|
|
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate influencing factors on nursing competency of nurses in long-term care hospitals.
Methods: A descriptive research design was used with a convenience sample of 150 nurses. Data were collected from Feb 15 to Mar 8, 2017 using self-reported questionnaires and analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis using the SPSS/WIN 18.0 program.
Results: The mean scores of self-efficacy, organizational citizenship behavior and nursing competency were 3.84 out of 5, 3.77 out of 5 and 3.80 out of 5, respectively. Nursing competency was positively correlated with self-efficacy (r=.63, p<.001) and organizational citizenship behavior (r=.64, p<.001). Factors influencing on nursing competency were self-efficacy (β=.38, p<.001), organizational citizenship behavior (β=.37, p<.001) and Clinical career(β=.14, p=.011), which explained 51% of the variance.
Conclusion: Based on the finding of this study, it is necessary to develop education and intervention programs in order to increase the nursing competency for nurses in long-term care hospitals.
