Abstract

Objectives: Study objectives were to explore nurses' perceptions of self-care, co-worker, and leader caring within healthcare work environments and assess reliability of 3 Watson Caritas Scores.

Background: Assessing caring in an organization where Watson's Theory of Human Caring guides nursing practice offers insight into the professional practice environment.

Method: This study reports quantitative data from mixed-methods descriptive, cross-sectional survey of 1307 RNs at a large healthcare system.

Results: Mean scores were self = 5.46, co-worker = 5.39, and leader score = 5.53, and median scores were >5.6 (range, 1-7). All scales had a positive and significant correlation to likelihood to recommend the organization, with the largest being feeling cared for by leaders. Internal reliability of the 3 scales was ≥0.9.

Conclusion: Nurse perceptions of caring may influence the organization's reputation. Assessing the perception of caring among nursing staff after the introduction and enculturation of this framework is needed. Results support psychometric value for 3 Watson Caritas Scores.

护士对工作关怀的看法：混合方法研究，定量报告。

研究目的研究目的：探讨护士在医疗保健工作环境中对自我护理、同事和领导关怀的看法，并评估3项沃森关怀评分的可靠性：背景：在以沃森人类关怀理论指导护理实践的组织中，对关怀进行评估有助于深入了解专业实践环境：本研究采用混合方法对一家大型医疗保健系统的 1307 名护士进行了横断面描述性调查，并报告了定量数据：平均分：自我=5.46，同事=5.39，领导=5.53，中位数大于 5.6（范围 1-7）。所有量表均与推荐组织的可能性呈显著正相关，其中最大的相关是感受到领导的关怀。三个量表的内部信度均≥0.9：护士对关怀的感知可能会影响组织的声誉。有必要在引入该框架并使之文化化后，对护理人员的关怀感进行评估。结果支持 3 个 Watson Caritas 分数的心理测量价值。
