Abstract:
Objective:To explore the current status of post management for orthopedic specialist nurses in Beijing, so as to provide reference for formulating orthopedic specialist nurse management systems.Methods:Purposive sampling was used to select 254 orthopedic specialist nurses who participated in the Orthopedic Specialist Nurse Qualification Certification Training Course organized by the Beijing Nursing Association from 2014 to 2020. A survey was conducted using the self-developed Post Management Questionnaire and Job Satisfaction Questionnaire.Results:254 orthopedic specialist nurses came from 46 hospitals in Beijing. 92.9% (236/254) of orthopedic specialist nurses had a bachelor's degree or higher, 69.3% (176/254) of specialist nurses had intermediate or higher professional titles, and hospitals with 67.7% (172/254) of specialist nurses established post management systems or policies. The work of specialist nurses mainly focused on clinical nursing, and also undertook nursing teaching, nursing quality management, organizing nursing rounds, and clinical case nursing. The main factors hindering the development of orthopedic specialist nurses were the heavy workload of clinical affairs, lack of clear job evaluation indicators, and lack of clear career development direction.Conclusions:The post management of orthopedic specialist nurses in Beijing has gradually been carried out, but there is still room for improvement in the implementation of advanced nursing practice activities, assessment and evaluation, and special incentives for specialist nurses. Managers should further establish a sound, scientific, and effective management system, fully leverage the advanced clinical nursing practice role of orthopedic specialist nurses, and promote the scientific application of orthopedic specialist nurses.
