Abstract
|
|
|
Purpose:The purpose of this study was to describe the level of satisfaction with the role of Korean oncology advanced practice nurses (KOAPNs) among cancer patients, physicians, and nurses.
Methods: This study was conducted with 176 patients who had experienced KOPANs¡¯ care more than three times, as well as 82 physicians and 190 nurses who have worked with KOAPNs at four hospitals in Korea.
Results: The results indicate that 1) Overall satisfaction in the patient group was high (3.61) and they were most satisfied with the ¡¯attentiveness¡¯ domain; 2) Overall satisfaction in the physician group was also high (3.61), however, that in the nurse group was relatively low (3.28); ¡¯coordination & cooperation¡¯ showed the highest score for satisfaction in both groups, while ¡¯research¡¯ domain showed the lowest score; 3) Cancer type in patients, working department in physicians or nurses, and duration working with KOAPNs in nurses showed significant association with satisfaction; and 4) The ratio of KOAPNs-to-patient, time since introduction of the KOAPNs policy, and incentive system were institutional factors showing significant association with it.
Conclusion: These findings suggest the necessity for identification and standardization of the roles of KOAPNs, as well as promotion of awareness of KOAPNs¡¯ care.
