Objective To analyze the current status and category characteristics of the nursing practice environment in tertiary hospitals in Shanxi province,and explore the influencing factors of different categories.Methods Using convenience sampling,from August 1st to September 10th,2023,nurses from 17 tertiary hospitals in Shanxi Province were selected as subjects for investigation.The demographic questionnaire and the Nursing Practice Environment Scales were used for investigation.A latent profile analysis(LPA)was performed on characteristics of nursing practice environment,and the influencing factors of the latent profile were identified by single-factor analysis and multinomial logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 13,048 nurses were incorporated,and the nursing practice environment in tertiary hospitals in Shanxi Province scored[84.93(68.19,96.35)]on the Practice Environment Measurement Scale,and their practice environments can be divided into 3 categories potential profiles,namely low perception type(13.99％),middle perception type(31.48％),and high perception type(54.52％).Logistic regression analysis revealed that gender,nature of hospital,whether it is a provincial hospital or not,type of hospital,department,position,and whether recruited with authorization were the influencing factors of the latent profile of the nursing practice environment in tertiary hospitals in Shanxi Province(P＜0.05).Conclusion There was heterogeneity in the characteristics of the nursing practice environment in tertiary hospitals in Shanxi Province,which can be categorized into 3 latent profiles.Nursing managers can conduct individualized interventions according to the influencing factors of these profiles to enhance the nursing practice environment.
