精神科看護師の職業性ストレスに関する現状の問題点と今後の展望

Abstract

In this report, we surveyed the occupational stress of psychiatric department nurses who said that the burnout rate was high and the turnover rate of nurses who quit shortly after being hired. Insight into the future of such research is described. In previous research, the occupational stress of psychiatric department nurses varied by each ward function, such as the wards of psychiatric department acute period, the psychiatric department recuperation period and the psychiatric department geriatric period, in which much research concerning the stress of psychiatric department nurses has been reported. However, at present, many of the questionnaire investigations used to measure and evaluate the occupational stress of psychiatric department nurses have not used a standard set up based on knowledge concerning the occupational stress of psychiatric department nurses. Hereafter, in research on the stress of psychiatric department nurses, standards with enough reliability and validity to measure and evaluate the occupational stress of psychiatric department nurses are still being searched for. Also, the development of mental health care in the psychiatric department ward according to these standards is expected.
