In Japan, the role of discharge support nurses in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) is becoming more important as the survival rate of newborns increases. The purpose of this study was to clarify the discharge support practices of nurses in the NICU in Niigata Prefecture. A descriptive, crosssectional study was conducted among discharge planning nurses (DPNs) working in NICUs in Niigata Prefecture. The survey items included basic attributes, planning skills of DNPs (measured using the Japanese version of the Nurses' Discharge Planning Ability Scale [J-NDPAS], learning opportunities, environment for consultation, and difficulties. Sixteen DNPs (response rate: 85.7%) were included in the analysis. The average age of the respondents was 42 years. Eighty percent of them experienced difficulties with discharge support, and 50% of them had no opportunity to learn. The learning opportunities and satisfaction pertaining to discharge support significantly differed among high and low J-NDPAS scores. It is important to evaluate discharge support in the NICU and educational support to create a continuous learning environment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
