PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to investigate factors affecting the resilience of emotional intelligence, job stress coping, and organizational socialization of nurses working in long-term care hospitals. METHODS The participants were 153 nurses working in 8 long-term care hospitals in B city. Data were collected from February. 1 to Feb. 15, 2019 SPSS/WIN 23.0 was used for analysis with t-test, ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise regression. RESULTS Factors influencing resilience in the participants were emotional intelligence (β=.38, p < .001), coping behavior-focusing on the positive (β=.29, p < .001), nurse motivation (β=.16, p=.006), organizational socialization (β=.17, p=.009), coping behavior-tension reduction (β=.14, p=.023). These factors contributed 54% of the total variance in resilience. CONCLUSION It is necessary to study emotional intelligence and hospital nurses' coping with job stress while carrying out highly emotional activities on the job and to develop a program that can enhance the resilience of the nurses to improve psychological wellbeing and verify the effects.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing patient safety nursing activities of nurses working in long-term care hospitals. METHODS The participants were 126 nurses working in 8 long-term care hospitals in B city. Data were collected from June 26 to July 10, 2017. SPSS/WIN 23.0 was used for analysis with t-test, ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression. RESULTS The factors influencing patient safety nursing activities in participants were general characteristics, career in present long-term care hospital, (β=−.23, p=.008), safety control (β=.29, p=.002) and intention to report (β=.19, p=.037); on the personal side, informal communication (β=−.31, p=.005) for the organizational side. These factors contributed 39% of the total variance in patient safety nursing activities. CONCLUSION In the organizational dimension of long-term care hospital, formal communication channels should be strengthened to officially direct or report patient safety rather than using informal communication. In order to improve the sense of safety control, which is a personal side of long-term care hospital nurses, it is necessary to provide awareness and education about the continuous safety control and positively prepare the reporting atmosphere to increase long-term care hospital nurses' intention to report.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to provide basic research material necessary for the establishment of comprehensive nursing service units, through a comparative analysis of inpatient satisfaction with nursing between comprehensive nursing service and general units and the work stress of nurses. METHODS The survey participants were inpatients and nurses from 3 general hospitals in Busan, including 6 units, 123 nurses and 220 patients. Date collection was done through March and April 2016. Collected data were analyzed using test and independent t-test with SPSS 23 Win program. RESULTS Inpatients on comprehensive nursing service units had higher scores for satisfaction than inpatients on general units. There was no statistically significant difference in nurses' work stress between the two types of units. CONCLUSION The findings indicate that although inpatient satisfaction with comprehensive nursing service units is higher than for general units, work stress for nurses is comparatively high for both types of units. While it is necessary to expand the implementation of comprehensive nursing service units, an institutional strategy for reducing nurses' work stress is required if the expansion is to be successful.

PURPOSE
The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of incivility experienced by clinical nurses on their job stress, and to identify the moderating effects of self-efficacy on the relationship between job stress and incivility. METHODS A structured self-report questionnaire was used to measure job stress, incivility and self-efficacy. Data were collected from 140 nurses currently working in three general hospitals of more than 300 beds. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, ANOVA, Scheffé test, Pearson correlation coefficient, hierarchical multiple linear regression with the SPSS Version 19.0 program. RESULTS Incivility from supervisors, patients and patients' families showed a significant effect on job stress and self-efficacy had an effect on incivility from patients and patients' families and also incivility from doctors and job stress. These variables have total explanatory power of 46.6% on job stress. CONCLUSION The results indicate a need to recognize the seriousness and damage of incivility in order to reduce hospital nurses' job stress and to awaken nurses to the relationship of stress and incivility and establish institutional programs to combat incivility. Moreover, there is also a need to improve self-efficacy on the ward through hospital education and coaching. Citations Citations to this article as recorded by
PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to investigate provide basic data for improving patient safety in nursing homes in Korea by measuring the patient safety culture of nursing homes and understanding its influencing factors. METHODS This study is a secondary analysis of a descriptive research study using data from development and validation of the Korean patient safety culture scale for nursing homes. A total of 982 cases were analyzed using the SPSS Statistics 20 program. RESULTS For the safety culture of the patient, there was a significant difference based on the size and location of the facility. For the degree of patient safety, age, education, occupation, marital status, and the size of the nursing home were significant factors. Patient safety culture and the degree of patient safety had a positive correlation. The regression model of the degree of patient safety was significant (F=20.73, p<.001) and the explanatory power of the model was 27.4%. CONCLUSION The study results indicate that patient safety culture is a factor influencing safety of elders in nursing homes. To improve patient safety for nursing homes in Korea, continuous evaluation and improvement projects need to be done at a national level. Citations Citations to this article as recorded by
PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to investigate the patient safety culture in Korean nursing homes using the Nursing Home Survey Patient Safety Culture (NHS-PC), a valid tool, provided by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and to compare the results with AHRQ data. METHODS Administrators and staff (N=151) of six nursing homes in Seoul, Busan, Kyeonggi Province and Gyeongsangnam Province completed the survey in July, 2010. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, positive response rate, t-test, ANOVA, DUNCAN, Cronbach's alpha. RESULTS The total mean (SD) positive response rate for patient safety culture was not significantly different from the AHRQ data. For composite levels, the results of 'handoffs' were significantly higher, and the results of 'feedback and communication about incidents' and 'nonpunitive responses to mistakes' were significantly lower than the AHRQ data. CONCLUSION More effective strategies related to nonpunitive responses to mistakes and management activities for patient safety are needed to improve patient safety culture in nursing homes.

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to identify experiences of incidents and to explore the perceptions of Patient Safety Culture between two groups using nursing homes in Korea; employees and patients and their families. METHODS In 2010 in-depth interviews were used to collect data from 56 participants (38 employees, and 18 patients and family members). The data were analyzed using inductive content analysis. RESULTS The analysis scheme resulting from employees' data consisted of 7 categories and 22 subcategories, after 216 significant statements were analyzed and categorized. The 7 categories were education and training (24.5%), working attitude (23.6%), organizational system (19.0%), job satisfaction (18.5%), institutional environment (6.5%), manager leadership (4.2%), and work climate (4.7%). The analysis scheme resulting from patient and family data consisted of 6 categories and 7 subcategories after 24 significant statements were analyzed and categorized. Education and training among categories of employees were excluded. CONCLUSION These findings indicate that an evaluation tool for patient safety culture should be developed for nursing homes in Korea. Citations Citations to this article as recorded by
