A unique strategy for pediatric community health nursing for ADN students.

Students were overwhelmingly positive when given the opportunity to evaluate the pilot project and the model of pediatric community health nursing. According to the students, the strong points of the model were the orientation before the community experience, the presence of faculty of the community, the ability to contact faculty when needed, and the postclinical conference. The students' comments confirmed the faculty's belief that a clinical experience in community health nursing must place more emphasis on the specialty of community health nursing to be meaningful for students. To do the of job of educating tomorrow's nurses, ADN faculty should develop new strategies for teaching the pediatric clinical component of community health nursing. Clearly, hospitals are no longer the exclusive sites where students learn about patient and family needs and nursing care delivery. Community-based and community-focused experiences will continue to be required so that nursing students are prepared to practice in a dynamic and changing healthcare environment.     

Using an Unfolding Simulation With Maternity and Pediatric Nursing Students

Providing appropriate and timely learning experiences for maternity and pediatric clinical rotations can pose challenges for nursing programs. Learning experiences for student nurses may be limited because of a number of variables, including patient availability, the ability to conduct assessments, availability of clinical sites, and number of students allowed. Nursing programs may elect to creatively utilize simulation experiences to promote student learning in specialty areas. This article discusses an unfolding simulation experience with maternity and pediatric nursing students.     

Research on teaching reform of rehabilitation nursing major based on modern apprenticeship system

Objective: To determine the specific indicators of nursing students' competency in rehabilitation nursing posts; to form a training mode of competency of nursing students in rehabilitation nursing posts based on a modern apprenticeship system; and to preliminarily explore the effect of this training mode. Methods: The literature review method and the Delphi method were used to determine the specific indicators of nursing students' competency in rehabilitation nursing posts. Based on the competency index results, the training mode of modern apprenticeship in rehabilitation nursing specialty was determined. Taking a university as an example, the modern apprenticeship training model of rehabilitation nursing specialty was put into the operation group, and the students were selected into the experimental group. The nursing students who accepted the traditional training mode were selected as the control group to compare the competency of the two groups of nursing students before graduation. Results: Form a total of 191 indicators of nursing students rehabilitation nursing post competency content. The competency scores of nursing students in the rehabilitation nursing posts of the experimental group were higher than those in the control group in 24 work tasks, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Based on the modern apprenticeship system, the training model of nursing students' competency in rehabilitation nursing posts could improve the matching degree of nursing posts of nursing students and may provide a reference for improving the training of rehabilitation nursing talents.

Implementation of an intraoperative clinical experience for senior level baccalaureate nursing students

Perioperative nursing is a specialty that has been eliminated from many nursing education programs. With the loss of perioperative clinical experiences, the number of students pursuing a career in perioperative nursing after graduation has declined. A faculty member at one Midwestern school of nursing developed and implemented a perioperative clinical experience for senior-level baccalaureate nursing students in a critical care nursing course. This program, developed with the assistance of four local hospitals and the college of nursing, included an eight-hour OR orientation and 56 clinical hours. Students were placed in the OR under preceptor guidance and supervision. Feedback from evaluations was positive and provided recommendations for improving the program, in particular, to allow more clinical hours and more hands-on experience for the students.

Factors influencing theoretical knowledge and practical skill acquisition in student nurses: an empirical experiment

A previous qualitative study [Nurse Education Today 20 (2000) 499] investigated perceptions of nurse teachers, student nurses and preceptors of the theory-practice gap said to exist within nursing. One theme was views of how the theory-practice gap could be closed. A subsequent quantitative study is reported here, in which this theme was translated into three factors. A full factorial experimental design was used to study the effect of these factors on theoretical knowledge and practical skill acquisition in a sample of first year undergraduate student nurses from one institution of higher education (n=19). The effect of whether a nurse teacher or preceptor taught students theoretical elements relating to a clinical specialty, whether the nurse teacher and preceptor collaborated on the content of what was taught to students and whether students went straight to, or delayed the clinical specialty following theoretical input, was examined. The results demonstrated preceptors were more effective than nurse teachers in promoting theoretical knowledge relating to their clinical specialty. Collaboration between the preceptors and nurse teachers on teaching content was ineffective at increasing theoretical knowledge. Delay between theoretical input and clinical experience was not detrimental for medical placements and for rehabilitation placements, resulted in an improved theoretical knowledge.

Rehabilitation nursing in Australia: a valid and valued specialty

While rehabilitation nursing has been largely overlooked in Australia, it is becoming more visible. Its invisible nature is highlighted when a comparison to acute care nursing is made. However, through the activities of the rehabilitation nurses' professional nursing organisation and recent research there is a growing awareness of the nature of rehabilitation. That rehabilitation does not fit the current classifications for nursing specialties is also highlighted as a problem. This paper aims to expose rehabilitation nursing as a valid and valued specialty.

Experiences of Students in Pediatric Nursing Clinical Courses

ISSUES AND PURPOSE. Learning may be inhibited if students experience undue stress in the clinical setting. This study described the stresses, challenges, and emotions experienced by pediatric nursing students.
DESIGN AND METHODS. Students (n = 75) completed a modified Pagana Clinical Stress Questionnaire at the end of their pediatric nursing clinical course. The comparison group of students (n = 383) was enrolled in nonpediatric clinical courses in the same nursing programs. RESULTS. The most stressful aspect of clinical practice was giving medications to children. High stress scores were related to more fear and disappointment in clinical practice. Students who experienced high stress were less stimulated by their clinical activities and developed less confidence in practice. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS. Knowledge of students' perceptions of clinical stress can help educators and clinicians promote a positive and rewarding clinical atmosphere.     

Bringing pediatric nursing to life in a baccalaureate curriculum

Nurse educators are challenged to prepare nursing students to practice in a changing environment. Pediatrics is a particularly challenging and important area to prepare nursing students for future nursing practice. Several factors emerged that suggested the current approach to teaching pediatrics was not adequate. This article describes the revision of the baccalaureate curriculum to address concerns related to pediatric nursing concepts. These revisions include the integration of pediatric concepts into three major theory and clinical courses and the implementation of an elective designed for those students with a special interest in pediatrics. A popular preceptorship program for nursing students who want to complete their cumulative final clinical experience in pediatrics was also developed.
