注册护士(RN)和护理工作者(CWS)在为老年人提供临终关怀方面发挥着重要作用，但人们对注册护士和CWS在日本的态度知之甚少。在这项研究中，464名在日本设施中工作的RN和CWS被要求完成一份自填式问卷，问卷内容包括弗罗梅尔特对临终关怀的态度量表，表格B，日文版(FATCOD-Form B-J)和死亡态度概况(DAP)，日文版。共收回问卷388份(83.6%)，完成问卷367份(79.1%)。最终样本包括190个RN和177个CWS。多元回归分析显示，对临终关怀的良好态度与出席研讨会人数呈正相关，与对死亡的恐惧呈负相关。
Registered nurses (RNs) and care workers (CWs) have important roles in providing end-of-life care to older adults, but little is known about the attitudes of RNs and CWs in Japan. In this study, 464 RNs and CWs working in facilities in Japan were asked to complete a self-administered questionnaire that included the Frommelt Attitude Toward Care of the Dying Scale, Form B, Japanese version (FATCOD-Form B-J) and the Death Attitude Profile (DAP), Japanese version. A total of 388 (83.6%) questionnaires were returned, and 367 (79.1%) were fully completed. The final sample included 190 RNs and 177 CWs. Multiple regression analysis showed that better attitudes toward caring for the dying were positively associated with seminar attendance and negatively associated with fear of death.
