Özet |
The approach of family-centered care has benefits like maintaining the bonds between child and family, allowing family to involve in child’s care, and minimizing the negative effects of hospitalization on child and family. This descriptive study was conducted for the purpose of determining the views of nurses working in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) about family-centered care. The population of the study consisted of 53 nurses working in NICU of four hospitals between 1 April and 30 June 2015. In the study, Introductory Information Form and Parent Participation Attitude Scale (PPAS) were used as the data collection tools. In the study, it was determined that 75.4% of the nurses had knowledge about family-centered care, 52.8% paid attention to applying family-centered care, and 60% of the nurses who neglected familycentered care stated that excessive work load posed an obstacle in applying family-centered care. PPAS mean score of the nurses was determined as 84.30±5.56. There was a statistically significant difference between the educational level of nurses, status of having knowledge about family-centered care and PPAS scores (p<0.05). It was observed that as the educational level of nurses, who worked in the most important position in providing family-centered care in NICU, increased and their knowledge about the issue increased, their attitudes advanced positively. In accordance with this result; it is important for hospital administrations to establish policies regarding family-centered care and for nurses to take an active role in this issue. It is recommended to organize in-service training programs to develop the therapeutic communication between nurses and parents. |
