Knowledge, Attitudes, and Skills of Nurses in Implementing an Early Warning System
Abstract
This study aims to determine the relationship between nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and skills with the implementation of the Early Warning System. This research is a quantitative method with a cross-sectional approach. This research was conducted at the Aceh Regional General Hospital. The population in this study were all nurses in the Inpatient Room with a sample of 209 nurses. The data were collected using a questionnaire as a research instrument and consisting of closed questions. The data were analyzed with SPSS using chi-square and logistic regression model, with a 95% confidence level and the odds ratio. The results showed that nurses' knowledge (p-value 0.017) and skills (p-value 0.001) influenced the implementation of the Early Warning System. Nurse skills are a significant factor, with an Odds Ratio (Exp. B) of 16.05. Therefore, it is recommended for every nurse to attend seminars, training, and other self-development activities. In this case, the increase in nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and skills are very influential in implementing the Early Warning System.
