Abstract

The purpose of this research is to confirm the degree of awareness, knowledge and attitude for the safety management of patients in elderly care facilities, to investigate the factors that affect the safety performance of patients by nursing caregivers, and to provide basic material for the development of educational programs for strengthening performance. The research target audience was 142 nursing caregivers working in the G metropolitan city and S city elderly care facilities, and the data collected from 7/10/2020 to 7/28/2020, were analyzed with the SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. The ability of a nursing caregiver to perform patient safety is increasing as a result of higher education, higher patient safety awareness, and also more positive attitude towards patient safety. The major factors that affect the safety performance of patients by nursing caregivers were attitude toward patient safety, patient safety awareness, and the amount of participation in patient safety education. It's explanatory power was 26.9%. Based on the results of this research, we propose a study to confirm the positive effects of patient safety consciousness and attitude by confirming the education program completed by nursing caregivers and systematizing the education method and design in the education program of nursing caregivers.

본 연구의 목적은 노인요양시설 요양보호사의 환자 안전에 대한 관리의식, 지식 및 태도의 정도를 확인하고, 요양보호사의 환자안전수행능력에 영향을 미치는 요인을 알아보고 수행 능력증진을 위한 교육프로그램 개발에 기초자료를 제공하고자 시도되었다. 대상자는 G광역시와 S시 노인요양시설에서 근무하고 있는 요양보호사 142명을 대상으로 실시 하였으며, 2020년 7월 10일에서 7월 28일까지 수집한 자료를 SPSS/WIN 21.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과, 요양보호사의 환자안전수행능력은 교육 횟수가 많을수록, 환자안전관리의식 및 환자 안전에 대한 긍정적인 태도가 높을수록 안전수행능력이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 요양보호사의 환자안전수행능력에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 환자안전에 대한 태도, 환자안전관리의식, 최근 1년간 환자안전교육 참여 횟수 순이었으며, 설명력은 26.9%이었다. 본 연구결과를 기초로 요양보호사가 이수한 교육의 프로그램을 확인하고, 요양보호사의 교육프로그램에 교육방법 및 설계를 체계화하여 환자안전관리의식 및 태도의 긍정적인 효과를 확인하는 연구를 제언한다.
