Abstract:
Objective? To investigate the spiritual care competence in clinical nurses and analyze its influencing factors. Methods? From December 2017 to January 2018, the clinical nurses from 2 hospitals in Lishui City, Zhejiang Province were investigated by convenience sampling method. Spiritual Care Competence Scale (SCCS) and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised Short Scale for Chinese (EPQ-RSC) were applied in the investigation. A total of 412 questionnaires were sent out and 384 valid questionnaires were collected. The valid rate of the questionnaires was 93.2%. Results? The total SCCS score of the 384 clinical nurses was (67.85±11.63). Pearson correlation analysis showed that nurses'spiritual care ability was negatively correlated with psychoticism (r=-0.362,P＜0.01) and neuroticism (r=-0.442,P＜0.01) in personality traits, positively correlated with extroversion (r=0.414,P＜0.01) and concealment (r=0.348,P＜0.01), and positively correlated with working years (r=0.263,P＜ 0.05). Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in total SCCS scores among clinical nurses with different religious beliefs, whether they were teaching teachers or not, and whether they participated in spiritual care training (P＜0.05). The result of multiple regression analysis indicated that the influencing factors of spiritual care competency were psychoticism, taking part in spiritual care training, nervosity and working years. Conclusions? Nursing managers should adopt effective measures to improve nurses' spiritual care competency, select and train pertinently, arrange the job reasonably according to the personality characteristics and improve the utilization rate of nursing resources and nursing efficiency.
