The management of nursing resource is very important. that is because nursing staff accounts for 30-40% of total staff in a hospital and nurses provide patoents with attentive service for hours daily. The continuous turnover of nursing staff. however, impedes the quality-oriented nursing care, which will consequently leads to the loss of human and material resource in competitive society. This study aimed to calculate nurse's activity and compare the activity amount based on career experience. Futhermore it aimed to find factors which would influence 'quality weighed direct nursing activity amount'. Questionnaires and check lists for this study were distributed to nurses in a suburban hospital outside of Seoul from October 20 to November 14. 1997. The nursing activities were calculated according to professionality. independency and working hour. And then it were accumulated by quality score. The collected data was analyzed by statistical methods as t-test, ANOVA, correlation, multiple regression. The results of this study were as follows ; Firstly, carrel' experience had no influence on the quality weighed nursing activity amount. But the quality level of service of skilled nurses was higher than that of new nurses. Secondly, career was a variable affecting the quality in nursing service. So career was positively related to the quality of nursing care. Patient's disease severity and number of patient were positively correlated with weighed nursing activity amount. But job satisfaction was negatively correlated v:ith the amount. Thirdly, the independent variables which had significant influence on the weighed nursing activity amount were disease severity and the number of patients, The severity score and number of patient were directly proportional to the weighed nursing activity amount. This results indicated· that weighed nursing activity amount was influenced by the number of patient and patient's disease severity. The quality score of nursing services for experienced members is higher than that of new staff. But both new and skilled staff showed no difference in the quality weighed nursing activity amount. Internal and. external environment influences nursing activities. The quality of nursing services is very important factor in nursing activity. Therefore nursing managers should make an effort to improve nursing care quality through continuous research. Also they should try to maintain experience nurses and assign nursing staff appropriately with patient's severity and other relevant factors being considered. The quality-improved nursing care in the hospital will strengthen hospital's competitiveness.

To achieve the purposes, the questionnaire was developed and distributed to 280 people who had a direct experience with nursing services subjected hospitals in Seoul at the time of screening. Among them, 229 responses were turned out to be useful and used for final analysis. The measurement instrument for hospital nursing service quality evaluation was modified from the SERVQUAL model originated from Parasuraman, Zeithaml, and Berry (1988). For data analysis, SPSS/PC and PC-MDS program were used. The results were as follows : 1) The perception map showed that the seven subjected hospitals were divided into three groups. It could be interpreted that the hospitals in the same group had a strong competitive relationships. Because the nursing services' scores of hospitals C and E were higher than those of other hospitals, they could be served as a benchmark for the other hospitals. 2) The marketing place of hospital nursing services was divided by four. Since service generally had a strong point in nearby service market segment. Aiming an nearby hospital nursing services market segment by the hospital nursing services department was regarded as a good repositioning strategy. 3) When consumers evaluated the quality of hospital nursing services, they were greatly affected by the hospitals' overall image or other characteristics. Therefore, for improving hospital's nursing services, hospital nursing services department requires a great deal of labor to improve hospitals' overall image or other characteristics.

본 연구는 간호사가 지각하는 간호조직문화와 간호서비스의 질 간의 관계에서 직무열의의 매개효과를 확인하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상 및 자료수집은 2022년 6월 1일부터 6월 7일까지 수집하였으며 국내 포털사이트 내 간호사 대상 온라인 커뮤니티 통해 모집한 병원급 이상의 의료기관에서 근무하고 있는 간호사 215명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구결과 관계지향문화(Z=3.88, p<.001)와 업무지향문화(Z=3.16, p=.001)가 간호서비스의 질에 미치는 영향에 대해 직무열의가 완전매개 하는 것으로 나타났으며, 위계지향문화(Z=2.39, p=.017)가 간호서비스의 질에 미치는 영향에 대해 직무열의는 부분매개 하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 간호서비스의 질을 향상시키기 위해서 응급상황시 신속하고 정확한 대응이 필요한 간호업무 특성을 고려한 질서와 절차를 바탕으로 구성원들 간에는 신뢰관계를 형성할 수 있도록 하며 조직의 목표달성을 위해 효율적으로 업무를 수행하고자 하는 문화를 형성하여 직무열의를 함께 증진시키는 효율적인 간호조직 관리방안이 필요하겠다.
