Abstract:
Purpose:To investigate the influence of violence experience and response of coping with violence on professional QoL among emergency department.
Methods:This cross-sectional study, included 179 subjects. Data were collected online from June 24 to July 31, 2022, and were analyzed using independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and multiple regression.
Results:In the compassion satisfaction category, the problem focused coping (β=.328, p<.001) was a significant influencing factor (adj. R2 =.103) (F=21.36, p<.001). In the burnout category, violence response (β=.460, p<.001), problem focused coping (β=-.306, p<.001), and violence experience (β=.151, p=.030) were significant influencing factors (adj. R2 =.288) (F=24.99, p<.001). In the secondary traumatic stress category, violence response (β=.587, p<.001) and emergency department career (β=.177, p=.011) were significant influencing factors (adj. R2 =.383) (F=41.90, p<.001).
Conclusion:To improve professional QoL, it is necessary to understand the current situation related to violence and prepare a coping support system and intervention to prevent violence experiences and reduce negative consequences related to violence for a safe working environment for emergency department nurses.
