Objective: to analyze occupational accidents with exposure of nursing technicians to biological material in a school hospital. Method: nursing technicians were invited to answer a questionnaire related to occupational accidents with biological material. Results: 275 professionals from 9 hospital units participated. 76% reported having suffered an accident and the variables “age group” and “employment regime” showed a significant association for accidents (p<0.05). Those hired by the Consolidation of Labor Laws (CLT - Consolidação das Leis do Trabalho) employment regime were 3.5 times more likely to suffer accidents (p=0.04) and institutional capacity building did not show statistical significance (p>0.05). Conclusion: the increase in the number of training did not ensure the reduction of occupational accidents with biological material; and nursing technicians under the age of 30 were more vulnerable. Professionals with a CLT labor contract were more affected than the statutory employees.

“…Focusing on cost reduction, economic effectiveness and productivity, nurses' salaries are reduced while there is increasing clinical pressure, shifting, scarcity, workload, stress, and insecurity at work (European Federation of Nurses Associations (EFN) ; Burke, Ng, & Wolpin, ; Correia, Dussault, & Pontes, ; DeToyer & Verdoot, ; Granero‐Lázaro, Blanch‐Ribas, Roldán‐Merino, Torralbas‐Ortega, & Escayola‐Maranges, ). These factors, considered by some authors as aspects from neoliberal models (Souza & Mendes, ), have been related to worsened nurses' health conditions and increased burn‐out, stress, and vulnerability (de Gonçalves, Pessanha Leite, Souza, & dos Santos, ; de Gonçalves, Souza, Zeitoune, Adame, & Nascimento, ; Llop‐Gironés, Tarafa, & Benach, ; Wisniewski, Silva, Évora, & Matsuda, ).…”

Construction of nursing knowledge in commodified contexts: A discussion paper

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This original article outlines a theoretical path and posterior critical analysis regarding two relevant matters in modern nursing: patterns of knowing in nursing and commodification contexts in contemporary health systems. The aim of our manuscript is to examine the development of basic and contextual nursing knowledge in commodified contexts. For this purpose, we outline a discussion and reflexive dialogue based on a literature search and our clinical experience. To lay the foundation for an informed discussion, we conducted a literature search and selected relevant articles in English, Spanish, and Portuguese that included contents on patterns of knowing, commodification, and nursing published from 1978 to 2017. Globalization, commodification, and austerity measures seem to have negative effects on nursing. Work conditions are worsening, deteriorating nurse-patient relationships, and limiting reflection on practice. Nurses must develop knowledge to challenge and participate in institutional organization and public health policies. Development of nursing knowledge may be difficult to achieve in commodified environments. Consequently, therapeutic care relationships, healthcare services, and nurses' own health are compromised. However, by obtaining organizational, sociopolitical, and emancipatory knowledge, nurses can use strategies to adapt to or resist commodified contexts while constructing basic knowledge. K E Y W O R D Sglobalization, health policy, nurse-patient relationships, nursing knowledge, nursing practice improve practice and global care, contributing to the common good, and working to achieve a fair and strong society. Thus, through organizational, sociopolitical, and emancipatory knowledge, nurses are enabled to use strategies to adapt to or resist commodified contexts while constructing basic patterns of knowing.

“…Neste cenário, o profissional irá desenvolver suas funções em feriados e fins de semana, privando-se de outras atividades, como as de lazer e aquelas em família, com perda na qualidade de vida, do sono e do humor. Com isso, há a possibilidade de alterações no ritmo circadiano, o que gera impacto na QVT, diminuindo o estado de alerta, o desempenho e a capacidade de aprendizado, com maior risco de ferimentos e acidentes de trabalho e diminuição na qualidade da assistência aos pacientes (21,22) .…”
