Abstract

This study is a descriptive research study to determine the stress, resilience, and social support of nurses who cared for COVID-19 patients and the impact on post-traumatic growth. The survey was conducted on 179 nurses who cared for COVID-19 patients at a general hospital located in D City from July 19, 2021, to August 10, 2021. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis using SPSS 22.0. Post-traumatic growth showed a significant positive correlation with resilience (r=.499, p=<.001) and social support (r=.494, p=<.001). As a result of multiple regression analysis, prior knowledge about COVID-19 (𝛽=.142, p=.023), resilience (𝛽=.330, p =<.001), and social support (𝛽=.296, p =<.001) was a significant variable affecting post-traumatic growth. These results will be used as basic data to improve nurses' post-traumatic growth.

본 연구는 코로나19 환자를 간호한 간호사의 스트레스, 회복탄력성, 사회적 지지를 확인하고 외상 후 성장에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구다. 2021년 7월 19일부터 2021년 8월 10일까지 D시에 위치한 일개 종합병원에서 코로나19 환자를 간호한 간호사 179명을 대상으로 실시하였다. 수집된 자료는 SPSS 22.0을 이용하여 서술적 통계, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, Multiple regression analysis로 분석하였다. 외상 후 성장은 회복탄력성 (r=.499, p=<.001), 사회적 지지(r=.494, p=<.001)와 유의한 양의 상관관계를 나타냈다. 다중회귀분석을 실시한 결과 코로나 19 사전지식 정도(𝛽=.142, p=.023), 회복탄력성(𝛽=.330, p=<.001), 사회적 지지(𝛽=.296, p=<.001)가 외상 후 성장에 영향을 미치는 유의한 변수로 나왔다. 이러한 결과는 간호사의 외상 후 성장 증진을 위한 기초자료로 활용될 것이다.
