Aim:
This study aimed to investigate compassion satisfaction (CS) and compassion fatigue (CF) in haematology nurses and their associated factors.
Design:
A cross-sectional survey.
Methods:
The survey was conducted on 336 haematology nurses from 21 hospitals in Sichuan, China. The CS and CF were assessed by the Professional Quality of Life Scale version 5. The CF was determined by burnout and secondary traumatic stress.
Results:
Haematology nurses in China had moderate levels of CS and moderate-to-low CF. Better nursing competence of teaching/consultation and communication/coordination and the percentage of critically ill patients >60% predicted higher CS. The permanent nurse, better nursing competence of communication/coordination and specialized clinical practice predicted less burnout, while working >40 hr per week or more nurse-patient conflict events predicted more burnout. In addition, working >40 hr per week, more nurse-patient conflict events and having the need of psychological support predicted higher secondary traumatic stress.
