Project description:In South Korea, in 2019, approximately 45.5% of newly-graduated nurses quit their jobs within one year of employment. To better understand the adjustment to nursing practice upon graduation, we developed an online communication skills training program based on nonviolent communication and evaluated its effectiveness. A quasi-experimental design was adopted. The sample included 28 participants in the experimental group and 27 in the control group after one participant in the control group dropped out. The participants were fourth-year nursing students at the K and S University in Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, with some clinical training in a hospital setting. Data were analyzed using the χ2 test, Fisher's exact test, and independent t-test. Participants' empathy, communication skills, anger, and self-efficacy were assessed before and after the training, as well as across the two groups. The experimental group showed significantly higher levels of empathy, communication skills, and self-efficacy compared to the control group after the program completion. However, there were no significant differences in anger. This study suggests the effectiveness of the online version of the nonviolent communication training. Therefore, providing this program to nursing students scheduled for graduation may help retain newly-graduated nurses.

Project description:BackgroundNursing students engage with the complex health system for competence development. These students are exposed to nerve-wrecking experience in addition to their everyday personal and social challenges. Non-cognitive attributes, namely grit, resilience and mindset can influence students' ability to overcome complexities as they become nurses resulting in academic success and well-being. Insights into the state of non-cognitive attributes among undergraduate nursing students are essential in developing tailor-made educational programmes to enhance their grit, resilience, and mindset.ObjectivesTo describe the undergraduate nursing students' grit, academic resilience, and mindset at a university in South Africa.DesignA quantitative descriptive cross-sectional design.SettingA School of Nursing at a public multi-campus university in South Africa.ParticipantsAll students (N = 315) registered for the undergraduate nursing programme were invited to participate, and 70 % (N = 221) chose to participate.MethodsData were collected using self-administered questionnaires that included a 7-item demographic survey, the 30-item Academic Resilience Scale (ARS-30) that measures affective, cognitive, and behavioural responses in an educational context, the 16-item Dweck Mindset Scale (DMI) that measures a personal belief about whether intelligence and talent are fixed or amenable to change, and the 8-item Grit-S scale measuring passion for long term goals and perseverance. The collected quantitative data were analysed statistically through the Statistical Analysis Software Version 9.4 computer programme.FindingsThe findings revealed that the participants have normal grit and a growth mindset, but low academic resilience.ConclusionsTailor-made educational programmes that target non-cognitive attributes must integrate interventions that are focused on enhancing academic resilience for undergraduate nursing students.

Project description:IntroductionRecognizing the need for interprofessional education for trainees, the University of Kansas Schools of Nursing (SON) and Medicine (SOM) created interprofessional procedure workshops to foster collaboration, communication, and learning with and from other disciplines. The first workshop focused on venipuncture and peripheral intravenous catheter (PIV) insertion.MethodsAn interprofessional work group including SON and SOM faculty developed a PIV procedure training workshop based on the "learn, see, practice, prove, do, maintain" framework. SON faculty and graduate nursing students provided support and mentoring during the training sessions. Nursing students acted as peer coaches for their medical student colleagues with the help of an evidence-based, standardized, deliberate practice guide. The document broke the procedure into phases-planning, preparation, insertion, and postinsertion care-and provided scaffolding for the beginner through assessment.ResultsOn survey, most students felt the program was beneficial and met the learning objectives. After the sessions, medical students completed a PIV assessment, and nursing students completed a reflection on the experience. These postsession assignments for each group confirmed that the learning objectives had been met.DiscussionThe interprofessional PIV workshop was one module in a longitudinal interprofessional curriculum providing training for SON and SOM learners. One goal of this curriculum was to achieve higher graduate competencies in procedural skills and interprofessional practice. Additionally, in developing the workshop, a deliberate practice guide was created that provided an educationally sound and best-practice procedure to be standardized to all university learners on campus.

Project description:BackgroundDuring education it is essential for nursing students to develop professionalism in nursing. Nurses are placed in situations based on trust, and it is crucial that their patients have confidence in them to provide professional and safe care. A key period in nursing students' development of a professionalism occurs during training when students gain knowledge and skills that separate nurses as professional healthcare workers from laypeople. The purpose of this study was to investigate nursing students' experiences of professional competence development during education.MethodsA longitudinal study was carried out using qualitative content analysis with a manifest inductive approach. Thirty-four students enrolled in a Swedish three-year nursing program, from August 2015 to January 2017 were interviewed on four occasions.ResultsThe results revealed that students' professional role developed gradually. The students' started their education with dreams and a naive understanding of the profession, but their understanding of the complexity of the nursing profession gradually evolved. Students became theoretically equipped at the university and developed clinical skills through practice. Students' focus went from mastering medical technology to a more holistic approach. Before graduating, students felt ready but not fully trained.ConclusionsOur findings indicate a discrepancy between the content of the theoretical education and the clinical settings since students identified a lack of evidence-based practice. A solid theoretical education before entering clinical training offered students possibilities for reflecting on evidence-based practice and the clinical settings. The realization that there is always potential for professional improvement can be interpreted as an emerging awareness, and development of professionalism. It is clear that students could benefit from increased collaborative work between clinical supervisors and faculty staff at the university.

Project description:BackgroundNursing students' internship experiences may significantly impact their caring ability. However, there is a lack of comprehensive evaluation of undergraduate nursing students' caring ability pre-and post-internship in China. This study aimed to explore the differences in the caring ability of undergraduate nursing students before and after internship.MethodsThe sample comprised 305 undergraduate nursing students who had undergone internships during 2018-2020 in three hospitals in Changsha, China. Caring Ability Inventory was used to measure and compare nursing students' caring ability before and after internship. Descriptive statistics and paired t-test were employed to analyze data in SPSS software (version 22.0).ResultsA total of 300 students completed the survey (response rate = 98.37%). The overall score of caring ability and scores of cognitive and patience dimensions were higher after internship than before internship (P < 0.05). There was no significant improvement in the courage dimension (P > 0.05).ConclusionsCaring ability of undergraduate nursing students in China was at a low level, their overall caring ability significantly improved after the internship, indicating a positive relationship between internship and caring ability. Nursing educators and clinical nurses should emphasize the importance of caring ability development in internship planning and encourage nursing students to engage more with patients.

Project description:IntroductionThe concept of medical student coachability, adapted from athletics and business management, offers a framework for characterizing students' roles as clinical learners. We defined coachability as effectively seeking, receiving, and using feedback-even negative feedback-to change behavior and reach learning goals. To facilitate success in our clinical clerkships, we sought to empower preclerkship students' capacity to be coached.MethodsOur curriculum comprised two large-group presentations and three small-group seminars totaling approximately 5 hours, distributed over 2 years: a year 1 orientation, a year 2 refresher, and a longitudinal year 2 seminar series. Medical students designed and first implemented the curriculum under faculty supervision in academic year (AY) 2015-2016 and have continuously managed and run it since. The AY 2022-2023 curriculum management team evaluated the curriculum cross-sectionally via student survey and focus groups.ResultsApproximately 575 students have completed the curriculum since 2015. Immediately following curriculum delivery, AY 2022-2023 year 2 students (response rate: 70%-97%) rated it a valuable educational experience and described plans to implement the lessons learned in their clerkship. Focus group participants (eight clerkship students who participated in the coachability curriculum in AY 2021-2022) reported using coachability strategies to positive effect for their clinical learning and well-being.DiscussionOur curriculum's flexible, modular format facilitates adoption by others. Future development could expand coachability offerings across the continuum of medical school. However, the curriculum should remain led by students passionate about medical education and willing to try new things to continuously adapt content and instructional strategies.

Project description:Background Unresolved sexual issues can have an impact on a person’s wellbeing, social interactions, or even medication compliance. Given the enormous global demand to enhance and preserve sexual health, faculty members have a specific goal of developing nursing workforce who are truly prepared to work with clients who have sexual health issues. Hence, the study’s purpose has been to evaluate the current state of attitude and belief of nursing students toward sexual healthcare and the factors that influence it in Southwest Ethiopia. Methods An online cross-sectional survey was conducted in Mizan-Tepi University involving 134 undergraduate nursing students from February 1 to March 10, 2022. The Sexual Attitude and Beliefs Scale (SABS) were used to assess the level of attitudes and beliefs regarding sexual care. Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) Version 26 was employed for data analysis. Multivariable linear regression analyses was conducted to identify predictors of attitudes and beliefs regarding sexual healthcare. The significance level was set at p<0.05. Results The mean age of the nursing students participating in this study was 28.47±5.2. In our study, mean SABS score of the nursing students was found as 42.3 ± 2.1. The mean score of the SABS items ranged from 1.68±0.93 to 4.37±1.48. Having receiving sexual health education (p<0.001) was significantly associated with attitude and beliefs regarding sexual healthcare. Conclusions Ethiopian nursing students have been found to have a negative attitude and beliefs about sexual health care. Because comprehensive sex education is sorely lacking in nursing schools, this scrutiny prevents student nurses from receiving an adequate education. As there is a lack of appropriate sexual health subject matter, it is critical to standardize sexual health education in nursing programs so that nursing students can learn to provide comprehensive care to clients.
