Özet

Background: There are limited studies on substance use in nurses. The importance of the role of nurse managers was emphasized in previous studies; however, there were no studies that revealed their experiences throughout the process. Methods: A qualitative design was used. The data were collected using a snowball method with purposeful sampling methods. The inclusion criterion was being a nurse manager who had worked with nurses who had used psychoactive substances. Interviews were conducted with a total of seven participants using a semi-structured interview form. Qualitative content analysis was performed after the interviews. Results: As a result of the analysis of reports of individual in-depth interviews conducted with a total of seven participants, and examination of the literature regarding the issue, experiences of nurse managers who had worked with nurses with substance use were examined in three main themes ? 1) identifying substance-using nurses, 2) interventions, and 3) feelings and opinions of nurse managers Conclusions: Nurse managers identifying the nurses with substance use and managing the process appropriately is the key point in ensuring that these nurses receive support and patient safety is provided without interruptions. Therefore it is important that the experience of nurse managers is investigated. © 2023 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
