Abstract
Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de hemşirelerin merhamet kavramını nasıl tanımladıkları, görüşleri ve deneyimlerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma geniş çaplı uluslararası bir çalışmanın parçası olarak online anket şeklinde tasarlanıp uygulanmıştır. İngiltere’de Middlesex University’den etik kurul izinleri alındıktan sonra, 15 farklı ülkeden hemşirelerin katılımı ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ana veri tabanı içinden Türkiye örneklemini oluşturan hemşirelerin (n=96) verileri bu çalışmada kullanılmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında, Irena Papadopolos tarafından geliştirilen ve her ülke tarafından içerik geçerliliği yapılan anket kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışma ise, Türkiye’de çalışan hemşirelerin ankete verdikleri cevaplara odaklanarak yapılmıştır. Veriler, açık uçlu sorular içerik analizi kullanılarak, çoktan seçmeli sorular ise sayı ve yüzdelik olarak çözümlenmiştir. Türkiye’deki hemşirelerin hastalara, ailelerine ve topluma karşı merhametli bir bakım vermeyi önemsediklerini ortaya koymuştur. Aynı zamanda merhametin öğretilebileceği ancak yeterince öğretilmediği belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen nitel veriler; dokunmak, dinlemek ve anlamak, iletişim ve empati, acılarını hafifletmek, yakın ilişki kurmak olarak sınıflanmıştır. Türkiye’de hemşireler merhametli olmanın hastanın iyileşmesinde ve bakım kalitesinin artmasında önemli bir kavram olduğunu ve bunun davranışlara yansıtılarak gösterilmesi ve hastalara hissettirilmesi gerektiğini ifade ederek inançlarını belirtmişlerdir.

The nurses in Turkey stated that compassion is an important concept in the recovery of patients and the increase of care quality and it should be reflected on behaviors for the patients to feel it.
