocial needs of cancer patients during the night shift on oncology wards. Categories included comfort care, monitoring, facilitating patient control, responding to the family, collegial support, and contextual factors. The findings confirm the need to raise the awareness of other health care professionals regarding the psychological support role night nurses undertake.
采用观察性实地技术，探讨加拿大三级护理机构中急性肿瘤病房经验丰富的夜班护理人员提供心理支持的维度。本研究证实了早期一项英国试点研究的结果，该研究围绕护士在肿瘤病房夜班期间满足癌症患者心理社会需求方面所发挥的重要作用。类别包括舒适护理、监测、促进患者控制、回应家属、同事支持和背景因素。研究结果证实，有必要提高其他医护人员对夜班护士所承担的心理支持角色的认识。
