Purpose: The purposes of this study was to figure out the performance of preventive actions for hospital falls by university
hospital nurses and to identify factors influencing performance of preventive actions for hospital falls by applying the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB).
Methods: Three hundred nurses from two university hospitals in G city and C province participated in this study. The data were collected from structures self-reported questionnaires. The data was analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and stepwise multiple regression analysis using SPSS 23.0 program.
Results: The score of hospital fall preventive actions was significantly higher when the subjects had received education regarding preventive actions for hospital falls, when they were educated for more than 6 hours, and when they had received the education for more than 5 times. When it comes to the prediction of intention to perform preventive actions for hospital falls, the subjective norm appeared as the most significant predictive factor, and the attitude also was a significant factor. When it comes to the prediction of performance regarding preventive actions for hospital falls, the intention to perform appeared as the direct predictive factor. But, the perceived behavior control was not significant for both intention and performance predictive factors.
Conclusion: The subjective norm appeared as the most significant related factor, while attitude also appeared significant. It is concluded that education programs to prevent hospital falls need to be developed and provided with nurses’ subjective norms and attitudes considered.
