Purpose: This study was to identify nurses¡¯ intentions for COVID-19 vaccination in 2022.
Methods: A questionnairesurvey was conducted among 222 nurses in Korea. The collected data were analyzed using the independent t-test,one-way analysis of variance, the Wilcoxon rank sum test, Pearson¡¯s correlation coefficients, and multipleregression analysis.
Results: The score for intention to be vaccinated against COVID-19 in 2022 was 2.70 pointson a 5-point scale, significantly lower than in 2020 (3.02 points on a 5-point scale). The average score for knowledgerelated to COVID-19 was 7.22 out of 10 points. Positive correlations were found between the intention for COVID-19 vaccination in 2022 and preventive health behavior, as well as between nurses¡¯ intentions for COVID-19vaccination in 2022 and 2020. The factors affecting nurses¡¯ intentions for COVID-19 vaccination in 2022 werepreventive health behavior (¥â=.11, p=.045) and nurses¡¯ intentions for COVID-19 vaccination in 2020 (¥â=.65,p<.001). This model showed a significant explanatory power of approximately 45% (F=36.88, p<.001) for theCOVID-19 vaccination intention in 2022.
Conclusion: This result points to the importance of managing nurses¡¯preventive health behaviors to promote COVID-19 vaccination uptake. Nurses¡¯ vaccination intentions are animportant issue for the safety of both nurses and patients. A safe vaccination environment and national policyshould be prepared to reduce nurses' hesitations about COVID-19 vaccination.
