Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine levels of death anxiety perceived by a group of non-hospice nurses and compare them with levels perceived by a group of hospice nurses. A convenience sample of twenty subjects participated in this study. This sample consisted of ten nurses who worked within the hospice setting and ten who worked within the acute care medical surgical setting. Nurses who had sustained the death of a close family member within the past year were disqualified. The sample was obtained from a local private hospital and two local hospices. Data were collected using a Demographic Data Sheet and a modified likert conversion of Templer's Death Anxiety Scale. The research design was non-experimental. The theoretical framework utilized was Peplau's model of nursing practice. The dependent variables were the resulting scores on the Death Anxiety Scale. The independent variable was the specialty of the nurse. A Mann Whitney U test analyzing the dependent variable revealed significance at p

Book excerpt: "Nurses play a vital role in improving the safety and quality of patient car -- not only in the hospital or ambulatory treatment facility, but also of community-based care and the care performed by family members. Nurses need know what proven techniques and interventions they can use to enhance patient outcomes. To address this need, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), with additional funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, has prepared this comprehensive, 1,400-page, handbook for nurses on patient safety and quality -- Patient Safety and Quality: An Evidence-Based Handbook for Nurses.

Download or read book New Research on the Psychology of Fear written by Paul L. Gower and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fear is a normal human emotional reaction - it is a built-in survival mechanism with which we are all equipped. Fear is a reaction to danger that involves both the mind and body. It serves a protective purpose - signalling us of danger and preparing us to deal with it. The major components of fear are sensations, feelings, cognitions and behaviours. Fear can be individual or collective such as expressed in the national fear in the United States related to terrorism. The Washington DC sniper attacks caused widespread fear in a large geographic region far out of proportion to the real danger. Individuals must cope with fear on a daily basis in a myriad of forms: financial fears, health fears, relationship conflict fears, dental appointments, fears about the future etc. This new book collects important research, which helps shed light on important issues in this field which touches all of us each day.

This book was released on 2016-11-08 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family caregiving affects millions of Americans every day, in all walks of life. At least 17.7 million individuals in the United States are caregivers of an older adult with a health or functional limitation. The nation's family caregivers provide the lion's share of long-term care for our older adult population. They are also central to older adults' access to and receipt of health care and community-based social services. Yet the need to recognize and support caregivers is among the least appreciated challenges facing the aging U.S. population. Families Caring for an Aging America examines the prevalence and nature of family caregiving of older adults and the available evidence on the effectiveness of programs, supports, and other interventions designed to support family caregivers. This report also assesses and recommends policies to address the needs of family caregivers and to minimize the barriers that they encounter in trying to meet the needs of older adults.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About one third of the more than 700,000 deaths that occur in hospitals each year are unanticipated. Without appropriate training and experience, a patient's impending death can be overwhelming, and an unexpected death can be even more confusing and traumatic for the novice nurse. Nurse educators have incorporated simulation activities to increase pre-licensure nursing students' competencies in end-of-life and palliative care. However, these types of simulations do not help prepare students to care for patients that die unexpectedly. Due to the perceived negative effects that stress and anxiety could have on pre-licensure students, simulation professionals remain reluctant to expose students to unexpected death simulations. Prior research indicated that students experience large amounts of stress and anxiety in critical care simulations, but explanations are lacking with regards to the variance in students' performance in meeting simulation outcomes; some students perform well, while others do not. Furthermore, the minimal research found related specifically to unexpected death simulations did not explore the relationships between stress, anxiety, learning outcomes and potential moderating factors such as resilience, and was found to lack methodological and statistical rigor. Therefore, it is prudent to explore the effects of stress, anxiety, and resilience, and students' perceptions of an unexpected death simulation. A descriptive, correlational, mixed methods design using a convergent, parallel QUAN+QUAL technique was used as the research method for this study. A pilot study informed and helped finalized methods and procedures. In addition to the research protocol, safety protocols related to COVID-19 were finalized and Institutional Review Board permission was obtained. A convenience sample of students was recruited from a small eastern North Carolina community college where the fourth semester of an Associated Degree Nursing program includes a stroke simulation which leads to unexpected death. Study data were collected by research assistants and the principal investigator, who then prepared the data for analysis. Analytical methods included descriptive statistics, statistical procedures to explore relationships among variables and to compare groups, and one-on-one interviews; these were then placed in a meta-matrix for a combined analysis of QUANT+QUAL data. Study results from the pilot study are discussed in chapter four, while the results of the dissertation study are discussed in chapter five.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " This is the first research-based book to confront workplace issues facing nurses who have disabilities. It not only examines in depth their experiences, roadblocks to successful employment, and misperceptions surrounding them, but also provides viable solutions for creating positive attitudes towards them and a welcoming work environment that fosters hiring and retention. From the perspectives and actual voices of nurses with disabilities, nurse leaders, nurse administrators, and patients, the book identifies nurses with disabilities (including sensory, musculoskeletal, emotional, and mental health issues), discusses why they choose to leave nursing or hide their disabilities, and analyzes how their disabilities may influence career choices.
