Research Abstract |
The objective of the present study was to clarify the factors that affect the priority of home visits for public health nurses as compared to their other activities. A self-administered questionnaire survey was mailed to a total of 1178 public health nurses who were involved with 208 municipal health services in Hokkaido. A reply was obtained from 610 nurses (51.8%), and of these, a total of 587 valid responses (49.8%) were analyzed. With the priority of home visits as a dependent variable, multiple regression analysis was conducted using 24 independent variables derived from the following three categories: individual factors, work environment factors, and object factors. The results showed that 12 factors had a significant influence. The top four factors were as follows: "sense of crisis if the number of visits is reduced"; "the entire workplace emphasizes home visits"; "nurses' perception that home visits are rewarding"; and "meeting with individuals who require home visits". The results suggest that, in order to increase the priority of home visits compared to the other activities of public health nurses, it is necessary for individual public health nurses to recognize the value of home visits and to improve the organizational ability of work environments to deal with home visits.
