Abstract: (75 Views)
Background: Forgotten nursing care is one of the consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic. Also, moral courage is one of the important factors affecting the quality of nursing care. The present study was conducted to investigate the relationship between forgotten nursing care and moral courage of nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: This descriptive correlational study was conducted on 380 nurses working at educational hospitals affiliated with Hamadan University of Medical Sciences. Sampling was performed through a stratified random method. Data collection tools included Sekarka's Moral Courage and Kalisch and Williams' Forgotten Nursing Care Questionnaires. Data were analyzed using Stata-16 software using Pearson correlation coefficient and linear regression. The significance level of statistical tests was considered to be less than 0.05.
Results: The mean score of forgotten nursing care and moral courage of nurses were 85.51±10.73 and 78.30±14.44 respectively. The results showed that there was a negative and significant correlation between forgotten nursing care and moral courage (r=-0.27, p<0.001).
Conclusion: Based on the results, there was a significant negative relationship between forgotten nursing care and moral courage during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is suggested that organizing training courses to improve the moral courage of nurses can reduce forgotten nursing care.
