Book Nursing Students  Perceptions of and Experiences with Coping as They Face Stress in Clinical Practice

Download or read book Nursing Students Perceptions of and Experiences with Coping as They Face Stress in Clinical Practice written by GURPREET. KAUR and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical practice is a major component of nursing education wherein significant learning takes place. It is also a place where nursing students can experience stress which can have a negative impact on their learning. The purpose of this study was to explore nursing students' perceptions of and experiences with their coping efforts as they face stress associated with clinical practice. Lazarus and Folkmans' theory of stress and coping guided this study. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 undergraduate nursing students. Qualitative thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. Four major themes emerged upon analysis: Learning about self, Social Support, Self-Care, and Clinical Instructors. Nursing students need clinical environments which let them face challenges and meet the responsibilities of nursing practice with support from clinical instructors (Emerson, 2007; Parker & Myrick, 2010). A non-punitive and respectful environment is essential for a student to learn and cope effectively with stressful situations. Clinical instructors play a significant role in the clinical practice of nursing students. Clinical instructors facilitate learning by helping students to overcome situational, knowledge-related or emotional stressors. Negative relationships with them can increase the amount of stress in students in their clinical practice. Whereas positive relationships with the instructors and the staff on the unit increase students' comfort, decrease stress, and enhance learning. This study yielded qualitative data on nursing students' views about and experiences with coping with the stress from their clinical practice. This study also provided valuable information regarding the clinical instructor's role in the coping process. The findings have implications for improving the clinical instructor's role in enhancing coping among nursing students with the stress that arises from clinical practice.

Book A Look at Conducting Qualitative Research with Nursing Students

Download or read book A Look at Conducting Qualitative Research with Nursing Students written by Joan Niederriter and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to identify characteristics and teaching techniques of effective clinical instructors that can be utilized to improve the student nurses' clinical experience. Clinical instructors are an integral part of a quality clinical experience. They help students transfer didactic information to the practice setting. The clinical nursing experience is a vital component in the developmental process of the nursing student. Research has been conducted on this subject, but gaps remain. The need for a more in-depth understanding of students' perceptions of the characteristics and teaching techniques that best aid their comprehension and learning will help instructors to maximize student learning experiences. This qualitative research study utilized the phenomenological research method. Phenomenology is a method that interprets the lived experience by listening to the different stories of participants. The method examines the phenomena through the subjective eyes of the participants. Three open-ended questions were posed to 14 nursing students to identify the characteristics and teaching techniques they believed comprised an effective clinical instructor. Individual interviews were conducted, and transcribed interviews were reviewed to identify common themes. Three faculty members provided member checking to prevent bias. Participants identified four main themes which included a trusting relationship, experience or knowledge, coach, and role model. The students found that they gained more knowledge, developed more critical thinking, and felt more confident with instructors who utilized characteristics and techniques from these four areas. Clinical instructors play an important role in preparing the student nurse in becoming a competent nurse in the practice setting. This information can be used to provide a foundation in creating an educational opportunity to inform nurse educators in ways to become a more effective clinical instructor.

Book Moral Resilience

Download or read book Moral Resilience written by Cynda H. Rushton and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suffering is an unavoidable reality in healthcare. Not only are patients and families suffering but also the clinicians who care for them. Commonly the suffering experienced by clinicians is moral in nature, in part a reflection of the increasing complexity of health care, their roles within it, and the expanding range of available interventions that challenge their moral foundations. Moral suffering is the anguish that arises occurs in response to moral adversity that challenges clinicians integrity: the inner harmony that arises when their essential values and commitments are aligned with their choices and actions. The sources and sequelae of moral distress, one type of moral suffering, have been documented among clinicians across specialties. Transforming their suffering will require solutions that expanded individual and system strategies. Moral resilience, the capacity of an individual to restore or sustain integrity in response to moral adversity, offers a path forward. It encompasses capacities aimed at developing self- regulation and self-awareness, buoyancy, moral efficacy, self-stewardship and ultimately personal and relational integrity. Whether it involves gradual or profound radical change clinicians have the potential to transform themselves and their clinical practice in ways that more authentically reflect their character, intentions and values. The burden of healing our healthcare system is not the sole responsibility of individuals. Clinicians and healthcare organizations must work together to transform moral suffering by cultivating the individual capacities for moral resilience and designing a new architecture to support ethical practice. Used worldwide for scalable and sustainable change, the Conscious Full Spectrum approach, offers a method to solve problems to support integrity, shift patterns that undermine moral resilience and ethical practice, and leverage the inner potential of clinicians and leaders to produce meaningful and sustainable results that benefit all.

Book Undergraduate Nursing Student Perceptions of Developing Confidence Through Clinical Learning Experiences

Download or read book Undergraduate Nursing Student Perceptions of Developing Confidence Through Clinical Learning Experiences written by Tracy Luedtke and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The clinical learning environment (CLE) provides students with an opportunity to build confidence and competence in the provision of patient care (Benner, 2010). The aim of this qualitative descriptive research was to explore and describe student perceptions of developing confidence through their clinical learning experiences, discovering what features of the CLE support their learning and the development of confidence. Ten students were recruited through purposive sampling and participated in one-on-one semi-structured interviews. Self-efficacy theory (Bandura, 1997) was used as a theoretical framework to guide this research and for the interpretation of the content analysis. The analysis revealed five socio-structural themes that support student learning and development of confidence. These findings elaborate Bandura's (1997) theory. The most influential, through verbal persuasion was the clinical nursing instructor (CNI) followed by self, the buddy nurse, peers, and the staff/unit environment. Students perceived their development of confidence through a bi-directional interaction between their cognitive/affective processes, behaviour and the CLE. Understanding student perceptions of their confidence development, signals the need for informed pedagogical strategies to support student learning and development of confidence.
