Predictors of Palliative Care Self-efficacy Among Health Care Professionals in Vietnam: A Cross-sectional Study
Abstract:
This study aimed to investigate predictors of palliative care self-efficacy among Vietnamese health care professionals. An online descriptive cross-sectional survey was conducted at 1 hospital in Vietnam. Participants completed survey questionnaires including demographics, professional experience, Palliative Care Self-Efficacy, Palliative Care Quiz for Nursing, Frommelt Attitudes Toward Care of the Dying-Form B, Santa Clara Brief Compassion Scale, and Self-Compassion Scale-Short Form. After data collection, descriptive statistics and stepwise regression were applied for data analysis. A total of 128 nurses and 42 physicians completed the survey. The mean score for palliative care self-efficacy was 27.6 ± 10.6 out of 48. The results indicated that compassion for others, self-compassion, and palliative care knowledge explained 17.8% of health care professionals' self-efficacy levels. This study supports the positive relationship between self-efficacy, compassion for others, and self-compassion among health care professionals, underscoring the need for incorporating compassion training into the curriculum and the training program.
