Abstract

ABSTRACT The goal in this study was to examine the characteristics of the nursing staff's work organization with regard to bed baths. This observational study was conducted with a mixed methods approach and concurrent data collection at inpatient units of a university hospital. The population consisted of adult inpatients and nursing professionals. The sample consisted of 67 patients and 62 professionals. After thematic data analysis, the following established category was found: Potential Risks to the Safety of Professionals and Patients, along with four other emerging categories: Comprehensive Care, Facilities, Organization of Care Processes, and Patient Satisfaction. The descriptive statistical analysis of the quantitative data showed that bed baths lasted an average 15.02 minutes. In 55.2% of the bed baths observed, two professionals were involved. The size of the nursing staff and the inappropriate workspaces affect the organization of care and can lead to adverse events for professionals and patients.
