Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the mediating effect of compassionate competence on the relationship between nurses' spirituality and attitude toward care of dying patients. Methods: A cross-sectional correlational research design was conducted. The total subjects were 172 nurses at one general hospital in Gangwon-do. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires and analyzed using t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe's test, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analysis. Results: Compassionate competence showed the mediating effect (${\beta}=.19$, p=.025) on the relationship between nurses' vertical spirituality and attitudes toward care of dying patients. However, no mediating effect of compassionate competence on the relationship between nurses' horizontal spirituality and attitudes toward care of dying patients was found. Conclusions: Based on the findings of this study, development of training programs with a focus on spirituality and compassionate competence was highly recommended to improve and maintain nurses' positive attitudes toward caring of the dying patients.

본 연구는 2000년 상반기 한 대학 병원의 호스피스 자원봉사자 교육에 참여한 84명의 설문 응답자를 대상으로 하여 호스피스 자원봉사자의 죽음에 대한 태도와 말기 환자 돌봄에 대한 요구, 말기환자와 가족 돌봄에 대한 태도를 알아보기 위한 서술적 연구이다. 개방형 질문을 이용한 자료에서 응답자의 대부분이 죽음에 임박한다면 가족에 대한 염려와 걱정, 죽음의 고통, 내세의 두려움이 가장 큰 불편함이 될 것이라고 답했고, 사랑과 관심 있는 임종 간호에 대한 요구를 보였으며, 죽음이라는 위기 상황을 극복할 수 있는 가장 큰 자신의 자원을 신앙심으로 인식하고 있다. FATCOD 도구에서(Cronbach ${\alpha}$는 0.778 이었으며) 말기환자와 가족 돌봄이 가치 있는 일이라고 여김에도 불구하고 죽음에 대해 이야기하는 것과 말기환자와 감정을 나누는 것은 여전히 어렵고 불편한 것임을 나타냈다. 또한, 말기환자 돌봄에서 가족 참여는 필수적인 것이고, 말기환자가 남은 여생을 가장 잘 살아갈 수 있도록 정상적인 환경을 유지해야 하며, 죽음이란 모든 인간이 자연스럽게 받아들여야 하는 삶의 한 과정임을 인식하고 있다.

본 연구는 한국인이 생각하는 웰다잉 인식의 구성요소와 삶의 질 간의 상관관계를 알아보고자 한다. 연구대상은 층화 비례배분 방식으로 추출하였고, 전국 17개 시와 도의 만 19세 이상 만 75세 미만의 성인 1,000명으로 선정하였다. 설문구성은 일반적 특성 2문항, 삶의 질 척도 26문항, 웰다잉 인식 척도 57문항이었다. 통계 검정법으로는 빈도 분석, 독립표본 t-검정, 상관분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과는 삶의 질은 사회적인 삶의 질이 가장 높았으며, 가족 죽음의 경험 유무에 따라 가족의 죽음 경험이 있는 대상자가 가족의 죽음 경험이 없는 대상자에 비해, 신체적, 심리적, 환경적, 사회적 영역의 삶의 질이 모두 통계적으로 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 연구대상자의 웰다잉 인식 중에서는 죽음 준비의 점수가 가장 높았으며, 그 중에서도 심리 경제적 부담 경감의 점수가 가장 높았다. 연구대상자의 삶의 질은 웰다잉 인식의 모든 영역인 신체적 증상과 통제, 죽음준비, 죽음환경, 가족 및 사회관계, 병원치료, 심리 존엄 영성 부분에서 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 중년층을 대상으로 한 다른 연구에서는 노후를 위해 죽음을 받아들이는 자세가 우선적으로 중요하다고 인식한 경우와, 죽음준비교육에 참여할 의향이 있다고 응답한 경우가 삶의 질이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 대상자의 삶의 질을 향상시키기 위해서는 죽음준비 및 웰다잉 교육에 웰다잉 인식의 각 영역을 프로그램으로 계획하여 교육한다면 삶의 질을 높이는 데에 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose : This study aimed to develop an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of the experiences of critical care nurses caring for dying patients. Method : Eleven critical care nurses with experience in caring for dying patients were recruited from four tertiary hospitals. Semi-structured face-to-face interviews were conducted between November 2016 and March 2017. The transcribed data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis to identify major themes and sub-themes that represented the experiences of critical care nurses. Results : The following six themes, and twelve sub-themes, were identified: (1) the gap between expectation and reality, (2) a distorted meaning of death, (3) repeated emotional pain and stress, (4) finding a solution alone, (5) sublimation into mission and calling, and (6) integration into one's own life. Conclusion : This study found that critical care nurses experience various psychological difficulties while caring for dying patients, and they made efforts on their own to overcome them. These findings are expected to inform the development of specialized programs to support critical care nurses to tackle these challenges, create guidelines on caring for dying patients, and help promote death education.
