Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of nurses who care for elderly patients in an acute care hospital.
Methods: Data were collected using one on one interviews and analyzed using a phenomenological approach. The participants were twelve nurses who worked on the wards of a medical center, B city, Korea.
Results: Six themes were identified: ¡®Work pressure¡¯, ¡®Needs for hospital infrastructure for elderly inpatients¡¯, ¡®Ambivalence toward elders¡¯, ¡¯Needs for professional nursing practice in care for elderly patients¡¯, ¡¯Angry with irresponsible family caregivers¡¯, and ¡®Feels worth in caring for elders¡¯.
Conclusion: The results of this study indicate a need to expand the number of gerontological nursing personnel and the construction of a hospital infrastructure that would improve the quality of care for elderly patients. More studies are needed to explore the experiences of hospitalized elderly patients and their families.
