Are adolescents/young people and their families getting the best service when being cared for by young adolescent student nurses?

The purpose of this presentation is to highlight issues that exist for student nurses who embark on a career in children's nursing at a very young age and subsequently find themselves in a situation where they are expected to deliver high quality care to young people and their families. An introductory sentence indicating the purpose of the presentation: Currently in the UK under the Making a Différence Curriculum (DOH 1999) students can enrol on a single registration programme for Children's Nursing as young as 17.5 years. Children are admitted to hospital onto the children's wards between the ages of 0-16 years (occasionally older). Using Viner's (2003) définition of adolescence as being that period between the ages of ten and twenty-five years when biopsychosocial maturation leads to functional independence in adult iife demonstrates the possibility that both the patients and the nursing students could be undergoing very similar transitional experiences. Historically, in the 1940-50's children were admitted to childrens wards between the ages of 2-12 years. Nurse education at that time tended to be undertaken for first or second level registration in the first instance, followed by post-registration training for specialist areas. Subsequently, the phenomenon of adolescent paediatric nursing students being required to care for adolescents and their families on the children's wards did not exist some 60 years ago. A brief description of the highiights of the présentation: This présentation will focus on adolescent transitions with particular reference to issues that could arise when young students are required to care for young people and their families, particularly when there is a diagnosis of self harm or substance abuse. A summary of findings and/or other relevant information: Preliminary findings have indicated that very young student nurses find caring for adolescents to be particularly challenging. Health issues pertinent to young people appear to présent particular challenges for the students which raises questions in respect of the quality of care that the young people and their families may receive. A conclusion and implications: The following need to be further explored: i) Support within the clinical areas and adequate de-briefing strategies, ii) The efficacy of single registration to children's nursing, iii) Young people and their family's perception of the quality of care they receive from very young students.

Perspective d'étudiantes infirmières de leur environnement d'apprentissage de la pratique en contexte de diversité culturelle lors d'une immersion clinique à l'international

Il existe une grande diversité dans les programmes de formation en sciences infirmières concernant l’organisation de stages d’immersion clinique à l’international et le soutien offert aux étudiantes (Kokko, 2011). Cette étude de cas qualitative explore, selon la perspective d’étudiantes infirmières, les éléments de l’environnement d’apprentissage de la pratique en contexte de diversité culturelle dans le cadre d’une immersion clinique à l’international. Le modèle constructiviste de développement de la compétence culturelle de Blanchet Garneau (2013 ; Blanchet Garneau et Pepin, 2015a) a servi de cadre de référence à cette étude. Dix étudiantes ayant participé à l’immersion clinique ont pris part à une entrevue individuelle en profondeur. Suite à une analyse qualitative thématique des données inspirée de Miles, Huberman et Saldana (2014), trois thèmes inter reliés ressortent : accompagnement par de multiples collaborations, trouver sa place dans le milieu d’accueil et écart entre les attentes des étudiantes et l’expérience vécue. Ces thèmes permettent de comprendre l’environnement d’apprentissage des étudiantes dans le développement de leur compétence culturelle, notamment leur capacité de s’ouvrir aux différentes réalités en contexte de diversité culturelle. Puisque peu d’écrits abordent spécifiquement les éléments de l’environnement d’apprentissage liés à la capacité de s’ouvrir aux différentes réalités de la pratique en contexte de diversité culturelle à l’étranger, cette étude contribue à l’approfondissement des éléments de l’environnement d’apprentissage présenté dans le modèle de Blanchet Garneau (2013 ; Blanchet Garneau et Pepin, 2015) et constitue un ajout aux connaissances actuelles liées au développement de la compétence culturelle.

An interprofessional approach to improving paediatric medication safety

Safe drug prescribing and administration are essential elements within undergraduate healthcare curricula, but medication errors, especially in paediatric practice, continue to compromise patient safety. In this area of clinical care, collective responsibility, team working and communication between health professionals have been identified as key elements in safe clinical practice. To date, there is limited research evidence as to how best to deliver teaching and learning of these competencies to practitioners of the future.An interprofessional workshop to facilitate learning of knowledge, core competencies, communication and team working skills in paediatric drug prescribing and administration at undergraduate level was developed and evaluated. The practical, ward-based workshop was delivered to 4th year medical and 3rd year nursing students and evaluated using a pre and post workshop questionnaire with open-ended response questions.Following the workshop, students reported an increase in their knowledge and awareness of paediatric medication safety and the causes of medication errors (p < 0.001), with the greatest increase noted among medical students. Highly significant changes in students' attitudes to shared learning were observed, indicating that safe medication practice is learnt more effectively with students from other healthcare disciplines. Qualitative data revealed that students' participation in the workshop improved communication and teamworking skills, and led to greater awareness of the role of other healthcare professionals.This study has helped bridge the knowledge-skills gap, demonstrating how an interprofessional approach to drug prescribing and administration has the potential to improve quality and safety within healthcare.

Sjuksköterskestudenters upplevelse av att hantera akuta patientsituationer : En empirisk studie

Introduktion: Sjuksköterskor förväntas ha god kunskap för att kunna hantera akuta patientsituationer. Sjuksköterskor har ett stort ansvarsområde inom sin profession och ska hantera både patienter samt anhöriga trots en akut situation. Syfte: Studiens syfte var att belysa sjuksköterskestudenters upplevelse av förberedelse inför akuta patientsituationer. Metod: En kvalitativ forskningsansats användes i studien och all data samlades in genom semistrukturerade intervjuer. Deltagarna i studien valdes ut genom ett bekvämlighetsurval och totalt deltog 16 stycken sjuksköterskestudenter som studerade sista terminen av sjuksköterskeutbildningen. Data analyserades sedan genom en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Resultatet bestod av två huvudkategorier. Den första; En känsla av otillräcklighet som innefattade två underkategorier; En övermäktig ansvarsroll och Rädslan för att göra fel. Den andra huvudkategorin; En känsla av trygghet innefattade fyra underkategorier; Att utvecklas genom erfarenhet, Att kunna hantera en akut patientsituation, Vikten av att vara ett team och Att stärkas genom reflektion. Deltagarna upplevde sig vara oförberedda inför att hantera akuta patientsituationer men såg också fram emot utmaningen relaterat till att det blir spännande och lärorikt. Resultatet påvisade att sjuksköterskestudenter som studerade sista terminen behövde mer förberedelse inom akutsjukvård. Slutsats: Studien påvisade att det finns ett ökat behov av förberedelse inom akuta patientsituationer hos sjuksköterskestudenter. Deltagarna beskrev sjuksköterskerollen som övermäktig och behövde en ökad trygghet inom yrket relaterat till att det kunde leda till en högre vårdkvalitet i akuta patientsituationer.

Sjuksköterskestudenters upplevelse av förberedelse inför hjärtstopp : En empirisk studie

Introduktion: Årligen drabbas cirka 15 000 personer av hjärtstopp i Sverige. Sjuksköterskanhar ett stort i ansvar i omvårdnaden vid hjärtstopp. Sjuksköterskeutbildningen strävar efter attförbereda studenterna inför omvårdnad vid hjärtstopp. Syfte: Att belysasjuksköterskestudenters upplevelse av förberedelse inför att utöva omvårdnad av patienter samband med hjärtstopp. Metod: Kvalitativ design med semistrukturerade intervjuer. Undersökningsgruppen bestämdes av bekvämlighetsurval. 16 sjuksköterskestudenter i termin 6 intervjuades och data analyserades med hjälp av innehållsanalys. Resultat: Resultatet avstudien visade på att informanterna kände en otrygghet i sig själva, och var osäkra inför attutföra hjärt- och lungräddning för första gången på grund av bristande erfarenhet samt för litekunskap. Informanterna upplevde dock trygghet när de hade erfarna kollegor runt omkring sigsamt när de hade upplevt en riktig hjärtstoppssituation själva. Slutsats: Utifrån studiens resultatbedöms att sjuksköterskestudenter inte känner sig trygga i sig själva och i sin förmåga att utföraadekvat S-HLR, samt inte upplever sig vara förberedda inför att hantera en hjärtstoppssituation.

Les Perceptions des Étudiants en Soins Infirmiers Pédiatriques en Milieu Communautaire

Over the last decade health care delivery has shifted from hospitals to the community resulting in a significant reduction of hospital-based clinical placements for nursing students to practice and learn. Studies have emerged describing this problem and outlining the ways in which Colleges and Universities have attempted to deal with the acute shortage of clinical areas in nursing and other health care programs. Several studies describe the development of community-based clinical experiences, and some of these examined students’ perceptions. One finding appears to be constant: student perceptions of community experiences have an effect on their learning outcomes. There is an increasing need to teach nursing students in community settings both to contend with the shortage of hospital-based placements and to prepare students for future practice. Pediatric hospitals are no longer able to provide as many clinical placements as they once did. This has created a problem for college nursing departments. Over the past five years, John Abbott College’s pediatric nursing teachers have attempted to deal with this problem in numerous ways; however, students and faculty were dissatisfied with the solutions as there was a lack of development of the pediatric community clinical component. The purpose of this study is to explore nursing students’ perceptions of pediatric community experiences both prior to the start of the clinical rotation and following the experience. Student perceptions of nursing in community settings are an important element in the level of student satisfaction and ultimately their learning in pediatric clinical settings. In order to explore the John Abbott College’s nursing students’ perceptions, data was collected from a small segment of the population. Students’ perceptions were explored quantitatively through the use of questionnaires using a Likert scale administered both prior to the clinical experience and following the experience; and qualitatively, using content analysis of reflective journals and focus group discussions. The results of the study demonstrated that prior to the community rotations; students did not know what the experience would involve. They felt apprehensive due to being inadequately prepared for the experience and questioned the actual learning they would acquire from a community setting. Following the pediatric community experience, students perceived benefits to their learning particularly in the development of their abilities to communicate with children, and to recognize and apply principles of growth and development to children of different age groups and with different health needs. In addition, students perceived an increase in their self- confidence when teaching children. They also developed an appreciation of the role of the nurse in health promotion for individuals’ in community settings. Furthermore, students described an increase in their awareness of resources that are available in the community. Overall, students were satisfied with their pediatric community clinical experience. The results of this study indicate that adequate student preparation is required prior to the community clinical experience. This preparation would include a clear description of the clinical objectives and associated learning activities, as well as an explicit explanation of the evaluation process. Finally, it is recommended that the pediatric nursing teachers continue to search for community clinical areas that can enhance student learning in pediatrics. This study contributes to the literature on community experiences for nursing students since it explored students’ perceptions before and after the community clinical rotation.

Teaching psychology to student nurses: the use of ‘Talking Head’ videos

Psychology is a central part of undergraduate nursing curricula in the UK. However, student nurses report difficulties recognising the relevance and value of psychology. We sought to strengthen first-year student nurses’ application of psychology by developing a set of digital stories based around ‘Talking Head’ video clips where authentic patients relate their experiences of illness and nursing care. The aim of this article is to discuss the technological, organisational and pedagogical challenges, student and staff evaluations and our recommendations for the future of Talking Heads. First-year student nurses were shown a video clip of a patient talking about their illness experiences followed by a group learning situation linking main themes to psychology and nursing. Students and staff valued the authenticity of patient's narrative, found the video clip easy to follow, reported a raised awareness of psychological concepts and improved empathetic understanding of chronic illness. Negative evaluations were related to a sanitised, untypical representation and limited internet access. This small-scale study highlighted how patient narrative may enhance students understanding of illness experience. It chronicles the development and evaluation of a Talking Head in a specific context but which may be useful across disciplines.
