Abstract:
Objective? To explore the status quo of work-life balance and resilience of nurses in second pregnancy, to analyze the correlation between the two and to provide a reference for improving mental health of nurses in second pregnancy. Methods? The nurses in second pregnancy from 4 Class Ⅲ hospitals in Huzhou were selected using convenient sampling and investigated with the general demographic information questionnaire, Work-life Balance Scale, Chinese Medical and Nursing Staff Resilience Scale between January and April 2018. Totally 465 questionnaires were distributed and 460 of them were collected, with a valid collection rate of 98.92%. Results? The 460 nurses' work-life balance score totaled (37.44±7.84) and their resilience totaled (54.76±9.27). The two were positively correlated with each other (r=0.314,P=0.008). There was a statistically significant difference in the scores of resilience between nurses in the second trimester of pregnancy with different working years, professional titles, and monthly household income (P＜0.05). Work-life balance was the main influence factor for the resilience of nurses in second pregnancy. Conclusions? The work-life balance and resilience of nurses in second pregnancy stay has relevance. The higher their work-life balance is, the stronger their resilience. Nursing managers may consider flexible working time and team management, reduce working pressure over nurses in second pregnancy, and improve work-life balance. Meanwhile, nurses themselves, spouses and families should work together to improve the nurses' resilience in the face of daily stressors.
