Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Nursing Education
  • Emergency Preparedness

Background:

  • The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted critical gaps in nurses' emergency response capabilities during public health crises.
  • There is a need to assess and improve nursing personnel's emergency preparedness following the pandemic.
  • Understanding nurses' competence is vital for optimizing public health crisis response strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the emergency response competence of nurses in infectious disease scenarios.
  • To identify specific training needs and influencing factors for nurses' emergency response.
  • To explore methods for enhancing nurses' preparedness for public health emergencies.

Main Methods:

  • A multistage stratified sampling method was used to select 80 hospitals across 5 provinces.
  • 2055 nurses from various departments and specialties anonymously completed a questionnaire on infectious disease emergency response capabilities.
  • Data analysis included descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression to identify significant factors.

Main Results:

  • Nurses achieved a mean score of 141.75 (SD 20.09) in infectious disease emergency response competence, indicating moderate to above-average levels.
  • A significant portion of nurses lacked sufficient drills (29.93%) and training (24.43%), despite 91.19% expressing willingness for further education.
  • Higher frequency of drills and training positively correlated with competence, while nurses with master's degrees or higher showed lower scores compared to those with diplomas/associate degrees.

Conclusions:

  • Frequent drills and comprehensive training are crucial for enhancing nurses' emergency response competence.
  • Lack of practical experience in higher education may negatively impact nurses' performance during emergencies.
  • Personalized, short-term training programs, including simulation drills, are recommended to improve nurses' proficiency.
