Abstract

<p>The purpose of this study is to clarify factors related to the quality evaluation of dementia nursing care in acute hospitals. We conducted a survey that consisted of individual attributes, organizational attributes, knowledge about dementia, ethical behavior scales, and quality evaluation of dementia nursing. The number of valid responses was 835. The dependent variable was the quality assessment of dementia nursing, and the independent variable was the variables in which there were significant differences in the quality evaluation of dementia nursing care and the univariate analysis of each variable. Multiple regression analysis results showed that the factors related to the quality assessment of dementia nursing were “risk aversion” and “good care” of ethical behavior. The ethical behavior of “risk aversion” meant to sense the distress felt by dementia patients and to avoid pain and danger in the hospitalization environment. It was suggested that enhancing the ethical behavior of “good care”, which means always thinking and acting for the best while searching for the will of dementia patients, may lead to quality evaluation of dementia nursing.</p>
