摘要：In some Asian and African countries, caregivers of patients are permitted to reside in hospital rooms and support the daily tasks of patient care. To solve the various problems that this system could cause, the Korean government has established a comprehensive nursing service, whereby caregivers are no longer permitted in the hospital and, instead, nurses provide all the patient care. This study aimed to identify and evaluate the effectiveness of the comprehensive nursing service, by surveying 1348 nurses to evaluate nursing outcomes—specifically, the Nurses’ Assessment of Quality Scale, job satisfaction, and turnover intention. A total of 396 patients were also surveyed to determine patient outcome, in particular patient satisfaction. In the comprehensive nursing service ward, the total score on the Nurses’ Assessment of Quality Scale, job satisfaction, and patient satisfaction scores were higher than in the non-comprehensive nursing service ward. Moreover, turnover intention was lower. All differences were statistically significant. The results of this study demonstrate that the decision to implement policy-based comprehensive nursing services has thus far been beneficial. In the future, the government should revise and supplement its policies through various socioeconomic assessments.
