Abstract | Aim: To understand the work status of nurses in long-term care institutions in China for elderly care to provide a reference for further formulating management strategies and promoting the development of long-term care teams. Methods: Using qualitative descriptive research methods, 31 nurses from three long-term care institutions were selected through purposive sampling for in-depth interviews, and a three-week participatory observation was conducted on the daily work of nurses in the above three long-term care institutions. Content analysis was used to analyse data. Results: In our sample, nurses in long-term care institutions had insufficient manpower, generally had low academic qualifications, and lacked professional ability. Their work enthusiasm and initiative need to be further improved. Long-term care nurses were moderately paid, and their salary satisfaction was lower than in other trades. At the same time, the social understanding of the long-term care industry was insufficient, and the social identity of nurses in long-term care institutions was low. Conclusion: The development of long-term care requires the joint efforts of nurses, medical institutions, and society. By improving the system, cultivating talents and building a harmonious atmosphere, we aim to enhance the work enthusiasm of long-term care nurses and promote the stable and orderly development of the long-term care team. Implications for nursing management: Nurses in long-term care institutions are at the core of the ageing age and play a vital role in coping with the ageing problem, meeting long-term care needs, improving the quality of life of old people and reducing the cost of long-term care. The training and management of nurses in long-term care institutions and the construction of the entire long-term care system should be based on China's national conditions and actual needs. |
