| Summary: | 碩士 === 義守大學 === 管理研究所碩士班 === 95 === This study aims to examine the relationship between health promoting life style and quality of life of hospital’s employees, and to estimate the related impact factors of their quality of life. This quantitative research has applied the cross-sectional questionnaire survey to collect data, and the study subjects were employees of a regional hospital in southern Taiwan. One thousand and sixty-eight subjects were asked to complete the questionnaire. A total of 635 subjects responded to the survey, with a response rate of 59.5%. The contents of questionnaire include demographic characteristics of employees, health promoting life style and quality of life. The data were analyzed descriptively and inferentially, using SPSS statistic software.
The results illustrated significant relationships among age、and each domain of health promoting life style as well as quality of life. In addition, the domains of health promoting life style, such as self-actualization, stress management, exercise, interpersonal support, religion as well as age were significant predictive factors of quality of life (i.e., physical health domain, psychological domain, social relationship domain and environmental domain). The predictive capabilities ranged from 33 to 49 percent. Furthermore, nursing staff tended to have the lowest scores of health promoting life style and health quality of life than their counterparts.
Conclusion: self-actualization is the most significant predictive factor of quality of life, followed by exercise and stress management. The results implied that the value of self-actualization should be emphasized in the training and communication with hospital employees. In addition, hospital administrations should more pay attention to the issue of teaching employees (nursing staff in particular) in terms of job stress management and regular physical exercise.
