Abstract

本研究の目的は,急性期病院における認知症看護の質評価に関連する要因を明らかにすることである.認知症ケア加算を取得している急性期病院の看護師1,142名を対象に,無記名自記式質問紙調査留め置き法を用いた.調査内容は個人属性,組織属性,認知症に関する知識,倫理的行動,認知症看護の質評価とし,有効回答数は835部であった.従属変数を認知症看護の質評価,独立変数を認知症看護の質評価と各変数の単変量解析で有意差があった変数とし,重回帰分析を実施した.重回帰分析の結果,認知症看護の質評価に関連する要因は,倫理的行動の「リスク回避」と「善いケア」であった.認知症患者が感じている苦痛や危険を予測し回避する「リスク回避」の倫理的行動と,認知症患者の意思を模索しながら常に最善を考えて行動する「善いケア」の倫理的行動を高めることが認知症看護の質評価につながる可能性が示唆された.今後は認知症看護の質向上のために,急性期病院の看護師の倫理的行動をどのように高めていくか検討していく必要がある.

Translated Abstract

The purpose of this study is to clarify factors related to the quality evaluation of dementia nursing care in acute hospitals. We conducted a survey that consisted of individual attributes, organizational attributes, knowledge about dementia, ethical behavior scales, and quality evaluation of dementia nursing. The number of valid responses was 835. The dependent variable was the quality assessment of dementia nursing, and the independent variable was the variables in which there were significant differences in the quality evaluation of dementia nursing care and the univariate analysis of each variable. Multiple regression analysis results showed that the factors related to the quality assessment of dementia nursing were “risk aversion” and “good care” of ethical behavior. The ethical behavior of “risk aversion” meant to sense the distress felt by dementia patients and to avoid pain and danger in the hospitalization environment. It was suggested that enhancing the ethical behavior of “good care”, which means always thinking and acting for the best while searching for the will of dementia patients, may lead to quality evaluation of dementia nursing.
