[Working conditions in 22 Hamburg homes for the aged from the viewpoint of the personnel].
A 23-item questionnaire measuring 4 relatively independent dimensions of working conditions and work atmosphere was developed on the basis of 252 respondents of the nursing staff in 22 institutions for the elderly, each comprising different levels of care. The factoranalytically derived and itemanalytically tested subscales measure the relation to management, colleagues and the aged inhabitants as well as working load. These institutional characteristics can be well illustrated in profiles and differentiate between single institutional different types of facilities and groups of them, belonging to different organisations. The validity of the different dimensions could be proven with regard to external criteria, both on facility level and on individual basis. According to our experience such profiles of working climate are well suited to stimulate problem discussions within the institutions and the exchange of experiences between the managers of different facilities.
