Özet:

 Aim: The aim of the study is to examine nurses attitudes and care behaviors towards elderly patients. Material and Methods: The sample of this descriptive cross-sectional study consisted of 279 nurses working in clinics where primarily elderly patients were hospitalized in university and public hospitals located in a city center. Data were collected using the Sociodemographic Information Form, Kogan Attitudes Towards Older People Scale KAOP, and Care Behaviors Scale-24 CDI-24. Results: It was determined that 43.7 of the nurses were between 30-39 years old, 87.8 were female, and 68.1 were bachelors degrees. The mean scores of the nurses on KAOP were 99.7812.52, and the mean total score of CDI-24 was 5.150.5. A statistically significant difference was found between the nurses age, years of work in the profession, the difficulties experienced by the elderly patients due to their non-compliance with treatment and care, and KAOP p0.05. A weak positive correlation was found between KAOP points and CDI-24 total and subscales p0.05. Conclusion: It was concluded that as nurses positive attitude levels toward elderly patients increased, their perception of the quality of care increased.

 Amaç: Araştırmanın amacı hemşirelerin yaşlı hastalara karşı tutumları ve bakım davranışlarının incelenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırma tanımlayıcı kesitsel araştırmadır. Bir il merkezindeki üniversite hastanesi ve kamu hastanelerinde daha çok yaşlı hastaların yattığı kliniklerde çalışan 279 hemşire araştırmanın örneklemini oluşturdu. Veriler Kogan Yaşlılara Karşı Tutum Ölçeği YKTÖ, Bakım Davranışları Ölçeği-24 BDÖ-24 ve Sosyodemografik Bilgi Formu ile toplandı. Bulgular: Hemşirelerin 43.7sinin 30-39 yaş grubunda, 87.8nin kadın, 68.1nin lisans mezunu olduğu saptanmıştır. Hemşirelerin YKTÖ puan ortalamaları 99.7812.52, BDÖ-24 toplam puan ortalamaları 5.150.57dir. Hemşirelerin yaş, meslekte çalışma yılı, yaşlı hastaların tedavi ve bakıma karşı uyumsuz olmalarından kaynaklı güçlük yaşama durumları ile YKTÖ arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunmuştur p0.05. YKTÖ puanı ile BDÖ-24 toplam ve alt ölçekleri arasında pozitif yönlü çok zayıf anlamlı ilişki saptandıp0.05. Sonuç: Hemşirelerin yaşlı hastalara karşı olumlu tutum düzeyleri arttıkça bakım kalitesini algılama düzeyinin arttığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
