A cross-cultural study of the concept of caring through behaviours: patients' and nurses' perspectives in six different EU countries

Original language description

Aim.This paper is a report of an international study of patients' and nurses' perceptions of nurse caring behaviours. Method. A descriptive comparative survey design was used to analyse a sample of surgical patients (n=1659) and their nurses (n=1195) in88 wards of 34 hospitals in Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Finland, Greece, Hungary and Italy. Data were collected in autumn 2009 using the CBI-24. Results. Independent samples t-tests showed important differences between nurses' and patients' views. Although both groups perceived knowledge and skill as being the most important sub-scale, the nurses' responses were higher compared to patients (P&lt;0?05) with important differences in the 'assurance of human presence' (P&lt;0?001) and the 'respectful deference to others' (P&lt;0?001) sub-scales. Cross-country comparisons showed important differences between the nurses' (F=24?199, P&lt;0?001) and patients' views on caring (F=26?945, P&lt;0?001).
