Effects of Physical Environment on the Stress Levels of Hemodialysis Nurses in Ankara Turkey

摘要

This study has been planned and executed as a field study for identifying the effect of physical environment on the stress levels of hemodialysis nurses who work in the official and private hemodialysis centers in the capital city of Turkey, Ankara (n = 161). According to the results obtained from the study, it has been seen that “education level” and “institution of employment” of the hemodialysis nurses are significantly related with the stress levels of the hemodialysis nurses. Nurses’ age, marital status, number of children, occupational seniority, years of working, employment status, husbands’ occupation and husbands’ educational levels are not significantly related with their stress levels.
