Abstract

Objectives: Due to the aging population, there is an increase in people over 65 who need palliative care. The nursing staff is in continuous contact with these patients. Job satisfaction and laboral factors that surround the worker can alter the way of carrying out their work directly influencing the patient. The main objective of the study is to see if the degree of job satisfaction influences the degree of job stress of nurses working in palliative care units with geriatric patients terminals. Methodology: A questionnaire was administered to 162 nurses from the palliative care units of the Galician Public Health Service, the Canary Islands Health Service and Galician residential gerontology centers; an assessment instrument consists of a questionnaire of socio-demographic data and the Maslach Burnout Inventory, formed by three dimensions (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and reduced personal accomplishment). Results: By increasing the degree of job satisfaction in the workplace, there will be a reduction of emotional exhaustion workers. By decreasing the degree of satisfaction in relation to the ability of reconciling work and family life, it makes the degree of worker looks emotional exhaustion increased. Conclusions: emotional exhaustion and depersonalization exist in the nursing staff of the palliative care units working with geriatric terminal patients. It has created an ideal to work in these units without showing a high degree of work stress job profile.
