Abstract

The purpose of this study is to comprehensively interpret the practical adaptation experience of male nurses working shifts and to understand the meaning and essence. The data collection period was from September 2022 to November 2022 and in-depth interviews were conducted with 9 male nurses working at tertiary general hospitals, general hospitals, special hospitals and long-term care hospitals until content saturation. Data analysis was applied according to Colaizzi's phenomenological research method, and as a result of the study, 4 categories, and 11 theme were derived. The 4 categories consisted of 'Changes due to shift work', 'Difficulties arising from gender differences', 'Adaptation for job performance', and 'Growth and direction for the future'. Through this study, it was possible to explore the meaning of the practical adaptation experience of male nurses working in shifts, and it was found that it was necessary to develop and apply work environment improvement plans and male nurses' capacity building programs for nursing work.

본 연구의 목적은 교대근무 남자간호사의 실무 적응 경험에 대하여 총체적으로 해석하는 데 있으며, 의미와 본질을 이해하기 위함이다. 자료수집 기간은 2022년 09월부터 2022년 11월까지였으며 상급종합병원 및 종합병원, 전문병원, 요양병원에서 근무하는 남자간호사 9명을 대상으로 내용의 포화가 될 때까지 심층면담을 진행하였다. 자료 분석은 Colaizzi의 현상학적 연구 방법에 따라 적용하였고 연구 결과 4개의 범주와 11개의 주제를 도출하였다. 4개의 범주는 '교대근무로 인한 변화', '성별 차이에서 오는 어려움', '업무수행을 위한 적응', '미래를 위한 성장과 방향성'으로 구성되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 교대근무 남자간호사의 실무 적응 경험에 대한 의미를 탐색할 수 있었으며, 간호업무 수행을 위한 근무환경 개선 방안과 남자간호사의 역량 강화 프로그램 개발 및 적용이 필요하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
