Introduction: The role of Nurse Unit Manager is to improve the nurses’ performance in the context of their professional services. This role consists of planning, organizing, actuating and controlling. The aim of this systematic review was to determine the influence of the nurse unit manager’s management functions related to the nurses’ performance.Methods: The literature search was conducted in the PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest, Science Direct and SAGE databases with the keywords ‘head nurses’, ‘management function’ and ‘nurse performance’. The articles were reviewed using the inclusion criteria, which was that the title and abstract was in accordance with the desired topic, that the article aimed to analyze the influence of the nurse unit manager’s management functions related to the nurses’ performance and that it was explained in English. The exclusion criteria were that the title, abstract and purpose of the article was not in accordance with the topic of focus. The search identified 15 relevant journals from the 276.303 articles published between 2014 and 2019.Results: The results indicate a significant relationship exists between the role of the nurse unit manager and nursing work performance.Conclusion: To improve the management function of the nurse unit manager, it is necessary to conduct training for the nurse unit manager to allow them to better understand the functions and role of the nurse unit manager.
Abstrak: Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara yang rawan terhadap bencana banjir yang sangat berisiko mengakibatkan kerugian materi hingga korban jiwa. Berdasarkan pengamatan selama ini, kita lebih banyak melakukan kegiatan pasca bencana (post event) berupa emergency response dan recovery daripada kegiatan sebelum bencana berupa disaster reduction atau mitigasi dan disaster preparedness. Padahal, apabila kita memiliki sedikit perhatian terhadap kegiatan-kegiatan sebelum bencana, kita dapat mereduksi potensi bahaya/kerugian (damages) yang mungkin timbul ketika terjadi bencana banjir. Tujuan dari kegiatan ini adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesiapsiagaan masyarakat dalam menghadapi bencana banjir melalui edukasi dan simulasi menggunakan Tabletop Disaster Exercise (TDE). Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Batua Makassar dengan jumlah peserta 30 masyarakat di RW 10, Kel Batua, Kec Manggala Makassar. Kegiatan yang dilakukan yaitu edukasi berupa penyuluan kesehatan tentang bencana banjir dan simulasi bencana banjir menggunakan table top disaster. Untuk mengevaluasi keberhasilan kegiatan ini, maka tim membagikan angket untuk menilai kesiapsiagaan perserta terhadap bencana banjir. Kegiatan ini terlaksana dengan baik dan lancar serta telah terjadi peningkatan pengetahuan dan kesiapsiagaan masyarakat yaitu 30 (100%) peserta berada dalam kategori baik dalam menghadapi bencana banjir sehingga diharapkan masyarakat dapat meminimalisir dampak dan kerugian yang ditimbulkan oleh bencana banjir.Abstract: Indonesia is one of the countries that are prone to flood disasters that are very risky to cause material losses to fatalities. Based on observations so far, we do more post-disaster activities (post events) in the form of emergency response and recovery than activities before disasters in the form of disaster reduction or mitigation and disaster preparedness. In fact, if we have more attention to activities before the disaster, we can reduce the potential danger / loss (damages) that may arise when a flood disaster occurs. The purpose of this activity is to increase knowledge and preparedness in the face of flood disasters through education and simulation using Tabletop Disaster Exercise (TDE). This activity was held in the working area of the “Puskesmas” Batua Makassar with a total of 30 participants in RW 10, District Manggala, Makassar City. The activities carried out are education in the form of health counseling about flood disasters and simulation of flood disasters using table top disasters. To evaluate the success of this activity, the team distributed questionnaires to assess the preparedness of participants for flood disasters. This activity is carried out well and smoothly and there has been an increase in public knowledge and preparedness, namely 30 (100%) participants are in the good category in dealing with flood disasters so that it is hoped that the community can minimize the impact and losses caused by flood disasters.
Introduction: Nurses are professionals that work by involving cognitive and emotional aspects simultaneously when providing nursing care, which provides both positive and negative experiences. These experiences can affect nurses' professional quality of life (Pro-QOL). Professional quality of life has three dimensions, namely burnout (BO), compassion satisfaction (CS) and Secondary Traumatic Stress (STS). This paper presents a systematic review of the literature that examined factors that influence the professional quality of life on clinical nurses.Methods: Articles are obtained from the Scopus, Science Direct and Emerald databases using keywords Compassion Satisfaction, Burnout, Secondary Traumatic Stress, Nurse. The search identified 69 articles and 15 relevant research articles published between 2014-2019.Results: The results show that the inability of nurses to control the core of self-evaluation and the five-factor model (FFM) of personality traits, high workload, pressure in the work and imbalance between rewards and work, coping nurses and poor emotional support, rejection and giving up behavior can increase the number of those with compassion fatigue.Conclusion: The results show that the inability of nurses to control the core of self-evaluation and the five-factor model (FFM) of personality traits, high workload, pressure in the work and imbalance between rewards and work, coping nurses and poor emotional support, rejection and giving up behavior can increase the number of those with compassion fatigue.
Introduction: Children often experience anxiety when undergoing the treatment process at the hospital. Efforts to reduce such anxiety can be done with music therapy and bibliotherapy. This study aims to analyze the differences in the effectiveness of music therapy and bibliotherapy in reducing anxiety in children before getting intravenous therapy.Methods: The research design was quasi-experimental, with the pretest and posttest approach. The population was 178 with 32 samples, each of the 16 respondents were given music therapy and bibliotherapy using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected with observation sheets from the adoption of the HAM-A scale, analyzed by the Wilcoxon test and independent T test at a significance level of p ≤ 0.05.Results: There were differences in children's anxiety when getting intravenous therapy before and after music therapy and bibliotherapy with p = 0.001 (p <0.05), and there was no difference in the effectiveness of the two p values = 0.91 (p> 0.05), but the average bibliotherapy reduced anxiety by 65%, and music therapy by 57%.Conclusion: Bibliotherapy can be given as complementary therapy in children before intravenous therapy.
Introduction: Patient services at the hospital cannot be separated from the role of the nurse. Therefore, nurses must work professionally to provide better nursing care. There are several factors that can affect the performance of the nurses, one of which is job satisfaction. The purpose of a systematic review is to understand the factors that influence the job satisfaction of nurses in hospitals.Methods: For a systematic review, the search was focused on the PubMed, Science Direct and Scopus database literature with the keywords ‘job satisfaction’ and ‘nurses’. The search identified 15 relevant research articles from the 10,530 original articles that were full texts published between 2015 and 2018.Results: The results showed that the job satisfaction of the nurses was influenced by their leadership, work environment, career path, the relationship with their co-workers, salary, the relationship between the organizations, appreciation, communication, opportunity, organizational commitment, work schedule, work stress, empowerment and work rotation. The results also indicated that high job satisfaction leads to lowering nurse retention and burnout, in addition to an improved quality of patient care.Conclusion: The nurse’s job satisfaction needs to get serious attention from hospital management because it plays an important role in improving the health care service quality in the hospital.
