| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to explore the learning process of nurses and hospitals. The research examined (1) how job experience, skill acquisition, service climate, and personality influence nurse customer orientation, and (2) how two hospitals have learned from their experience.
First, based on questionnaire surveys of nurses, the influences of job experience, service climate, and personality on nurse customer orientation were analyzed. Nurses were classified into three categories in terms of work experience (beginner: less than 5 years of experience, associate: 6-10 years of experience, veteran: more than 11 years of experience). Results show that experience of receiving gratitude from their patients, acquisition of job-related beliefs and self-management skills have positive impact on nurse customer orientation. Nurse personality has stronger positive impact on their customer orientation rather than service climate of workplace.
Second, field surveys of two hospitals that are well known as patient-centered medical organizations were conducted. Based on interview data of medical managers, I examined how these two hospitals dealt with problems and improve medical service operation systems. Results indicate that coordination of three functions including doctors, nurses, and administrative officers is critical in providing high quality medical services. Although learning patterns of two hospitals are different, leadership of administrative office plays an important role in developing patient-centered medical organization.
