Book Improving Nursing Students  Attitudes Toward People with Disabilities

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Evidence suggests that attitudes of health professionals toward people with disabilities (PWD) may influence their seeking healthcare. Quality of care may be driven by attitudes of health professionals; thus, strategies aimed at improving attitudes might improve patient care. The aim of this pilot study was to assess the effectiveness of an online video, Access to Medical Care--Adults With Physical Disabilities, in improving attitudes of nursing students toward PWD. A convenience sample of students in a senior-level nursing course participated in this project. The Interaction with Disabled Persons Scale was given to students pre- and postvideo. Findings suggested that the video had a positive impact on nursing students' attitudes and perceptions regarding PWD. A positive and nonjudgmental attitude should prepare nursing students to care for PWD and influence the likelihood of disabled persons seeking primary care.

Book Nurse Educator Attitudes Toward People with Disability in the Southeastern United States

Download or read book Nurse Educator Attitudes Toward People with Disability in the Southeastern United States written by Lorena Lyon and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this quantitative study was to assess the attitudes of nurse educators toward people with disability. This study also compared the relationship between nurse educator attitudes toward disability and their definition of disability. Furthermore, the research investigated the influence of age and professional years of experience on the nurse educator's attitude toward people with disability. Prior research shows that nurses and nursing students have negative attitudes toward people with disability and there is a gap in research on the attitudes of nurse educators. In addition, the literature suggests a link exists between educator attitude and student attitude development. If the nurse educator has a negative attitude toward people with disability, it will influence the developing attitude of the student nurse. The subjects, 126 nurse educators from Baccalaureate programs in the Southeast, completed the World Health Organization's (WHO) multidimensional Attitudes to Disability Scale (ADS) and provided disability model preference, professional experience, and demographic data using a web-based survey. Demographic results showed that nurses had an average age of 53 years, an average of 29 years as a nurse, and 13 years as an educator. Results indicated that nurses had generally positive explicit attitudes toward people with disability and preferred for a bio-psychosocial view of disability as defined in the International Classification of Function, Disability, and Health (ICF). The data showed no relationship existed between attitude and definition of disability or attitude and the age and years of experience as a nurse educator. A Principle Component Analysis (PCA) performed on the ADS resulted in reordering and renaming of the subscales to enhance its use with nurse educators. The original ADS subscales, inclusion, discrimination, gains, and prospects were changed to belonging, discrimination, gains, and opportunity.

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.
