Abstract:
Nursing is a job that is based on ethical and legal commitments. One of the most responsibilities of every nurse is to know the rules and regulations of his/her job.
Methods
This cross – sectional descriptive study conducted to determine. the nursing personnel opinion about their professional rules and responsibilities in Jahrom hospitals. Data collected by a two part questionnaire. The first part was demographic data and the second part contained 50 questions that 40 questions were about professional rules and regulations (part one), 7 questions about nursing duties (part two) and 3 questions about commission of professional crimes (part 3). The samples entailed all of the nursing personnel in 2 hospitals (271). Finally 167 questionnaires were analyzed by SPSS software. The percent of answering to each question is also determined. Result Findings showed that 60% of participants were from Ostad Motahari hospital (O.M.H.) and 40% were from Paymanieh hospital (P.H). Mean age of samples in (O.M.H) was 33.5 and in P.H was 29, also mean range of job time in O.M.H was 11.5 and in P.H was 7.5. 65.3% of personnel had B.S nursing degree and 23.4% were Aid nurses.The mean rank of questionnaire was 25. The mean rank of knowledge in 2 hospitals was 37.52, in O.M.H was 36.88 and in P.H was 38.48%. There was significant difference between the mean rank of knowledge in P.H (M=29.44 SD 3.14) and in O.M.H (M=28.03 SD 2.29) in part one (p=./000).Although there were not significant difference between the mean rank of knowledge and age, education, marriage, job time and type of responsibility. Assessing the answering to questions revealed that the knowledge of 135(80.8%) of personnel about taking oral consent and 95(56.9%) about the consent of a patient seeking help or nursing care over the phone,and 101(60.5%) about finding one of the parents and taking the consent before doing any relatively urgent treatment for their children was poor.Also 133(79.6%) didn’t know that damaging the patients is due to acting of commission of health care providers. 72(43.1%) said that if work problems occurred in their workplaces, they didn’t know to reffere to what Law-courts and 133(79.6%) said that if there had been some professional problems they didn’t support by their employers.
Conclusion
The results showed that the mean rank of knowledge in three parts was higher than the mean rank of test but in part one the mean rank of knowledge in P.H was higher than O.M.H. May be the one reason is due to there are more B.S nursing graduates that work in P.H and passed the nursing ethics course. The knowledge of personnel about some important rules was poor. So the nurses must be educated about some professional rules and the course of nursing law must be added to nursing curriculum. Also by preparing notebooks and in service education, the knowledge of personnel must be increased.
