Purpose: This study investigated the relationship of the partnership between nurses and parents of hospitalized children with the quality of pediatric nursing care as perceived by pediatric nurses.Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 90 nurses. The data collected were analyzed using the independent t-test and the Pearson correlation coefficient.Results: The level of partnership between nurses and parents showed significant differences by nurses’ age (t=2.22, <i>p</i>=.029) and marital status (t=2.54, <i>p</i>=.013). The quality of pediatric nursing care was found to significantly differ by the nurses’ age (t=2.62, <i>p</i>=.013), marital status (t=4.17, <i>p</i><.001), whether nurses had children (t=2.53, <i>p</i>=.020), pediatric ward work experience (t=2.43, <i>p</i>=.020), and total work experience (t=2.51, <i>p</i>=.016). The level of partnership between nurses and parents was positively correlated with the quality of pediatric nursing care (r=.48, <i>p</i><.001).Conclusion: To improve the quality of nursing care for hospitalized children and their parents, it is important to consider the specific characteristics of pediatric nurses, whose clinical skills should be improved.

This study examined the effects of nurse–parent partnership, nurses’ attitude to families’ importance in nursing care, and nursing professional self-efficacy on the quality of pediatric nursing care. Background: The quality of pediatric nursing care based on family-centered care is defined by the qualitative care behavior of nurses from the perspective of hospitalized children and their families. Methods: The participants were 218 nurses in pediatric wards in hospitals. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and path analysis. Results: Among the factors influencing the perceived quality of respect, explanation, and skillfulness, nurse experience showed the greatest total effect. The nurse–parent partnership had the greatest direct effect on the quality of respect and the greatest total effect on kindness. Nursing professional self-efficacy showed the greatest direct effect on explanation and the largest total effect on nurse–parent partnership and nurses’ attitude to families’ importance in nursing care. Conclusions: To improve the quality of pediatric nursing care, it is necessary to provide a working environment in which pediatric nurses can work continuously. Hospitals should also develop a program that enables proper collaboration between nurses and parents of hospitalized children and improves nursing professional self-efficacy.
