| Summary: | 碩士 === 中國醫藥大學 === 護理學系碩士班 === 98 === The aim of this study is to explore the role function of the outpatient department nurses, including actual work content and their viewpoints about actual work content.
A qualitative research design was applied to conduct the study at a regional hospital in Taichung county. Ten outpatient department nurses were recruited and interviewed in deep, and the interviews were audiotaped and transcribed. A content analysis method was used to analyze the transcripts.
The role function of outpatient department nurses was found as the following two categories: (1)direct nursing; and (2)indirect nursing; their viewpoints contain (1)low level of professionalism; (2) high level of work stress; and (3) need other’s positive appraisal.
The result of the research shows that the role function between outpatient and inpatient department nursing staffs is similar. They are just different from the way of dealing with things. Actually, outpatient department nursing staffs face lots of difficulties when they are expanding the view on nursing. It causes them not even to identify with their role function. Therefore, we expect that the result of the study can help them understand their role function on the clinical part and improve their specialized ability. Wish they can overcome all the difficulties and make themselves visible and positively appraised.
