Purpose This study aimed to identify the effects of shared leadership, communication skills, and team effectiveness, as perceived by nurses and nursing assistants in comprehensive nursing service units.
Methods A cross-sectional research design was adopted, and the sample included 306 nurses, nurse assistants, and caregivers working in nine hospitals with fewer than 500 beds in two South Korean cities. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and four-step hierarchical regression analysis.
Results The factors influencing team effectiveness in the hierarchal multiple regression analysis were shared leadership (β=.57, p<.001) and communication skills (β=.18, p<.001). These factors explained 49% of the total variance.
Conclusion To enhance team effectiveness in compressive nursing service units, educational programs focusing on shared leadership and communication skills among nurses, nursing assistants, and caregivers must be developed.
Purpose This study examined patients’ call bell use and the relationship between call bell use and nursing care needs.
Methods: Nursing staff was asked to report patients’ call bell use during 15 shifts over five days in integrated nursing care wards. Nursing care needs were measured using summary scores of nursing activities and activities of daily living (ADLs). The relationship between call bell use and nursing care needs was analyzed using a zero-inflated negative binomial regression model.
Results: A total of 251 patients used call bells 235 times, with an average of 0.94 times per day. Only 72 patients (28.7%) used call bells once or more per day (range, 1~14 times), whereas the rest did not use call bells. Male gender, a high risk for falling, and a higher score on nursing activities were associated with a greater likelihood of using call bells. Pain and higher dependency on ADLs were associated with an increase in the frequency of call bell use.
Conclusion: Patients' call bell use needs to be minimized by meeting their nursing care needs to improve patient safety and nursing performance.

Purpose This study examined the subjective frame of patient satisfaction in the comprehensive nursing care services and explored future directions by investigating subjective frame types.
Methods: P-Samples were collected from 30 patients who underwent the comprehensive nursing care service. To enable a forced normal distribution, 31 Q-samples were classified on a 9-point scale considering the degree of agreement. The collected data were analyzed by principal component factor analysis and varimax rotation using the PQ method program.
Results: The subjective frame of patient satisfaction with the comprehensive nursing care service was divided into four types. Considering the characteristics of each, the types were labeled as “the formation of relationships with the surroundings”, “autonomous decision-making”, “non-verbal empathy”, and “therapeutic support resources”. Each type can be classified into therapeutic relationship and therapeutic process categories.
Conclusion: This study revealed changes in expectations regarding new medical services and that the subjective frames that affect the formation of satisfaction are diverse. The study results are expected to be used as basic data to develop strategies for creating a therapeutic environment that improves patient satisfaction in the comprehensive nursing care service.

Purpose This study was performed to compare the perceived level of trust, collaboration, and teamwork about other healthcare personnel, professionals and assistants between nurses who work on integrated nursing care service wards and general wards. Methods Participants were 216 nurses working on integrated nursing care service wards and general wards of 5 general hospitals located in Kyeongido and Kyeongsangbuk-do (integrated nursing wards: 109, general wards: 107). Data were collected using structured questionnaires and analyzed using x 2 test, two sample independent t-test and Multivariate Analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA) with SPSS/WIN 23.0 programs. In particular, MANCOVA was conducted after controlling two independent variable covariants which are marital status (p=.045) and work department (p=.022) which had significant differences for both groups and three dependent variables which is trust, collaboration, and teamwork that highly correlated. Results There were significant differences in the dependent variables of trust (p=.001), collaboration (p=.014), and teamwork (p<.001) between the two groups of nurses. The mean scores for trust, collaboration, and teamwork with other healthcare personnel as perceived by nurses working on integrated nursing care service wards were significantly lower than that of nurses on general wards. Conclusion These findings show that strategies are needed to strengthen the trust, collaboration, and teamwork among nurses working on integrated nursing care service wards and other healthcare personnel.

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to explore and analyze the latest trends in domestic research related to integrated nursing care service and to present a practical direction for future research. METHODS This study was focused on domestic nursing research related to integrated nursing care service as published in journals until March 20, 2019. After reviewing the quality of the papers, 34 papers were finally selected for analysis. In order to analyze the overall trends, the analysis was reviewed by year, source, research design, and subjects, and content analysis was used to identify trends by topic. RESULTS From the content analysis, the top categories were divided into nurses' view and patients' view, with both nurses' view and patients' view for the subcategories of ‘input’, ‘process’ and ‘output’ respectively. From both the nurse and patient view, the sub-category ‘input’ included ‘service environment’, ‘process’ and ‘service throughput’ and for the ‘output’ subcategory, three subjects, ‘performance’, ‘service-related perception change’ and ‘social psychological change’ were derived from the nurses' view, and two subjects ‘performance’ and ‘service-related perception change’ were derived from the patients' view. CONCLUSION In order for future studies to provide practical basic data for stable settlement and improvement of integrated nursing care service, it is necessary to develop and study various aspects without bias, and in a balanced and integrated manner.
