Purpose: This study is aimed to investigate the relationship among terminal care stress, job satisfaction and terminal care performance nurses in internal medicine wards and to provide a basis to improve terminal care performance.
Methods: This is a descriptive study performed with 201 nurses who have at least one year of experience and are stationed at the internal medicine department of three general hospitals and three university hospitals in P city of a metropolitan city B. The nurses also had an experience with a dying patient. Data were collected from March 1 through March 31, 2014. The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of Kosin University.
Results: Job satisfaction was negatively correlated with stress in end-of-life care (r=?212, P=0.003) and positively correlated with terminal care performance (r=0.383, P＜0.001). There was no correlation between terminal care stress and terminal care performance.
Conclusion: Appropriate programs are needed to improve job satisfaction for high quality terminal care performance.
