Model Development of Professional Nursing Care Method Based-Knowledge Management (Pncm+Km) to Improve Nursing Performance

Abstract

Nursing is one of the professions in the health care that is often used as a benchmark image of a hospital. The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of individual variable (X1), psychology (X2), organization (X3), the knowledge transfer process (X4), and technology (X5) for the professional nursing care method (X6). Data collection technique is by questionnaire. The numbers of sample are 140 nurses. The tool analysis is by structural equation model (SEM). From the results of hypothesis testing, the individual variable has sig. 0,003<0,05 (5%), psychological variable has sig. 0,0001<0,05 (5%),and organizational variable has sig. 0,0001<0,05 (5%). This suggests that psychological variable, individual, and organizational variable significantly influence the professional nursing care method based knowledge management (PNCM+KM). While the knowledge transfer process variable has a sig. value 0,115>0,05 (5%), and technology variable has a sig. value0,490>0,05 (5%). This indicates that the knowledge transfer process and technology variables do not significantly affect PNCM.

After the model is formed, the training model is done with the average score of knowledge of nurses experienced a considerable improvement after being trained with t test results as amount of 14,42 and ? value of 0,001<?=0,05. In order to improve the performance of nursing in the hospital, it is recommended to implement a model PNCM+KM.
