Book Nursing Faculty Perceptions of Anxiety in Nursing Students

Download or read book Nursing Faculty Perceptions of Anxiety in Nursing Students written by Cristina Andraca Tansey and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nursing profession relies on the delivery of safe, competent care to produce positive patient outcomes. In preparation to enter the nursing workforce, students must develop the knowledge, skills, and clinical judgment to practice in a complex healthcare environment. Research has demonstrated, however, that nursing students experience an increased level of anxiety which can interfere with learning and performance. This qualitative phenomenological study explored nursing faculty perceptions of anxiety among prelicensure baccalaureate nursing students. The research question guiding this study was: What are nursing faculty perceptions of anxiety among nursing students? The Comfort-Stretch-Panic model was used as a framework to illustrate the degree to which anxiety can impact students' learning. Thirteen nursing faculty from nursing programs across Pennsylvania were interviewed. Data were analyzed using Colaizzi's method and led to four themes: (1) recognizing expressions of anxiety, (2) understanding influencing factors, (3) finding a balance, and (4) acknowledging the faculty role. The theme of understanding influencing factors revealed two subthemes: (a) expectations and (b) realizing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Data analysis highlighted faculty awareness of students' experiences of anxiety and factors that impact these feelings. The Comfort-Stretch-Panic model was described and its application to nursing education was identified as a framework to understand student anxiety. Recommendations for nursing education and practice included ongoing faculty development and the use of simulation to help faculty identify how best to support students. Futrher research is needed to achieve student learning outcomes.

Book Nursing Faculty Perceptions  about Characteristics of Mentoring Relationships

Download or read book Nursing Faculty Perceptions about Characteristics of Mentoring Relationships written by Jeanette H. (Bjurback) Lupinacci and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interview study examined perceptions of tenure track nursing faculty currently involved, or previously involved, as mentees in nursing departments in order to gather their reports about characteristics of their mentoring relationships, as well as the benefits and shortcomings of the mentoring they experienced. This occurred within seven baccalaureate schools of nursing in a single east coast state. The major conclusions were: 1. Mentors promote interpersonal bonding by serving as guides and resources for their mentees, which results in mentees freely dialoguing with department members. 2. Creating an environment of social support for new faculty mentees involves clearly defining expectations, inviting members to participate with mentors and other university leaders at meetings both at the university, as well as the surrounding communities. It is also important for the department of nursing to ensure that mentors are fully available to provide mentees with opportunities to listen, give advice, and provide feedback. 3. Mentors need to expose their mentees to opportunities for active participation in research, applying for grants, networking, and discussions about internal review board processes, as well as demands placed on nurse educators, as opposed to nurse clinicians. Discussion of all these topics should be incorporated into the department faculty and school of nursing meetings, which mentees should attend. 4. Departmental and school history needs to be communicated to new nursing faculty formally, rather than allowing such information to be only transmitted informally. 5. Mentors must be accessible to mentees when they first start their jobs. How responsive they are and how much time is devoted to the new mentoring relationship is very important, as is responding to mentees needs in a positive fashion by devoting time for one-to-one meetings weekly or every other week. These one-to-one interactions help to facilitate bonding between mentor and mentee.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Nursing explores how nurses' roles, responsibilities, and education should change significantly to meet the increased demand for care that will be created by health care reform and to advance improvements in America's increasingly complex health system. At more than 3 million in number, nurses make up the single largest segment of the health care work force. They also spend the greatest amount of time in delivering patient care as a profession. Nurses therefore have valuable insights and unique abilities to contribute as partners with other health care professionals in improving the quality and safety of care as envisioned in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) enacted this year. Nurses should be fully engaged with other health professionals and assume leadership roles in redesigning care in the United States. To ensure its members are well-prepared, the profession should institute residency training for nurses, increase the percentage of nurses who attain a bachelor's degree to 80 percent by 2020, and double the number who pursue doctorates. Furthermore, regulatory and institutional obstacles-including limits on nurses' scope of practice-should be removed so that the health system can reap the full benefit of nurses' training, skills, and knowledge in patient care. In this book, the Institute of Medicine makes recommendations for an action-oriented blueprint for the future of nursing.

Book Using a Qualitative Approach to Explore Nursing Faculty Perceptions of Teaching Online

Download or read book Using a Qualitative Approach to Explore Nursing Faculty Perceptions of Teaching Online written by Yvonne M. Smith and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research study was to understand perceptions of faculty members regarding their experiences of teaching nursing courses in undergraduate baccalaureate and graduate programs, using asynchronous, web-based courses. The goal of this researcher was to explore faculty perceptions of online teaching and work to clarify workload and policy issues, barriers to quality online teaching and learning, and faculty needs for professional development and support. A qualitative descriptive design method was used to explore nursing faculty perceptions of teaching online. Data were obtained through an initial demographic survey and through interviews with a subset of 10 faculty participants. The findings from this study reveal that nursing faculty members perceive (a) that relationships are key to learning and that these relationships can be complex and difficult to establish in the online learning environment, (b) that support comes in a variety of forms and is needed to make learning work well in the online environment, (c) that constraints and concerns interfere with their ability to engage students and provide the best online learning opportunities for their students, and (d) that there are opportunities to improve online teaching and learning. The findings from this study deepen our understanding of online teaching and learning in the discipline of nursing. Implications for nursing education include preparing nurse educators for the work of teaching in online environments, creating environments that foster teaching and learning, and enriching both faculty member and student experiences in online teaching and learning.

Book Generational Differences in Nursing Students  Perceptions of Faculty Caring Behaviors and Presence in Online RN BSN Programs

Download or read book Generational Differences in Nursing Students Perceptions of Faculty Caring Behaviors and Presence in Online RN BSN Programs written by Kimberly Cardaci Macario and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faculty-student relationships include overlapping concepts of caring and presence, both of which can have an impact on learning outcomes, satisfaction, and retention. Students of varying generations may have different attitudes and expectations for their academic experience concerning technology and the faculty-student relationship. Based upon the Theory of Human Caring (Watson, 1979) and the Community of Inquiry Framework (Garrison, Anderson, & Archer, 1999), the purpose of this study was to explore how students of different generations perceived caring behaviors by faculty and presence in online RN-BSN pregrams. The study utilized the Organizational Climate for Caring Questionnaire (Hughes, 1993) to measure students' perceptions of faculty caring behaviors, the Community of Inquiry Survey Instrument (Arbaugh et al., 2008) to measure students' perceptions of presence, and a researcher-developed demographic questionnaire. Participants were recruited from online RN-BSN programs within the northeast region of the United States to complete an online survey. Results showed no difference between generational perceptions of caring; however, millennials reported statistically significant higher perceptions of social presence when compared with non-millennials. Although generation was not a predictor of caring, all Presence subscales were positively and significantly correlated with the total caring score. Also, the number of online courses a student has taken was negatively and significantly correlated with total caring scores. Teaching presence and the reported number of online courses were significant predictors of the students' perceptions of caring in online courses.

This book was released on 2013-07-25 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current qualitative phenomenological study involved identifying and exploring the factors contributing to the nursing faculty shortage of Western Massachusetts. Through interviews, 24 participants, including 5 for the pilot study, identified and discussed the reasons why they chose not to teach, or to continue to teach, and why registered nurses did not choose faculty teaching as a career track in education. Poor salaries were the primary factor contributing to the shortage of nursing faculty in Western Massachusetts. Participants provided personal insight and suggestions concerning various educational institutions in Western Massachusetts and participated in a Massachusetts survey that examined many suggestions to alleviate the faculty shortage in Western Massachusetts.
