Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This study was aimed to identify influencing factors of hospital fall prevention activities of tertiary hospital nurses and general hospital nurses by examining relationships between knowledge and attitude of fall prevention, self-efficacy for preventing fall and perceived patient safety culture on fall prevention activities.
Method: A total of 341 nurses from one university hospital and two general hospitals were recruited. A descriptive survey research was used with self administered questionnaires. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression.
Results: As results of multiple regression analysis, the factors affecting hospital fall prevention activities of tertiary hospital nurses were working unit, working hours, knowledge of fall prevention, and self-efficacy for preventing fall. For general hospital nurses, the factors affecting hospital fall prevention activities were self-efficacy for preventing fall and perceived patient safety culture.
Conclusions: Based on the findings, there is a need to develop an intervention program for enhancing self-efficacy for preventing fall to improve fall prevention activities of nurses.
