Download or read book Teaching and Learning in Nursing written by Gregor Stiglic and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2017-05-17 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A significant body of knowledge is the basis for a holistic, caring and scientific evidence-based nursing education in practice for professional development. Quality teaching leads to good learning and both aspects are two of the main issues of quality assurance in nursing education today. To begin with, not all nursing students have the same levels of motivation or learning abilities. It is with cognisance of providing quality care for patients that the role of the nurse educator has to be to enhance nursing students' learning using scientific evidence based teaching. Research around teaching and learning processes is an important part of the delivery of quality education, which in turn impacts on students' learning results and experiences, thereby, ensuring holistic biopsychosocial care to patients. The main aim of teaching and learning in nursing, at all levels, is to enhance the nurses' contribution to assist the individuals, families and communities in promoting and preserving health, well-being and to efficiently respond to illnesses. We hope that this book can be used as a resource to increase the body of knowledge in teaching and learning in nursing, thereby enhancing the role and contribution of health care professionals to clinical practice.

Download or read book The Future of Nursing written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-02-08 with total page 700 pages. 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.

This book was released on 1974 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data on the numbers, distribution, and characteristics of nursing personnel and potential nursing resources are essential in planning health programs which will keep pace with changing health care requirements, in evaluating the outcome of the programs, and as baseline data for research studies and other investigations. Within the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, the Division of Nursing is responsible for the compilation and continual analysis of these data. They are used extensively by the Division, by other units of the Department, by various Government agencies, planning groups, and by public and private organizations concerned with health manpower. This publication has been prepared in answer to numerous requests for updated source book materials, and to an increasing awareness of the need for their compilation. It presents the most recent data available for the States and the Nation in late 1974, continues the time series that are not included in other publications, and discusses similarities, differences, and limitations of various nurse manpower surveys, interrelated with new definitions and new trends. We hope that this systematic compilation and analysis of available data will provide for its users not only a useful reference volume, but also some bases for in-depth studies of specific variables which comprise the body of statistical knowledge of nursing personnel.
