Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the experience of nurse in comprehensive nursing care.
Methods: Experiential data collected from 9 nurses through in-depth interviews. Participants were selected from nurses working in the comprehensive nursing care unit at general hospital. The main question was ¡°Can you describe your experience in the comprehensive nursing care unit?¡± All interviews were recorded and transcribed, then analyzed using Colaizzi`s method.
Results: Nine themes were derived from the analysis: `Practice nursing care`, `Feel thankful of the client`, `Difficulty in nursing due to absence of patients` guardian`, `Tired of over-demanding patient and distrust of guardian`, `Confusion regarding one`s identity as a nurse`, `Not enough to support system`,`Insufficient pre-training for nurse and client`, `Requirement of work establishment for nurse and nurse aid`, `Concerns about low rewards and high safety accidents`.
Conclusion: As a comprehensive nursing service, the nurses provided total patient care, and patient satisfaction and expression of appreciation increased. However, disadvantages were identified, such as patients` excessive needs, communication difficulties, lack of support systems, low compensation, and a high number of safety accidents. Therefore, systematic comprehensive nursing will be achieved if these shortcomings are addressed.
