ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
This study was conducted to examine the adaptation experience of male nurses working in general wards.METHODS:
Experiential data was collected from 16 general ward nurses through in-depth interviews. Participants were selected from male nurses working in the general wards with over one year of clinical experience at a tertiary university hospital. The main question was “Can you describe your adaptation experience in the general ward as a nurse?” All interviews were recorded and transcribed, then analyzed using Colaizzi's method.RESULTS:
Four categories were derived from theanalysis:
‘difficulties from task adaptation by characteristics’, ‘limited nursing situation and circumstance as a male nurse’, ‘efforts to adapt at general nursing unit’, and ‘self-worth, and worry about something as a male nurse’.CONCLUSION:
Male nurses had a difficulty adapting to work in wards due to lack of multi-tasking skills, as well as some social prejudice or negative views on male nurses. Establishing reasonable guidelines for male nurses in practice, promoting their responsibilities to patients, developing mentoring programs, and reassessing the policy of assigning male nurses to general wards are recommended to help in better adaptation.
