Abstract

School nurses encountered many workplace struggles while providing care during the COVID-19 pandemic. Several struggles involved organizational support, including having sufficient time, resources, compensation, and school leadership support. The purpose of this mixed methods study was to explore the experiences of school nurses working during the COVID-19 pandemic as they related to sufficient time to complete COVID-related activities, sufficient COVID-19 resources, compensation, and perceived organizational (school leadership) support. We obtained data from 1,564 National Association of School Nurses members regarding respondent characteristics, school characteristics, measures of organizational support, and qualitative perceived organizational support using a 17-question survey. Perceptions of having sufficient time to complete COVID-related tasks and infringement of these tasks on routine activities were worse for those with greater years of experience and education. Compensation for additional COVID-related work was more favorable for LPNs. School leaders should be aware of their role in bolstering organizational support and its impact.

学校护士在 COVID-19 大流行期间对组织支持的体验。

在 COVID-19 大流行期间，学校护士在提供护理时遇到了许多工作上的困难。有几种挣扎涉及到组织支持，包括充足的时间、资源、报酬和学校领导的支持。这项混合方法研究的目的是探讨学校护士在 COVID-19 大流行期间的工作经历，因为这些经历与完成 COVID 相关活动的充足时间、充足的 COVID-19 资源、报酬和感知到的组织（学校领导）支持有关。我们通过一项包含 17 个问题的调查，从 1564 名全国学校护士协会会员处获得了有关受访者特征、学校特征、组织支持措施和定性感知组织支持的数据。对于是否有足够的时间完成 COVID 相关任务以及这些任务对日常活动的影响，工作年限越长、教育程度越高的受访者感知越差。与 COVID 相关的额外工作的报酬对低年资护士更有利。学校领导应意识到他们在加强组织支持方面的作用及其影响。
