Moniammatillinen suursimulaatio opiskelijoiden oppimisen näkökulmasta

Artikkelissa tarkastellaan uuden simulaatio-oppimisen menetelmän –suursimulaation– merkitystä sosiaalityön ja sosiaalipsykologian opiskelijoiden oppimisen näkökulmasta. Etsimme vastauksia seuraaviin tutkimuskysymyksiin: mitä opiskelijat oppivat moniammatillisesta työskentelystä suursimulaatiota seuratessaan ja sitä jälkeenpäin oppimistehtävissä reflektoidessaan sekä millaisia havaintoja opiskelijat tekevät suursimulaatioon osallistuttuaan simulaatio-oppimisesta. Suursimulaatiolla tarkoitetaan draamaperustaisesti, näyttelijöiden ja eri alojen ammattilaisten avustuksella toteutettua simulaatioharjoitusta, jota voi olla seuraamassa satoja eri alojen opiskelijoita ja ammattilaisia yhtä aikaa. Artikkelin aineistona olivat yhteiskuntatieteiden opiskelijoiden oppimisreflektiot kahdesta moniammatillisesta suursimulaatiosta, ja ne analysoitiin aineistolähtöisen sisällönanalyysin menetelmällä. Tutkimuksen tuloksena esitetään, että suursimulaatio on hyvä moniammatillisuuden opetus- ja oppimismenetelmä, sillä havainnoinnin keinoin voi oppia paljon moniammatillisuuden käytännöistä ja merkityksistä. Oppimiskokemukset kiinnittyvät sisällöllisesti moniammatillisuuden vaatimuksien ja sen tuottamien hyötyjen havaitsemiseen ja oppimiskokemuksen reflektoinnin näkökulmasta suursimulaation pedagogisten vahvuuksien pohtimiseen

Development of a questionnaire to explore the nursing students' perceptions of infection prevention and control learning in academia

Across the European Higher Nursing Education Institutions (HNEIs) there is an emergent need to integrate Healthcare-associated Infections (HCAIs) prevention and control-related contents into the curricula, given that nursing students are expected to provide increasingly effective, safe and quality care. However, to the best of our knowledge, little is known about student nurses’ perceptions regarding the HCAIs-related content lectured in HNEIs, as well as current challenges in their learning process within this thematic scope

Innovative Educational Approach in Healthcare-Associated Infection Prevention and Control. Results of a European Study

Prevent and control healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) is a priority in healthcare assistance, not only due to present COVID-19 pandemic. Annually, around 3.2 million patients are affected by one of these infections and it is estimated that without controlling them, by 2050, 10 million more people could die every year, with especial relevance among elderly with infectious situations representing a third of mortality in people over 65 years old. Higher Education Institutions (HEI) in healthcare area have an important role in this panorama, by preparing students to be future professionals, stimulating them to have an innovative and entrepreneurial approach to today’s real-life challenges. A mixed-methods research was conducted, at European level (in Portugal, Finland, Poland and Spain), to facilitate learning of good practices on HAIs prevention and control while developing innovative solutions. 1475 participants were enrolled, from all partner HEI: 79 professors and mentors were interviewed (individual or focus group), 1326 final year nursing students made a self-report inventory (application of InovSafeCare Scale) and 70 students participated on focus group (agile piloting of the Model). The result of this research is a pedagogical model that mixes dimensions and methods that take nursing students closer to the demands of HAIs prevention and control and capacitates them to transfer knowledge to work settings with an innovative and entrepreneurial perspective – the InovSafeCare Model.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

PROCES KSZTAŁCENIA W ZAKRESIE PROFILAKTYKI I KONTROLI ZAKAŻEŃ ZWIĄZANYCH Z OPIEKĄ ZDROWOTNĄ W EUROPEJSKICH INSTYTUCJACH SZKOLNICTWA WYŻSZEGO – BADANIE JAKOŚCIOWE

[EN] Healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs) affect the lives of patients through prolonged stay in hospital, illness, or even death, incurring signifi cant costs to both healthcare systems and society. Research shows that during a stay in a hospital, approximately 20% to 30% of patients are diagnosed with at least one infection. Openness, fi ne interpersonal and communication skills as well as adequate opportunities for training courses for healthcare staff contribute to promoting HCAI/HAI prevention. HCAI/HAI-related education should contribute to widening knowledge and mastering practical skills. It is assumed that lecturers, professional instructors, and coordinators create a signifi cant foundation for professional development and social interactions by applying interactive pedagogical models. [POL] Zakażenia związane z opieką zdrowotną (Healthca- re associated infections, HCAI) wpływają na życie pacjentów poprzez przedłużony pobyt w szpitalu, chorobę, a nawet śmierć, powodując znaczne koszty zarówno dla systemów opieki zdrowotnej, jak i spo- łeczeństwa. Badania pokazują, że podczas pobytu w szpitalu u około 20% do 30% pacjentów diagnozuje się co najmniej jedną infekcję Otwarte podejście, wysokie umiejętności interpersonalne i komu- nikacyjne, a także odpowiednie możliwości szkoleń dla personelu medycznego przyczyniają się do promowania profi laktyki HCAI/ HAI. Kształcenie w zakresie HCAI/HAI powinno przyczynić się do poszerzenia wiedzy i opanowania praktycznych umiejętności. Zakłada się, że wykładowcy, profesjonalni instruktorzy, koordy- natorzy tworzą istotne podstawy rozwoju zawodowego i interakcji społecznych poprzez stosowanie interaktywnych modeli pedago- gicznych

Nursing Students' Perceptions on Healthcare-Associated Infection Control and Prevention Teaching and Learning Experience: Development and Validation of a Scale in Four European Countries

Healthcare-associated infections are one of the major concerns worldwide. This study presents the development and the validation process of the InovSafeCare scale and aimed at identifying and measuring the ecosystem variables related to healthcare-associated infection (HCAI) prevention and control practices in European nurse students. Qualitative and quantitative approaches were used to (1) elaborate an item pool related to the educational environment, the healthcare setting environment, and the attitudes, beliefs, and performance of the nursing students regarding HCAI prevention and control and (2) analyze psychometric properties of the scale using factor analysis. The validated InovSafeCare scale was applied to undergraduate nursing students of five European Higher Education Institutions. The partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) method with SMART-PLS3 software was used. The study sample consists of 657 nursing students, who responded a self-report inventory. From the analyzed data were identified 14 factors. The InovSafeCare scale reveals good validity and reliability of the dimensions in different European countries.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Nursing Students’ Perceptions on Healthcare-Associated Infection Control and Prevention Teaching and Learning Experience in Portugal

Healthcare-associated infections (HAI) are one of the major concerns worldwide, posing significant challenges to healthcare professionals’ education and training. This study intended to measure nursing students’ perceptions regarding their learning experiences on HAI prevention and control. In the first phase of the study, a cross-sectional and descriptive study with a convenience sample composed of undergraduate nursing students from Portugal, Spain, Poland, and Finland was conducted to develop the InovSafeCare questionnaire. In the second phase, we applied the InovSafeCare scale in a sample of nursing students from two Portuguese higher education institutions to explore which factors impact nursing students’ adherence to HAI prevention and control measures in clinical settings. In phase one, the InovSafeCare questionnaire was applied to 1326 students internationally, with the instrument presenting adequate psychometric qualities with reliability results in 14 dimensions. During phase two, the findings supported that Portuguese nursing students’ adherence to HAI prevention and control measures is influenced not only by the curricular offerings and resources available in academic settings, but also by the standards conveyed by nursing tutors during clinical placements. Our findings support the need for a dedicated curricular focus on HAI prevention and control learning, not only through specific classroom modules, innovative resources, and pedagogical approaches, but also through a complementary and coordinated liaison between teachers and tutors in academic and clinical settings.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

SIMULATION AS A TEACHING METHOD FOR NURSING EDUCATION IN HEALTHCARE-ASSOCIATED INFECTION PREVENTION AND CONTROL IN ASIAN COUNTRIES: A QUALITATIVE STUDY

BACKGROUND: Applying simulation for nursing education, especially in healthcare-associated infection prevention and control (HAI-PC) in developing countries has limited evidence. The study was conducted to explore educators’ perceptions of simulation as a teaching method for nursing education in HAI-PC in two Vietnamese and two Cambodian universities. METHODS: An exploratory qualitative design was applied. A focus group of 37 educators from four universities was conducted for data collection. Inductive and deductive qualitative content analysis was applied in analysing the data. RESULTS: The core category was constructed to reflect educators’ perception of scenario-based simulation (SBS) as a teaching method for nursing education in HAI prevention and control. This main category included three subcategories: (i) enhancing nursing competence; (ii) preparing students for simulation; and [1] promoting simulation pedagogy competence. CONCLUSIONS: The findings identified the importance and benefits of applying simulation as a teaching method in nursing education. Additionally, it emphasized the necessity of enhancing knowledge associated with HAIs and providing additional training on simulation for educators to improve the quality of conducting simulations
