Abstract

Purpose: This study was done to investigate emergency nurses' perceived competency and frequency of 17 educational interventions. Methods: A mail survey was administered to a convenience sample of 744 nurses in 143 emergency departments across the nation. Results: The mean score for overall competency was 2.90 out of 4. The competency score for staff education (2.40 out of 4) was lower than that of patient/family education (3.40 out of 4). The mean score for overall frequency was 3.34 out of 5. The frequency score for staff education (2.27 out of 5) was lower than that of patient/family education (4.39 out of 5). Emergency nurses' perceived competency was significantly correlated with frequency of educational interventions. Overall competency score was different according to the nurses' age, education, position, hospital experience, emergency experience and the type of emergency department. Conclusions: Although the overall competency is high, the competency on some areas of educational intervention remains insufficient. Educational programs to reinforce emergency nurses' educational competency and evidenced based protocols on education should be developed.
