Abstrakt: PURPOSE: Exploring the Ecological Behavior of Nursing Staff in Dialysis Units and possible correlation with demographic or other factors. MATERIAL AND METHOD: This survey involved 90 Greek nurses who were given an overall anonymous questionnaire. The survey was conducted in hospitals in the Region of Peloponnese and Athens. The statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS statistical package (SPSS Inc., 2003, Chicago, USA). RESULTS: In reference to the greatest reduction potential, 35.2% said that the volume of infectious waste has greater potential for reduction, 31.8% answered that electricity consumption has greater potential, 20.5% water consumption and 12.5% of the consumption of natural gas or oil. About how to obtain greater environmental awareness, 37.1% can influence their colleagues by using guidelines, 23.6% with relative stimulation, 20.2% with educational lectures, 10.1% using poster and 6.7% by viewing educational videos. CONCLUSIONS: The Nursing Staff Dialysis Unit can help protect the environment. Exploring the Ecological Consciousness and the Behavior of Nursing Staff in Dialysis Units should be the subject of wider research longitudinal studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
