RESILIENCE AND WELL-BEING AMONG NURSES IN SELECTED HOSPITALS, KATHMANDU

Öz

Introduction: In Nepal, there is a research gap regarding the Well-Being (WB) and resilience of nursing employees, despite their critical role in health care. This study aims to fill this gap by investigating the levels of resilience and WB among nurses. Researchers selected a private hospital in Basuandara, Kathmandu. The study also explored the socio-demographic factors associated with these outcomes. The field provided variables and insights into the challenges faced by the nursing profession in Nepal and an informed-targeted intervention to support their WB. Methods: A descriptive-analytical study was conducted at three hospitals in Kathmandu to assess nurses' resilience and WB. A sample of 200 nurses was selected using convenience sampling. Self-administered surveys with validated tools (CD-RISC 10 and WHO-5) were used. Data analysis involved SPSS, employing descriptive statistics, and regression, Ethical clearance and confidentiality were ensured. Results: The results of the study showed that 38.5% of the participants have low resilience, indicating potential areas of concern. Simultaneously, 38.5% reported a low level of WB. The analysis also identified significant associations between resilience and work experiences, as well as WB and factors such as age, type of job, and work experiences. These findings highlighted the importance of considering these variables when implementing interventions to enhance resilience and WB among nurses. Conclusion: In conclusion, this study found that a significant proportion of nurses in selected hospitals in Basuandhara, Kathmandu, had a low level of resilience and wellbeing. Treated intervention is necessary. Further research should include larger standards with objective measures for a comprehensive understanding of nursing WB.
