| Abstract |
A questionnaire survey of 126 men and 225 women working in small and large institutions for the mentally retarded was conducted in 1992 to 1993 in Germany. The purpose of the survey was to compare job satisfaction and stress of nursing personnel in small community-integrated institutions for the mentally retarded with that in large isolated institutions. Independent of the size and type of institution, the degree of training and continued education of the nursing personnel turned out to be the most important factor influencing job satisfaction and subjectively perceived stress. |
