The professional subcultures of students entering medicine,nursing and pharmacy programmes

This study sought to determine the attitudes, beliefs and values towards clinical work organization of students entering undergraduate medicine, nursing and pharmacy programmes in order to frame questions for a wider study. In the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, The University of Auckland students entering medicine, nursing and pharmacy programmes completed a questionnaire based on that used by Degeling et al. in studies of the professional subcultures working in the health system in Australia, New Zealand, England and elsewhere. Findings indicate that before students commence their education and training medical, nursing and pharmacy students as groups or sub-cultures differ in how they believe clinical work should be organized. Medical students believe that clinical work should be the responsibility of individuals in contrast to nursing students who have a collective view and believe that work should be systemized. Pharmacy students are at a mid-point in this continuum. There are many challenges for undergraduate programmes preparing graduates for modern healthcare practice where the emphasis is on systemized work and team based approaches. These include issues of professional socialization which begins before students enter programmes, selection of students, attitudinal shifts and interprofessional education.     

Complementary therapy use by nursing, pharmacy and biomedical science students

Abstract Attitudes towards the use of complementary therapies by students of undergraduate Bachelor of Nursing, Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences were determined using a self-administered questionnaire. Overall, 78% of students had used a complementary therapy in the past year and 56% had visited a complementary therapy practitioner. The therapies most used were those involving vitamins, mineral and other supplements. Practitioners specializing in this area were the most visited, followed by chiropractors. Commonly used products included vitamin C, multivitamins, B group vitamins, garlic, iron and echinacea. Most students thought complementary therapies improved quality of life, with friends and family providing the main sources of information. There were few differences attributable to course or gender. The results suggest that these students have favorable attitudes towards complementary therapies and that many choose to use them as part of normal health care.

Perceptions of nursing students on men entering nursing as a career.

The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of nursing students who were enrolled in an under-graduate nursing programme in a rural university, on men entering nursing as a career.

Values of entering nursing students: changes over 10 years

Values of students entering nursing in 1982 were compared with values of those entering in 1972. The Allport-Vernon-Lindzey Study of Values and an Entering Resources inventory were completed by 309 students in 1972 and 161 students in 1982. The 1982 sample scored higher on economic values (p less than .01), but did not differ on the other values. Both groups scored highest on social values with religious values ranking second in 1982 and third in 1972. These findings contrast to studies in the 1960's which found religious values rated highest and economic values rated lowest.     

中医本科护生专业价值观的调查及影响因素分析

目的了解中医本科护生专业价值观现状并分析其影响因素,为高等护理教育机构培养护生专业价值观提供参考。方法采用护理专业价值观量表（NPVS—R）对223名中医本科护生进行现场调查。结果中医本科护生专业价值观总均分为（83．90±13．93）;4个维度中信任维度得分指标最高（69．5％）,行动主义得分指标最低（61．6％）;根据每个条目的得分排序,排在前5位的条目是：维护患者的隐私权、保持患者对医护人员的信任、为自己的护理实践行为承担责任和义务、拒绝参与违背自己专业价值观伦理要求的护理工作、维护患者的道德尊严和法定权利。不同年级护理专业价值观总均分无明显差别,但在照顾提供维度,二年级护生得分高于三年级护生,差别有统计学意义（P=0．014）;学习成绩自我评价不同的护生护理专业价值观认同度有明显不同,差别有统计学意义（F=2．452,P=0．035）。LSD两两分析结果显示：自我评价成绩好的护生专业价值观总均分低于自我评价成绩较好（P=0．008）或一般（P=0．006）的护生,且4个维度得分均低于自我评价成绩较好或一般的护生。结论中医本科护生专业价值观总体水平有待进一步提高,特别是“行动主义”维度认同度较低。与在职护士相比,护生更加注重维护病人的尊严和权利,而对于不断更新知识与技能的认知度不高。护理教育者应该更加关注成绩相对较好以及高年级特别是进入临床实习期护生专业价值观的培养与巩固。
