醫護類學生就醫時病人安全知識、態度及行為之探討－－與非醫護類組學生之比較

The Health Care Students as a Patient: Knowledge, Attitude and Practice about Patient Safety-Compared with Non-Health Care Students

本研究目的是探討醫護類組學生就醫時對病人安全知識、態度及行為，並比較醫護類與非醫護類學生的差異。以某科技大學護理糸（90名）和醫管糸（70名）學生為研究對象，以企管糸（79名）學生為對照組，以結構式問卷蒐集有關學生就醫時的病人安全知識、態度及行為資料，共239份問卷。研究結果顯示護理糸(9.08)與醫管糸(8.71)學生病人安全知識比企管糸(7.33)高且達到顯著差異(p<0.001)，但病人安全態度得分在回歸分析中則以護理糸低於企管糸(P<0.05)。此外，病人安全知識以三年級優於一年級，一年內就醫3次以上優於沒有就醫者；病人安全行為以女生優於男生，有運動習慣優於沒有運動習慣者，關心醫藥新聞優於較不關心醫藥新聞者；而病人安全態度則與其他變項均無顯著相關。本研究建議應注意醫護類組學生的病人安全態度，並建議加強大學生的病人安全教育，以提高學生就醫之安全，並促進將來醫護類組學生就業後醫療院所之病人安全文化。

The aims of this study were to confer the patient safety-related knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) between the departments of health care and non-health care students in the university. The 239 samples came from the departments of Nursing (90 subjects), Health Care Management (70 subjects), and Business Administration (79 subjects) in a university. The structured questionnaire was used to collect data. The results showed that the students in the departments of Nursing (mean= 9.08) and Health Care Management (mean= 8.71) had significantly higher knowledge score of patient safety than those in the department of Business Administration (mean= 7.33). The attitude towards patient safety of the students in the departments of Nursing was lower than those in the department of Business Administration (p<0.05). Furthermore, in the knowledge score, , those in the third-year was higher than in thefirst-year , those seeking medical advice above 3 times in one year was higher than no medical experience. In the practice score, female was significantly higher than male, those taking regular exercise was significantly higher than the others, and those concerning medical news was higher than the others. We suggested that more emphasis is needed on the attitude of patient safety in the nursing students. School authority should take notice of the patient safety education to improve the safety when the students take medical treatment and enhance the hospital culture when the health care students work in the hospital.
