| Abstract | Ciljevi: Cilj istraživanja bio je utvrditi postoje li razlike u ukupnoj razini stresa između dvije skupine patronažnih sestara koje rade u različitim područjima rada (urbano i ruralno područje). Ispitati postoje li razlike u sociodemografskim karakteristikama patronažnih sestara s obzirom na područje rada, te da li postoje razlike u razini stresa patronažnih sestara u odnosu na sociodemografske karakteristike.
Izvori podataka i metode: Po ustroju provedeno je presječno istraživanje u razdoblju od mjesec dana kroz travanj i svibanj 2014 godine. Devedeset i jedan posto (N=83) patronažnih sestara je bilo uključeno u istraživanje. Ispitanice su prema mjestu i uvjetima rada podijeljene u dvije skupine; urbano područje (n=46) i ruralno područje rada (n=45). Istraživanje je provedeno primjenom pouzdanog anonimnog Upitnika koji se sastojao od dva dijela: 1) sociodemografske karakteristike ispitanica, 2) 33 tvrdnje o karakteristikama radnog mjesta patronažnih medicinskih sestara. Rezultati su obrađeni programom SPSS 13,0 i interpretirani na razini značajnosti P<0,05 i P<0,01.
Rezultati: Utvrđeno je da postoje razlike u sociodemografskim karakteristikama između patronažnih sestara Doma zdravlja SDŽ-e koje rade u urbanim i ruralnim područjima rada u odnosu na životnu dob (P= 0,008), ukupni radni staž (P= 0,004) i staž u patronažnoj djelatnosti (P= 0,001). Nije utvrđena razlika u razini stresa ukupnog uzorka patronažnih sestara s obzirom na sociodemografske karakteristike (P>0,05). Istraživanjem nije utvrđena statistički značajna razlika u ukupnoj razini stresa patronažnih sestara Doma zdravlja SDŽ-e u odnosu na urbano i ruralno područje rada (P=0,238), premda postoji značajna razlika na česticama: Osjećam nedostatak odgovarajuće stručne edukacije (P= 0,029), Rijetko komuniciram s kolegama (P=0,042), Umara me vožnja (P=0,001). Ispitanice koje rade u ruralnom području rada imaju više vrijednosti na ovim česticama u odnosu na ispitanice koje rade u urbanim područjima.
Zaključak: Stres je izrazito rizičan čimbenik za ljudsko zdravlje, uzročnik je niza psihičkih i tjelesnih bolesti i poremećaja, a negativno utječe na profesionalno funkcioniranje i kvalitetu života. Rezultati ovog istraživanja donose podatke o razini opterećenja patronažnih sestara, određenim karakteristikama njihovog radnog mjesta te na taj način doprinose novim saznanjima o zadovoljstvu patronažnih sestara. |
| Abstract (english) | Goals: The purpose of this research was to determine if there are any differences in total level of stress between two groups of community-health nurses who are working in different surroundings (urban and rural). Furthermore to examine if differences occur in socio-demographic characteristics of community-health nurses, considering the field of work and if there are differences in stress level of community-health nurses in relation to socio-demographic characteristics.
Data sources and methods: In aspect to structure, cross–sectional research was conducted during a period of one month, from April till May of 2014. 91 % (N= 83) of community-health nurses participated in this research.

The research was conducted with reliable anonymous questionnaire, which consisted of two parts: 1) Socio-demographic characteristics of respondents, 2) 33 claims of working place characteristics of community-health nurses. Results were processed by SPSS 13.0 program and interpreted on significance level P<0,05 i P<0,01.

By conducting this research, no statistically significant difference was found in total stress level of community-health nurses in relation to urban and rural field of labor (P=0,238), although there is significant difference in particles: I feel lack of appropriate professional training (P=0,029), I am rarely communicating with my colleagues (P=0,042), Driving is exhausting me (P=0,001). Respondents which work in rural area tend to have more value on this particles in relation to respondents which work in urban area.
