dc.description.abstractObjective: This study aimed at revealing the opinions of nursing homes employees regarding ethical evaluation of the privacy of older people. Material and Method: The study was conducted between December 2015 and January 2016 with 45 employees working at Manisa Municipal Nursing Home and Manisa Private Foundation Nursing Home. A questionnaire consisting of 10 questions about age, gender, marital status, etc. and the Service Provider Quantitative Survey for Perception and Assessment of Privacy in Services Rendered to the Elderly were used as data collection tools. Results: The mean age of the caregivers working at the nursing homes was 38.04±10.33 (19 – 64) years. 48.9% of the caregivers were female and 51.1% were male. 28.9% of the caregivers were graduates of high school, 62.2% of them were married, 60.0% had less income than their expenses, 24.4% were nurses/healthcare servants, 22.2% patient caregivers and 16.0% cleaning personnel, 75.6% of them lived in provinces most of their time and 77.8% had nobody in need of care in their families. Stating that privacy should not be neglected, all groups in the study had opinions close to each other. However, this belief can also be considered as moderate. No significant correlation was found between the socio-demographic characteristics of the caregivers working at the nursing homes and the mean scores of Necessity of Privacy and Privacy Can Be Neglected sub-domains of the privacy scale or the mean Overall Privacy Scale score (p>0.05). Conclusion: Protection of the privacy of these seniors in a common location in these institutions becomes an important problem. The elderly and the staff working there should come to an agreement concerning their perception of privacy in nursing homes. © 2017, Nobelmedicus. All rights reserved.
