Abstract

Aim: to assess the implementation of the nursing process and its associated factors among Jordanian nurses. Design: A Descriptive cross-sectional design was used. Methods: The Arabic version of Salcedo (2004) tool was used to collect data on the implementation of nursing process from 309 nurse participants selected by consecutive sampling method, from February 2023 to June 2023. The study was conducted in Jordanian health care settings, which were distributed over four governorates including Amman, Irbid, Jerash, and Al-Mafraq including three governmental, two private, and one teaching hospitals. Descriptive statistics and the Chi-square test were used to analyze data. A statistical significance of p < 0.05 was assumed. Results: Nearly half of the study participants had implemented the nursing process. Female nurses were significantly more likely to implement nursing process than male nurses [χ2 (1) = 5.403), p =0.020]. Postgraduate nurses were significantly less likely to implement the nursing process than nurses with bachelor's degrees [χ2 (2) = 16.215), p<.000]. Nurses who were working in governmental hospitals were significantly more probably to implement nursing process than those who were working in private hospitals [χ2 (1) = 4.857), p =0.028]. A minority of study participants reported being engaged in workshops addressing the nursing process in their institutions. Accordingly, it is recommended that the administrative body should hold training sessions and conferences that enable nurses to update their knowledge of the nursing process at both theoretical and practical aspects. Furthermore, it is recommended to provide the infrastructure and materials necessary for application of nursing process, particularly the electronic documentation systems. Qualitative research should be conducted to study the contextual factors that might affect the implementation of nursing process, particularly sociocultural factors. Conclusion: The level of nursing process implementation among Jordanian nurses was found to be low. Female nurses, who had bachelor's degree, and who were working in governmental hospitals were significantly more likely to implement the nursing process.
