Transmission services as a source of information for the nursing process
HRUŠKOVÁ, Nina
Shift handover among nurses takes place in order to keep continuity of nursing care. Nurses work in shifts to provide continuous nursing care for patients. The working shifts should overlap so that the nurses could get enough time to do the handover. Every shift starts with providing information concerning the patients. The target of this handover is to provide the most detailed information about each patient so that the nursing procedure is not interrupted. During this handover a nurse transmits information concerning the state of each patient at the department to the following shift. It is carried out in the oral as well as written form. Three goals were set in the practical part of this bachelor thesis. Goal 1: To trace the most frequent form of the shift handover among nurses. Goal 2: To learn how much the nurses are satisfied during the handover with the obtained information concerning patients. Goal 3: To detect how the obtained pieces of information were applied in the nursing procedure. All three goals were met. The quantitative research method of questioning was applied to meet the goals of this bachelor thesis. It was carried out by questionnaires and observation. The questionnaire was given to the nurses in standard departments of the University Hospital Hradec Králové and the Hospital České Budějovice, a.s. Graphs and tables were used to evaluate the research part. Three hypotheses were set. Hypothesis 1: Most frequently the nurses use the form of a dialogue during the shift handover. Hypothesis 2: The nurses are satisfied with the obtained information concerning the patients/clients during the shift handover. Hypothesis 3: The nurses apply the obtained information during the shift handover in the nursing procedure. All three hypotheses were proved according to this investigation.
