Background

The New Careers in Nursing (NCIN) program provided scholarships and other supports to accelerated degree students at 130 nursing schools and collected data from the scholars at three time-points.

Purpose

The NCIN database was analyzed to identify gender-based differences in scholars' profile characteristics, program experiences, and post-graduation outcomes.

Method

An adaptation of Jeffreys's Nursing Universal Retention and Success Model guided the analysis. Gender differences were assessed after multiplicity adjustments for false positive rates.

Results

Differences based on gender were found for profile characteristics, student affective factors, academic factors, professional integration factors, environmental factors, as well as academic, psychological and NCIN program outcomes. Results suggest that males were influenced by economic factors more than females when choosing nursing as a career. They had fewer concerns about financial aspects associated with being a student again yet secured employment sooner after graduation than female scholars. They did not view support services as important as did female students. They expressed confidence in their leadership competence more than their female counterparts.

Conclusion

Efforts are needed to better understand and address the nuanced gender-based perceptions and needs of nursing students who are male.  相似文献

Background

With disasters occurring often, nurses must understand and ethically implement disaster management and patient care coordination. Yet these topics are often not discussed in nursing education curricula. Simulations are a potential solution to this ethical educational deficit, allowing students to act as professional nurses in a realistic scenario with minimal threat of harm to themselves or others.

Aim

This study investigates the effect of a high fidelity, multiple-casualty disaster simulation followed by a structured faculty-led debriefing session on perceived ethical reasoning confidence on senior Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students. Additionally, the effect of the intervention on students' perceived importance of ethical reasoning and perceptions of such skills was explored.

Methods

Students were provided with preparatory materials on the START (Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment) System and The Madison Collaborative's Ethical Reasoning in Action Eight Key Questions (8KQ) frameworks one week before the simulation exercise. In total, 90 students worked in pairs during the 15-minute disaster simulation. Participants' ethical reasoning attitudes were measured before and after the exercise, employing the Survey of Ethical Reasoning (SER) to indicate the importance of each of the 8KQ in students' ethical reasoning process using a five-point Likert scale. The SER was administered electronically using Qualtrics and statistical analysis was completed using SPSS. The 8KQ was also used in the debriefing led by faculty.

Results

Comparative assessment of pre and post-results demonstrate significant growth in students' ethical reasoning confidence scores (t(89)?=??6.609, p?<?0.001).

Conclusions

Simulations are shown to be effective educational approaches in developing ethical reasoning confidence and promoting the development of students' ethical preparedness.  相似文献

Background

Within nursing education research, protection of students as human subjects must be the highest priority. This protection can be provided via student anonymity. A subject-generated identification code, comprised of responses to a series of questions, can link data across time points while protecting student anonymity.

Method

Two studies, focused on palliative care education, used a subject-generated identification code to link student data across multiple time points. Refinements to the code were made between studies to further enhance anonymity and response consistency.

Results

The subject-generated identification code fostered linking of student responses across three time points in study one and two time points in study two.

Conclusion

There are many benefits to utilizing a subject-generated identification code in nursing education studies. Researchers must consider the need for a data management expert and balancing transposition errors and the power to differentiate between responses.  相似文献

Background

Standardized patient was useful for knowledge acquirement, communication skills, self-efficacy, learning motivation and clinical skill acquirement in the literature.

Aim

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of standardized patient and low-fidelity mannequin use in teaching hygiene care.

Methods

This study was conducted as a randomized controlled study. The study was conducted on first-year nursing students in a nursing school in Turkey. The study inclusion criteria were as follows: voluntary acceptance of study participation, and participation in theoretical lectures on hygiene education. Eighty students were recruited for the study population. The students were divided into two groups consisting of 40 students in each group. The intervention group performed the simulation using a standardized patient, and the control group performed the simulation using a low-fidelity mannequin. The same simulation scenarios were used for both groups.

Results

The hygiene care performance scores and students’ satisfaction and self-confidence scale and simulation design scale scores of the students in the standardized patient group were significantly higher than in the low-fidelity mannequin group. The students in the standardized patient group also showed less stress-related physical reactions in the actual environment and with an actual patient, experienced less difficulty during practice, felt more adequate, and better transferred the skills they had learned in the laboratory to clinical practice.

Conclusion

Simulation with standardized patient is an effective teaching method for improving outcomes hygiene care skills of nursing students.  相似文献

Background

Medication reconciliation is a complex process that occurs during hospitalization at admission, transfer and discharge and at each outpatient clinic visit. Despite numerous quality improvement initiatives implemented by healthcare facilities nationwide to refine the process, medication errors still occur. Medication reconciliation processes are institution specific and undergo constant refinement. Few reports are available on the nursing student's role in this contemporary safety process.

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to assess the nursing student's education and role in the medication reconciliation process from the perspective of academic faculty and hospital nursing leadership.

Methods

Electronic surveys were sent to 90 nurse academic and 160 nurse practice leaders in Ohio during the first quarter of 2015. Surveys were completed by 47% of the academic leaders (42/90) and 23% of the practice leaders (42/160). Survey questions focused on the nursing curriculum regarding medication reconciliation and the student nurse's role in the process during clinical experiences.

Results

Faculty from 75% of the schools of nursing reported that the medication reconciliation curriculum was mostly taught in the classroom. Only 24.4% of the schools taught medication reconciliation in an interdisciplinary context with pharmacy students. During clinical time, 33% of faculty reported that students had direct involvement and 33% had the opportunity to observe the process of medication reconciliation. The majority (80%) of practice nurse leaders reported that their facility does not permit nursing students to perform medication reconciliation. Although medication reconciliation processes are specific to each organization, only 52.8% of the practice leaders reported that they provide faculty or nursing students’ formal training on their hospital's medication reconciliation policy or site-specific process.

Conclusion

Students are not receiving adequate education or opportunity to practice medication reconciliation during clinicals. Future alignment of academia, and practice efforts on medication reconciliation are needed.  相似文献

Background

Eight out of ten Americans report they experience job stress. Nurses (74%) are reporting acute and chronic stress as a contributing factor to nurse burnout. Stress can be the result of organizational, interpersonal or individual/personal factors and could eventually lead to burnout if ignored. It has long been reported about the shortage of nursing faculty but very little about how current nurse faculty experience burnout. Faculty burnout can be due to a variety of reasons (e.g., employment requirements, working in understaffed environment, lack of support).

Problem

Although stress at work has become common nurses may avoid acknowledging stress. Nurse faculty have not received as much attention related to chronic stress and burnout or recognize personal chronic stress potentially leading to burnout.

Approach

This paper discusses how to recognize the chronic stress that may lead to nurse faculty burnout, provides a case study for reflection and learning, and offers strategies to reduce and avoid burnout.

Conclusion

Nurse faculty may gain greater understanding of stressors leading to burnout, determine if they are experiencing symptoms of burnout and apply strategies to reduce or prevent burnout. Burnout, Nurse Faculty, Chronic Stress, Work/Life Balance.  相似文献

Background

Entrance requirements for undergraduate nursing programs have been under government scrutiny in recent times. To date, no Australia studies have reported nurse academics’ perspectives of entry requirements for Bachelor of Nursing programs.

Study aim

The aim of this study is to examine nursing academics’ perceptions of entry requirements for Australian Bachelor of Nursing Programs.

Methods

A total of 223 nurse academics responded to questions in an online national survey on pre-requisite subject areas, minimum tertiary entrance scores, English proficiency, and inherent requirements for clinical practice.

Findings

English, Maths and Science were seen as important pre-requisite subject areas for students commencing a Bachelor of Nursing Program. Nurse academics believed that increasing the tertiary entrance score and English proficiency, was necessary to increase entrance standards and that a minimum score be consistently applied across universities. There were mixed views as to the disclosure of inherent requirements by students.

Conclusion

Nationally, dialogue needs to occur about how universities can apply a consistent approach to ensure that the necessary foundation skills, knowledge and abilities are in place prior to admission into programs.  相似文献

Background

Stigmatization and bias toward the obese population has been studied globally in a variety of professional groups, supporting the existence of negative attitudes and weight bias against this population. Attitudes fostering the prevalence of stigmatization undermine the effectiveness and quality of health care. Studies have not compared attitudes and beliefs of graduate and undergraduate students from professional schools within the same university. As an exemplar, this study compared nursing students' attitudes and beliefs toward obese individuals with students' attitudes in other professional schools.

Methods

The Attitudes Toward Obese Persons and Beliefs About Obese Persons scales were administered to undergraduate and graduate nursing students and graduate education and social work students at a US northeastern university.

Results

Analyses indicated students who were younger; in nursing programs; and reported not having a friend or family member who is overweight had significantly worse attitudes than others. Gender, location of residence, perceptions of own body weight, and participating in an exercise regimen were not significant.

Conclusion

Understanding attitudes toward obese people may guide educators as they train nursing, education, and social work students. Reducing negative attitudes, beliefs, and stigmatization is an important starting point in the battle against this growing public health concern.  相似文献

Background

Building on the efforts of the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, we developed a model to infuse data science constructs into doctor of philosophy (PhD) curriculum. Using this model, developing nurse scientists can learn data science and be at the forefront of data driven healthcare.

Purpose

Here we present the Data Science Curriculum Organizing Model (DSCOM) to guide comprehensive doctoral education about data science.

Methods

Our team transformed the terminology and applicability of multidisciplinary data science models into the DSCOM.

Findings

The DSCOM represents concepts and constructs, and their relationships, which are essential to a comprehensive understanding of data science. Application of the DSCOM identified areas for threading as well as gaps that require content in core coursework.

Discussion

The DSCOM is an effective tool to guide curriculum development and evaluation towards the preparation of nurse scientists with knowledge of data science.  相似文献

Objective

To evaluate the effect of implementing hourly rounds on a mother–baby unit (MBU) on the perception of care by women admitted to the hospital for birth or with pregnancy complications.

Design

Retrospective, quantitative, before–after study.

Setting/Local Problem

The MBU of a large metropolitan hospital in the northeastern United States was the setting. With considerable resources allocated to hourly rounding implementation, there was a need to examine whether hourly rounds influenced the perception of communication with nurses by women admitted to the hospital for prenatal care and women's likelihood to recommend the hospital.

Participants

Women ages 18 years and older discharged from the MBU.

Intervention/Measurements

Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Services (HCAHPS) survey responses collected from women at discharge, before and after hourly rounds implementation on the MBU, were compared. Aggregate data were retrieved from Press Ganey reports.

Results

No significant change in women’s perceptions of nursing care and communication was found when comparing pre- and postintervention samples.

Conclusion

Although we found no statistically significant change in perception of care, we have identified opportunities for future research. More research is need to explore what approaches for hourly rounds implementation and sustainability are most effective. Additionally, there is a need to study whether vital aspects of care identified by pregnant women admitted to the hospital are similar or different compared with other populations.  相似文献

Objective

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between spirituality and health status outcome in nursing home (PSTW Khusnul Khotimah) in Pekanbaru, Riau-Indonesia.

Method

This study methods was a cross-sectional study with 36 elderly people as samples and it was taken by total sampling technique. JAREL Spiritual Well-Being Scale was used to assess elderly people spirituality level. Univariate and bivariate use non-parametric analysis were performed to determine the relationship between elderly people spirituality and self-reported health status.

Results

Majority marital status of respondent (85.8%) were divorce with their couple. Seventy two point two percent elderly health status was not good and 52.8% (the results spiritual statement of indicates: When I was sick, I reduced spiritual welfare 33.3%, I cannot accept changes in my life 27.8%) of them have less spirituality. This study also found that the elderly people who has low spirituality level more likely have health problems. There was significant correlation between spirituality and elderly health status in nursing home (p = 0.035).

Conclusion

It was important to increase the elderly people spirituality to prevent health status degradation in elderly people in nursing home.  相似文献

Introduction

Transgender and gender non-conforming (TGNC) people in the United States face disproportionate rates of mental health disorders, including suicidality, depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders than the general population. Patients' experiences utilizing mental healthcare is a determinant in their care-seeking behaviors and treatment success.

Aim/question

The purpose of this integrative review is to better understand the firsthand mental healthcare experiences of TGNC persons.

Method

The authors sought to locate recent English-language articles that described the mental healthcare experiences of TGNC persons. To do so, only articles that conducted data collection with a TGNC sample were considered for review.

Results

Seven articles met criteria for review. Four themes emerged that depicted experiences of health promotion (welcoming environments, staff knowledge and response) and health prevention (enacted stigma, racial disparities and intersectional insensitivity).

Discussion

Themes indicated that TGNC persons have mixed experiences (excellent to harmful/damaging) when receiving mental healthcare. There is room for healthcare provider growth in skills to increase TGNC cultural competency.

Implications for practice

Mental healthcare providers and nurses would benefit from interventions to promote TGNC culturally competent care, including in-service training or continuing education for the current work force as well as incorporating TGNC content into pre-licensure educational curricula.  相似文献

Introduction

The Ratu's Model is a nursing model to prevent postpartum depression, is a product of Ratu's dissertation. Depression is one of the common psychological problem experienced by postpartum women. The number is estimated to reach 20% in Indonesia, 15–20% in the Riau Province, and must to be pressed to 1%.

Objectives

This study aims to identify the effectiveness of Ratu's Model to prevent postpartum depression.

Method

Quasi-experiment research alongside with pre–post test analysis of the control group, number of the respondents was undergone among 54 women pregnant and the spouses in each intervention and control group. Educational intervention was given toward intervention group for 3 times, with 3 times monitoring, and 3 times measurement.

Result

A significant correlation between Ratu's Model with lowered postpartum depression incidence.

Conclusion

The Ratu's Model is effective lowering the incidence of postpartum depression.  相似文献

Background

Nurse scientists are highly sought after and find satisfaction in serving as members of interdisciplinary research teams. These teams also tend to be highly productive. However, nurse scientists in academia also have to reach certain productivity milestones to be promoted and receive tenure that may be incongruent with team science principles.

Purpose

This study therefore sought to examine whether APT documents in research intensive nursing schools incorporate team science principles.

Methods

Qualitatively analyzed the appointment, promotion and tenure documents of 18 U.S. based research intensive schools of nursing with over $2 million in NIH funding in fiscal year 2014.

Findings

The study found that only 8 of 18 documents included any reference to team science principles and even these mentions were largely negligible. There were few best practices to recommend across documents. By not recognizing team science within these documents, nursing risks marginalization within the larger scientific community by limiting mentorship and learning opportunities for early career nurse scientists.

Discussion

Schools of nursing should revisit their promotion and tenure criteria and include a greater commitment to encouragement of team science.  相似文献

Background

There is limited information about the careers, roles and views of doctor of nursing practice (DNP) graduates.

Method

This study describes the labor participation, post-graduation work activities, and perceptions of 1,308 DNP members of three professional nursing organizations who completed a 2017 survey (32% response rate).

Findings

More than 70% of respondents reported substantial improvements in quality improvement, evidenced based practice and leadership abilities. Twenty-two percent of respondents noted the degree was required by their employer and most of these held educational positions. Postgraduate participation in activities associated with DNP education, assessment of personal impact and degree necessity varied by position title and organization membership.

Discussion

These differences have implications for nursing associations and professional solidarity.  相似文献

Background

An understanding of determinants of health is critical for nurses to be able to develop effective care plans for their patients; however little work has been published which evaluates learning opportunities for students around the determinants of health.

Aim

To gain an understanding of students’ experiences of a newly designed assessment task which focused on the determinants of health—a photo-essay.

Methods

A mixed methods approach was adopted. Students undertaking the course were asked to complete a reflective thinking questionnaire both pre- and post- course. Data from individual students was matched and differences in responses to the questionnaire determined. Students were also asked to briefly describe their impressions of the photo-essay assessment task. A thematic analysis of the students’ impressions of the photo-essay task was completed.

Results

An analysis of pre- and post- course questionnaire results identified that there were statistically significant differences regarding the constructs (or proxies) for the levels of students’ understanding and critical reflection. A thematic analysis of the students’ impressions of the photo-essay assessment task indicated four main themes — the challenge, the enjoyment, learning, and the connection of theory to their local environment.

Discussion

Findings indicate that this assessment task provided opportunity for students to learn about the determinants of health. Benefits to students included the changes in the constructs for levels of understanding and critical reflection. These changes aligned with the themes identified in students’ free text comments.

Conclusions

Based on this project, it is concluded that photo-essays may be an innovative assessment approach of the determinants of health which may be used in nursing education to enhance understanding and critical reflection.  相似文献

Background

Effective coordination and integration of care between health care providers is critical to manage complex, chronic medical conditions.

Aim

Describe the advanced practice profile and activities of nurse navigators who provide a service for patients with chronic health conditions.

Design

An observational study was conducted in four health services, in Queensland, Australia.

Methods

In part one, nurse navigators completed a survey incorporating the Advanced Practice Role Delineation tool. In part two, nurse navigators completed a work activity diary, capturing the time spent performing daily activities, modes of communication and referral sources.

Findings

Twenty-three and 18 nurse navigators participated in the survey and diary, respectively. Participants were experienced nurses, working full-time. Participants reported spending a great extent of time performing direct comprehensive care, support of systems and education in surveys. The diaries captured a mean of 20 working days per participant, a total of 5,748 work activities. including care of 615 patients. The majority of nurse navigator activities were performed within the direct comprehensive care domain. Communication predominantly occurred with patients, families, hospital health professionals either in person, at a healthcare facility or via phone.

Discussion

Our research identified three focus areas of nurse navigator activities: direct comprehensive care, support of systems and education. Further work is required to extend the nurse navigators’ unique contribution to research and publication and professional leadership.

Conclusions

This study established baseline knowledge regarding advanced practice profiles and work activities of nurse navigators, which can be utilised to improve current processes and future enhancement of the role.  相似文献
