'n Model vir die bemagtiging van die verpleegonderwysstudent as reflektiewe leerbegeleier in die verpleegonderwys

Kotzé, Tersia 30 August 2012 (has links)
M.Cur. / The purpose of this research is to describe a model as framework for the nursing lecturer to utilize in the empowerment of the nursing education student as a reflective learning accompanist in nursing education. Because of the rapid changing political situation in the Republic of South Africa, unprecedented changes are occurring in education and health services. A greater degree of multi-cultural student numbers is experienced in classrooms at tertiary education institutions. Because of the increased accessibility to health services, these specific services are overcrowded by clients/patients. The overcrowding results in a shortage of trained nursing staff. More nursing students register at tertiary institutions, leading to a greater need for nursing education lecturers. These two aspects were identified as the most important causes of this specific research study in nursing education. It is assumed that the nursing lecturer, as reflective learning accompanist, empowers nursing education students to facilitate reflective thinking in their nursing students, by means of reflective learning accompaniment. This serves to improve nursing education, as well as the maintenance and improvement of nursing within a context of an increased need for health services. By means of more efficient education in the development of nursing education students, as reflective learning accompanists in nursing education, the increased demand for more comprehensive and more efficient health care services is addressed. In order to facilitate reflective thinking, the nursing lecturer must empower the developing nursing education student by means of reflective learning accompaniment in order to facilitate reflective thinking.

Exploration of Nurses' Experiences Transitioning to a Team-Nursing Model of Care

Pestill, Melissa E. 01 January 2017 (has links)
In response to the needs of patients, coupled with nursing workforce predictions and the pressure of cost containment, a shift to a new team nursing model of care has been seen in Canada and Australia. Today's patients require multiple resources, nurses with additional skillsets and vast amounts of experience during their hospital stays, and a team of nurses can meet these needs. This project explored the experiences and perspectives of nurses during the implementation of a team nursing model of care on a 32-bed, inpatient, cardiology floor in southern Ontario. The purposes of this project were to conduct a formative evaluation of the pilot unit implementation and make recommendations for future units who will implement this change in model. The project tracked all nurses on the pilot unit, from frontline nurses to those of influence and authority. Guided by an action research framework and a qualitative approach, nurses' experiences were explored through observations and analysis of organizational reports. These data were triangulated and further validated with evidence from the current literature. Major themes included the need for clear definitions of roles and responsibilities, a strong organizational support system, and the recognition that team nursing was more than a division of tasks but was a shift in culture to that of shared responsibility and accountability for all patients. These findings have implications for positive social change by informing the work of those in the health care setting, illuminating the benefits of team-based nursing.

A model for facilitative interaction during conflict in a college of nursing

Tlakula, Ntimela Rachel Cecilia 13 September 2012 (has links)
D.Cur. / The overall objective of this study is to describe a model that will serve as theoretical framework for facilitating interaction to both nurse educators and nursing students during conflict at a college of nursing. There is need for transformation at colleges concerning interaction during conflict and that can be facilitated through practising the opposite elements of negative interaction, identified in the field-work of the research study, which is compliance with norms, justice which is fair and equal treatment, facilitative communication, power sharing, facilitative peer group dynamics. A unique contribution in the model description is the facilitative interaction elements identified as opposites of the results of the field research, namely: Compliance with norms Justice, which is fair and equal treatment Facilitative communication Power sharing Facilitative peer group dynamics.

Models of psychiatric nursing education in developing countries : comparative study of Botswana and Nigeria

Adejumo, Oluyinka 04 1900 (has links)
Against the perspectives of the mental health needs of the people of Africa, this study explored and compared the models of psychiatric-mental health nursing education in two sub-Saharan African countries - Botswana and Nigeria. The primary purpose of the study was to assess the design, the implementation, the factors that influence and the perceived usefulness of psychiatric-mental health nursing education programmes in developing African countries, using Nigeria and Botswana as examples. A self-reporting questionnaire, administered to psychiatric nurse educators from the two countries of concern, provided the primary source of data. A curriculum evaluation checklist based on Horan, Knight, McAtee and Westrick (1984) was used to assess the components of the existing psychiatric nursing education curricula from the two countries. Discussions were also held with practising psychiatric nurses and officials of the nursing regulatory bodies from the two countries. Data from both countries revealed that participants used various terms to describe the same model for psychiatric-mental health nursing education adopted in their countries. Botswana, however, adopted a more functional generalist basic diploma nursing education approach which encouraged a more advanced post-basic diploma specialisation and practice in community psychiatric-mental health nursing. Nigeria's model leaned towards a hospital centred basic specialisation with no defined role for the generalist nurse within the psychiatric-mental health nursing care system. Community theme occurred in both countries' curricula with varying degrees of emphasis, as all the programmes claimed the intent to make psychiatric-mental health nursing service available to individuals, families and the communities at all levels of care. Psychiatric-mental health nursing education programmes of the two countries had been influenced at different times by war, colonial history, changing standards of health care delivery, government health policies, economic status of the country, professional status of nursing and the changing standard of education. A model that streamlined psychiatric-mental health nursing education within the general system of education in both countries was proposed. It was stressed that one key concept that must underlie the development of psychiatric-mental health nursing education was the need to create a mental health nursing role that would be appropriate for people's health needs rather than the needs of the health care system. / Advanced Nursing Science / D.Litt. et Phil.

Nurses' experiences of the practice of the PeerSpirit Circle model from a Gadamerian philosophical hermeneutic perspective

Lombard, Kristen Cronk 07 October 2013 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / The PeerSpirit Circle is a non-hierarchical, intentional, and relationship-centered practice of collaboration. There is a lack of scientific knowledge about the phenomenon of the PeerSpirit Circle in nursing or its potential impact on nursing practice, education, research, and the evolution of the profession and health care. The health care milieu is often entrenched in ways of being that do not support sustained change. For vitality to prosper and creativity to abound, paradigmatic shifts and new models of practice that emphasize collaboration are being called for. The purpose and aims of this phenomenological research study are to explore and give voice to the experiences of nurses who have participated in the PeerSpirit Circle model of practice with other nurses. The study includes interviews from five registered nurses from Canada and the United States conducted from 2009–2010 and interpreted from a Gadamerian philosophical hermeneutic perspective. The research findings reveal three themes: (1) experiencing the Circle container” where participants begin to understand the value of intentional preparation of the interpersonal space for safe human interaction and stronger collaboration—there are experiences of gathering, protecting, appreciating ritual, and sharing stories; (2) Experiencing space where protected space seems to be the essential element to inspire the presencing of participants with self and other, which in turn engenders genuine dialogue, a sense of sacred space, and freedom to be authentic; and (3) Experiencing our humanity, an unfolding theme, where participants experience reconnection with and understanding of their deeper humanity, stronger congruence with their core values, deeper experiences of caring and courage, personal and professional growth, and a profound appreciation for belonging to a lineage of nurses. The findings inspire a deeper understanding of barriers to congruence between values and action in nursing and nurses’ need to acknowledge, honor, support, and protect each other’s vulnerability. The implications for nursing practice, education, and research show that the PeerSpirit Circle model is a beneficial for use in all settings.

Transition experiences of the chronically ill adolescent

Unknown Date (has links)
The continued development of the American health care system and evolving technology have led to an increased life expectancy within the general population. In fact, these advancements have also resulted in growing numbers of young people with chronic illnesses living into adulthood. Approximately one third of children ages 10-17 have a chronic disease, and the vast majority of these children will survive beyond their 20th birthday (Blum, 1995; Lotstein, McPherson, Strickland, & Newacheck, 2005; White, 2002). The main objective of this study was to explore the healthcare transition (HCT) practices of health care providers and the HCT experiences of chronically ill young adults living with sickle cell disease, cystic fibrosis, and/or diabetes. Meleis, Sawyer, Im, Hifinger Messias, & Schumacher’s (2000) theory on transition and Boykin and Schoenhofer’s (2001) theory of Nursing as Caring provided the theoretical lenses throughwhich study findings were viewed. This was a descriptive exploratory mixed methods design that consisted of survey data and used conventional content analysis to analyze the qualitative data. The quantitative portion of this study incorporated a 41-question survey that was completed by 33 health care providers working with chronically ill young adults in the southeast Florida region. Additionally, semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight young adults (18-24 years of age) living with a sickle cell disease, cystic fibrosis, and/or diabetes. Five themes emerged from an analysis of the data describing the healthcare transition (HCT) experience: Transition Confusion, Familial Reliance, Lost in Transition, Fiscal Stressors, and Transition Uneasiness. The findings of this study demonstrate that there are, at minimum, three general parts of the HCT process that remain deficient: educational preparation, consistent communication between all parties involved in the HCT process, and guidance for the independent negotiation of the present healthcare system. Recommendations for healthcare providers that work with chronically ill young adults include establishing a HCT framework that incorporates consistent communication among team members and patients/families, individualized educational formats, and guidance for navigational skills to negotiate the healthcare system. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2014. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Els significats de l’experiència viscuda per persones amb fibromiàlgia. Una mirada des de la Infermeria

Olivé Ferrer, M. Carmen 06 October 2012 (has links)
Aquesta tesi planteja la vivència de persones afectades de Fibromiàlgia, malaltia crònica de difícil maneig clínic, des d’una perspectiva Infermera i adoptant la investigació qualitativa com a paradigma d’investigació, fent un disseny d’etnografia enfocada. S’ha fet Observació Participant (OP) a contextos clínics i contextos socials i s’han fet un total de 18 Entrevistes en Profunditat Obertes (EPO) a homes i a dones amb FM, a familiars, a polítics i a professionals. L’objectiu general de l’estudi és indagar en els significats de l’experiència viscuda al voltant del diagnòstic i les perspectives de vida de persones amb FM, amb la finalitat d'elaborar estratègies per a una millor cura infermera. L’anàlisi interpretatiu i simultani al marc teòric i treball de camp ha estat dinàmic i complex, adoptant ulleres infermeres graduades amb els models de Merle Mishel i Boykin i Shoenhofer, entre d’altres, i partint de les narratives i notes de camp, ens permeten la mirada Infermera en una malaltia crònica que genera dolor i malestar en els diferents espais i contextos de vida. Com a conclusions remarcar el trencament vital que suposa, per a les persones afectades i el seu entorn, la malaltia, tot i que aconsegueixen valorar l’experiència vital amb pèrdues i guanys, pèrdues per a la dificultat en el dia a dia per a homes i dones, en les tasques de la llar, la vida en família i de parella, el treball i les relacions socials; guanys en la presa de consciència de qui són, del que tenen, del nou valor que atorguen a cada moment, a les relacions familiars i amistats, a la possibilitat que han tingut de fer coses que d’altra manera no hagueren fet. Es percep malestar, frustració i conflictes en les relacions de cura i tractament. L’associacionisme és valorat, tot i que hi ha qui prefereix desenvolupar-se en altres contextos, es parla que a les associacions hi podrien participar professionals amb una actitud desinteressada. El diagnòstic diferencial, un tractament individualitzat i unes cures infermeres professionals esdevenen essencials per a una adaptació harmònica. El tractament es fa segons prescripció mèdica i hi ha forta adherència. Mostren un fort interès per mantenir-se actives i només el cansament i el dolor les fan desistir en les activitats tant personals i de lleure com socials i de treball. El temps es viu de manera particular i es pensa poc en el futur. Pel que fa a aportacions d’aquesta investigació podem parlar de la mirada global i complexa que fa de la vivència de la FM; el constatar que les persones afectades mostren un gran interès per ser protagonistes de les seves vides i mantenir-se actives en els diferents àmbits, també en el laboral; dir que les infermeres hi són poc visibles i, quan hi són, estan representades per un rol delegat i tradicional, manifestant que una atenció infermera centrada en els significats de l’experiència, i que utilitza la narrativa, va més enllà de la patologia i afavoreix que la persona cuidada esdevingui protagonista de la seva vida com és el desig que manifesten. Pel que fa als professionals mèdics representen els més visibles del sistema salut. El col•lectiu afectat diu que els necessita, i diferencia aquells que els comprenen i ajuden d’aquells que els desqualifiquen; el col•lectiu de persones afectades te la percepció que quan es cataloga algú de FM qualsevol queixa s’associa a la malaltia, podent passar desapercebudes altres alteracions senzilles o greus; les associacions cobreixen necessitats específiques que les administracions obliden, es planteja la possibilitat de participació professional sempre i quan tinguin una actitud de servei desinteressada, mostren una forta consciència de temporalitat, es gaudeix de les coses petites i dels moments sense crisis i es pensa poc en el futur. Pel que fa a propostes adoptar models infermers centrats en la persona que rep els cuidatges, contemplar la narrativa com instrument per a la coneixença de l’altra i els fenòmens al voltant de la salut i la vida, treballar de manera inter-poli-trans-disciplinar contemplant un diàleg fluït i incorporar el compromís social i polític en la salvaguarda de les necessitats globals de salut. / "The meanings of the experience of people with fibromyalgia. A view from the nursing" This thesis presents the experiences of people suffering from fibromyalgia, chronic disease management of difficult clinical nurse perspective and adopting qualitative research as a research paradigm, with a design focused ethnography. Participant observation has been made (OP) in clinical contexts and social contexts and have a total of 18 in-depth interviews Open (EPO) in men and women with FM, relatives, politicians and professionals. The overall objective of the study is to investigate the meanings of lived experience about diagnosis and life prospects of people with FM, in order to develop strategies for better care nurse. The interpretive analysis and simultaneous theoretical and field work has been dynamic and complex, taking prescription glasses with nurses models and Merle Mishel and Shoenhofer Boykin, among others, and considering the narratives and field notes, we Nurse can look into a chronic disease that creates pain and discomfort in different spaces and contexts of life. In summary noted that the break is vital for the affected people and the environment, disease, although able to assess life experience gains and losses, losses due to the difficulty in every day for men and women in the household chores, family life and marital, work and social relations gains in awareness of who they are, what they have, the new value assigned to each point, the family and friends, who have had the possibility to do things you would not otherwise have made. Perceived discomfort, frustration and conflicts in care and treatment. The association is valued, although some people prefer to develop in other contexts, there is talk that it could participate in professional associations with a selfless attitude. The differential diagnosis, individualized treatment and a professional nursing care becomes essential for a harmonious adaptation. The treatment is carried out under medical prescription and there is strong adhesion. Show a strong interest in staying active and just tiredness and pain make them desist in both personal and leisure activities, social or labor. Weather you live in a particular way and think little of the future. Regarding contributions of this research we can speak of global and complex look that makes the experience of FM; establish that the affected people show great interest in becoming protagonists of their lives and remain active in various fields, including the labor nurses say there are barely visible, and when there are, are represented by a traditional CEO role, saying that attention focused on the meanings of nursing experience, and uses narrative goes beyond the pathology and favors the person cared become the protagonist of his life and the desire to manifest. With regard to medical professionals representing the most visible health system. The group affected says it needs, unlike those who understand and help those who are disqualified, the collective has affected the perception that when someone is cataloged FM complaints associated with the disease , simple changes can go unnoticed or other serious; associations covering specific needs that government neglect, raises the possibility of professional participation provided they have an attitude of selfless service shows a strong awareness of temporality, enjoying the small things and moments of crisis and without little thought for the future. Regarding proposals to adopt models nurses focused on the person receiving the Caring contemplate narrative as an instrument for the knowledge of the other and the phenomena around health and life, to work inter-poly-trans looking-disciplinary dialogue seamlessly incorporate social and political commitment to safeguard global health needs.
