[Psychosocial strain and work satisfaction of oncologic nurses. Results of an empirical study in an acute care hospital].
78 nurses in acute care of cancer patients were questioned during the implementation of psychooncology at the hospital of Herford ("Herford Model", supported by the SULO-Stiftung) on psychosocial aspects of the job. The predominant source of strain as reported by the nurses are doubts about the principle of maximum therapy in many cases (57% expressing considerable strain), followed by suffering with the patient and from team interactions. Positive aspects of the job are seen in "autonomous and responsible work" (84%), but also in teamwork and intense contact with patients. Overall job satisfaction is rather high, only 10% express clear dissatisfaction in this confidential investigation. Nurses expect from psychooncology the psychosocial care for the patients, but also a clear feedback for the staff and psychosocial staff training.
