Abstract

This study has been attempted to verify the effectiveness of the education program developed for improving nurses’ consciousness of bioethics. The education program is a Personalist Bioethics Education Program(PBEP) consisting of 2 hours a week for 4 weeks and a total of 8 hours in 4 sessions. Verification of the effectiveness of the bioethical consciousness training program was conducted under the approval of the relevant agency IRB. The design of the study was a mixed study method applied together with studies of non-equivalent experimental group and control group pre-test and post-test design and qualitative research to analyze the content of reflective writing of participants. The subjects of the study were nurses with clinical experience of more than one year and less than 10 years, and 26 were in an experimental group and 28 were in a control group. Kim Seung-ju's bioethics consciousness scale was used. The data collection ran from Sep. 25 to Dec. 10. 2019, and the experimental group was provided with a program to promote bioethical consciousness. The quantitative data collected were analyzed for the differences between the experimental group and the control group using the SPSS 21.0 program as analyses of covariance (ANCOVA), and the results showed that the experimental group participating in the bioethical consciousness training program significantly increased the consciousness of bioethics (F=12.184, p=.001, ηp2= .193). In conclusion, the Personalist Bioethics Education Program can be presented as a strategic practice to firmly establish values related to bioethics so that nurses can make the right decisions at clinical sites that face complex and diverse bioethics issues.
