Purpose: Accreditation has become obligatory for long-term care hospitals and the process can affect 'job stress' and 'burnout resilience' among nurses in these hospitals. The purpose of this study was to examine how these factors are related among nurses in long-term care hospitals. Methods: Participants were 88 nurses working in J province long-term care hospitals which had received accreditation within the past one year. A structured questionnaire was used for data collection which was analyzed using SPSS/WIN 18.0 Window Program for descriptive statistics, t-test, one way-ANOVA, and Pearson correlation coefficients. Results: Mean scores were for 'Recognition of healthcare accreditation', 3.41±0.50 of a possible 5, for 'job stress', 3.10±0.47 and for 'burnout resilience', 3.46±0.48. 'Recognition of healthcare accreditation' showed a significant negative correlation with 'job stress' and a significant positive correlation with 'burnout resilience' among nurses. 'Job stress' had a significant negative correlation with 'burnout resilience' of nurses. Conclusion: These findings suggest that 'burnout resilience' can play an important role in decreasing 'job stress' and promoting 'recognition of healthcare accreditation'. Developing systematic training programs and institutional support systems are necessary so that nurses face less job stress and develop more burnout resilience and can better recognize the importance of healthcare accreditation.
