Abstract

The purpose of this study was to describe and identify factors that affect job satisfaction of nurses in community mental health facilities. The participants were 201 nurses from 59 nationwide community mental health facilities in Korea. The collected data were analyzed using a t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression with SPSS 20.0 for Windows. The mean scores of nursing activity, job stress, and job satisfaction were 2.0, 2.4, and 3.1, respectively. Nursing activity and job stress were significantly correlated with job satisfaction. According to the multiple regression analysis, perceived health status, nursing activity (management of daily living), and job stress explained 21% of the variance in job satisfaction. This study suggested the necessity of developing and conducting programs for job stress reduction and job competency enhancement to improve job satisfaction of nurses in community mental health facilities.

본 연구는 정신요양시설 간호사의 업무활동, 직무스트레스 및 직무만족도 정도를 파악하고 직무만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위해 시도되었다. 본 연구의 대상은 2012년 보건복지부에 등록된 전국 59개 정신요양시설에 근무하고 있는 간호사 201명이다. 자료수집기간은 2011년 7월 1일에서 8월 31일까지였으며, 수집된 자료는 서술통계, t-test, x 2-test, multiple regression을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 정신요양시설 간호사의 직무만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인은 지각된 건강상태, 직무스트레스, 간호업무활동 중 일생생활관리 정도로 나타났으며 이들 전체 변수의 설명력은 21%였다. 따라서 정신간호사들의 전문성을 높이고 직무스트레스를 효율적으로 관리할 수 있는 역량강화프로그램의 개발과 제공이 요구된다.
