WORKING CONTEXT IN A HEMODIALYSIS SERVICE: EVALUATION OF NURSING STAFF
ABSTRACTThe aim of this study was to assess the working context and relate it to the physical suffering in nursing staff in hemodialysis services in southern Brazil. Quantitative study, with 46 staff, conducted in 2011. Inclusion criteria: working in nursing for at least six months. The staff who were absent from work during data collection were excluded from the study. A self-completed form requiring socio-demographic and work data and the Work Context Assessment Scale were used. A descriptive and bivariate analysis was performed, with a confidence level of 95%, using Epi-info(r) and Predictive Analytics Software. Work organization was considered critical, socio-professional relationships and work conditions were evaluated as satisfactory. The least satisfied staff concerning their remuneration, and those who suffered a work accident evaluated the socio-professional relationship as critical. The research context is not totally propitious, and interventions are needed in order to avoid harm to staff member health.
