The Association Between Nurses' Gerontological Competencies and Attitudes Toward Older Adults
Aim
This paper investigated the association between nurses' gerontological competencies and attitudes toward older adults.
Design
A descriptive and correlation research design was used in the study following the STROBE guidelines.
Methods
A total of 332 registered nurses from the medical faculty of a university hospital were included in the study. Data collection was conducted using a personal information form, the UCLA Geriatrics Attitudes (UCLA-GA) Scale, and the Gerontological Nursing Competence (GeroNursingCom) Scale.
Results
Female participants had a higher UCLA-GA score than males (p < 0.05). Married participants had a higher UCLA-GA score than single ones (p < 0.05). Participants working for more than 19 years had a higher UCLA-GA score than those working for 1–10 years (p < 0.05). Married participants had a higher GeroNursingCom score than single ones (p < 0.05). Participants working for more than 19 years had a higher GeroNursingCom score than those working for 1–10 years (p < 0.05). There was no significant correlation between UCLA-GA and GeroNursingCom scores (p > 0.05).
Conclusion
The results of the present study indicate that gender, marital status, age and work experience of the participating nurses affect their attitudes towards older adults. Effective training methods and implementation of appropriate policies are recommended to improve the geriatric care competencies of nurses working in hospitals and to improve their attitudes towards older adults.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice aims to promote the evaluation and development of clinical practice across medicine, nursing and the allied health professions. All aspects of health services research and public health policy analysis and debate are of interest to the Journal whether studied from a population-based or individual patient-centred perspective. Of particular interest to the Journal are submissions on all aspects of clinical effectiveness and efficiency including evidence-based medicine, clinical practice guidelines, clinical decision making, clinical services organisation, implementation and delivery, health economic evaluation, health process and outcome measurement and new or improved methods (conceptual and statistical) for systematic inquiry into clinical practice. Papers may take a classical quantitative or qualitative approach to investigation (or may utilise both techniques) or may take the form of learned essays, structured/systematic reviews and critiques.
