Evaluation of mental and physical stress of nurses treating clients with Apallic Syndrome
PROKEŠOVÁ, Helena
Thanks to modern medicine there is a growing number of patients with apallic syndrome. They are hospitalized in various hospital units. Treating such patients is without question demanding with regard to instruments needed in hospital units, with regard to staffing but high demands are also set on nursing staff who are supposed to provide specialist and difficult care. Providing such care is mostly in competence of a nurse for whom it may represent greater or smaller mental and physical stress. As a result the quality of provided care may be influenced. The objective of my thesis was to evaluate mental and physical stress of nurses providing care to clients with apallic syndrome depending on hospital unit.Two hypotheses were stated. H1: Mental stress of nurses working in apallic unit is lower than the stress of nurses working in other hospital units. H2: Physical stress of nurses working in apallic unit is lower than the stress of nurses working in other hospital units. I used the method of questioning (questionnaire method) to achieve the objective and to verify the hypotheses. The research set of data consisted of 87 nurses from three types of hospital units. Evaluation of results showed that: H1 - Mental stress of nurses working in apallic unit is lower than the stress of nurses working in other hospital units - was confirmed. H2 - Physical stress of nurses working in apallic unit is lower that the stress of nurses working in other hospital units - was not confirmed. In the last part of my thesis I suggested recommendations to key personnel of hospital units where the research work was carried out. The results of the research show that nurses working in standard units and in intensive care units suffer from greater mental stress while taking care of patients with apallic syndrome. Nurses working in apallic units suffer from greater physical stress while taking care of patients with apallic syndrome.
