24 hoyrs a day,365 days a year,a resident staying longer than the patient--the hospital career of alien nursing work

Wang, Yi-tung 18 August 2006 (has links)
As our society heads into aging society, along with more double-career family, economic pressure for young couples, and the increase of women employment rate, it becomes inevitable for the government to import alien nursing workers to meet domestic needs. Nowadays, we see these workers cross the border and fly over the ocean to Taiwan ¡V their promised land. Indeed, how much do we know about them? The current research, instead of studying on how these workers influence our society as most of other related literature, focuses on the situations of these alien nursing workers in the hospital, treat them as individuals with emotions and selves not just economic values to Taiwanese. In this thesis, the role that the alien nursing workers play in the medical system and the ways that they interact with other people are discussed. As ¡§role" and "interaction" are both abstract and complicated facets of social life, the research adopts qualitative methods of in-depth interviews and field observation. Six alien nursing workers, three nursing workers, three nurses, a service user, and two government section members are interviewed.
