本研究目的在了解未婚女性護理人員的生活滿意度、社會支持與自覺身心健康現況,並進一步探討其相關性。採橫斷式問卷調查法,研究對象為某醫學中心未婚女性護理人員。以方便取樣方式共發出問卷371份,回收261份有效問卷,回收率70.6%。資料分析以SPSS for Windows 12.0 作業軟體進行描述性統計、t 檢定、單因子變異數、皮爾森積差相關統計分析。 結果顯示未婚女性護理人員的生活滿意度達中等以上。在社會支持方面獲得程度也是中等的,以情緒性支持最高,長期性實質性支持最低,支持網絡來源以親人為主,「護理行政主管支持」分數最低。自覺身心健康各構面分數皆低於一般女性國人,以「社會功能」平均得分最高,其次為「一般健康」,「活力狀況」為最低。相關分析顯示生活滿意度與社會支持呈現顯著正相關,生活滿意度與自覺身心健康各構面除了「因情緒角色受限」此構面無顯著相關性外,其餘構面皆呈現顯著正相關。社會支持與自覺身心健康則皆呈現顯著正相關。本研究結果可作為醫院行政主管對於未婚女性護理人員身心健康關懷的參考。
The purposes of this study were to explore the statuses and relationships of life satisfaction, social support, and physical-mental health among single female nurses. The study applied a cross-sectional design using structured questionnaires. A total of 261 participants were recruited from a medical center through a convenient sampling procedure. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, one way ANOVAs, and Pearson’s correlations. The results of the study showed that single female nurses had medium levels of life satisfactions and social supports. The highest score of social supports was the emotional support domain, and the lowest score was long-term substantive support domain. Further, about the sources of social support, the highest scores were from families, and the lowest scores were from nursing administrators. In terms of physical-mental health, participants in this study had shown lower scores in comparing with the general female Taiwanese. In more specific, the “social functioning” domain had the highest score, following by “general health”, and the lowest score was “vitality”. The Pearson’s correlation analysis showed that significant positive relationships were found among the life satisfaction, social support, and physical-mental health. The results of the study can be a reference for the hospital administrators in caring of single female nurses’ health issues.
