Abstract

Purpose: This study examined the effects of death perception, terminal care stress, and resilience on the terminal care performance of clinical nurses. Methods: As a correlational study, this study conducted a survey total of 189 nurses working at K university hospital and a P university hospital in B metropolitan city for six months or more. The data was collected from August 20th, 2020 to September 15th, 2020. Data were analyzed using the SPSS, Windows version 25.0, according to the purpose of the analysis by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and hierarchical multiple linear regression. Results: The factors having effects on the terminal care performance of subjects were resilience, perception of death, and the experience of terminal care education. The total explanatory power of those variables on the terminal care performance was 21.0%. Conclusion: For the improvement of terminal care performance, it would be necessary to develop a systematic and professional terminal care education program that could increase the positive perception of death and resilience, and also include knowledge and skills necessary for terminal care. Also, the efficiency of terminal care performance should be increased through periodic terminal care-related nursing education.
