Objective To evaluate the influence of personalized nursing intervention on the negative emotions after occupational exposure for nurses in the Emergency Department, in order to provide effective nursing intervention methods for relieving nurses' negative emotions after occupational exposure. Methods Twenty nurses with occupational exposure between January and September 2013 were chosen to be the control group, and another 20 nurses with occupational exposure between October 2013 and October 2014 were designated as the personalized nursing group. The level of depression and anxiety was compared between the two groups by using the self-rating depression scale (SDS) and self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) on the exposure day and 5 weeks after the exposure. Results Before intervention, SDS score of the control group was 0.65±0.04 and of the personalized nursing group was 0.63±0.05, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (t=0.59, P=0.44); SAS score of the control group was 51.98±6.77 and of the personalized nursing group was 50.73±10.03, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (t=0.37, P=0.70). After the intervention, personalized nursing group had lower scores of SDS and SAS than the control group. SDS score was 0.64±0.11 in the control group and 0.50±0.09 in the personalized nursing group with a significant difference (t=5.11, P < 0.01); SAS score was 49.53±9.49 in the control group and 42.66±9.53 in the personalized nursing group, and the difference was statistically significant (t=4.10, P < 0.01). Conclusion The personalized nursing intervention can effectively alleviate negative emotions after occupational exposure for nurses in the Emergency Department.
