Download or read book Expert Clinician to Novice Nurse Educator written by Jeanne Merkle Sorrell, PhD, FAAN, RN and published by Springer Publishing Company. This book was released on 2015-08-24 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research shows that the sharing of personal, first-hand stories not only enhances learning and eases the transition to a new role, but also helps novice educators to understand that their challenges are shared by others. With the goal of improving the experience of nurses transitioning from clinician to educator, in hospitals as well as schools of nursing, this unique book presents the stories of nurses who made this transition. It presents the findings of several qualitative studies addressing the question, ìWhat is the lived experience of clinicians as they assume new roles as clinical nurse educators?î These narratives describe the challenges they faced and transformations in each nurseís identity and relationships during the transition process. The text includes recommendations from the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and specific problem-solving strategies that have worked for others. The narratives are from nurse clinicians, nurse educators, and students who provide insights into such common dilemmas faced by novice educators as ìHow do I keep a patient safe while allowing the student nurse to practice a skill for the first time?î ìIf a student is slow to catch on to a procedure, how long do I wait before they fail?î ìHow do I help provide a safe and effective learning environment for new graduate nurses?î The book includes stories of students who describe caring and uncaring experiences with clinical nurse educators. Stories address cultural diversity, bullying, and dilemmas related to critical and ethical thinking. Nurse educators themselves share insights into what they wish they had done differently to guide students and new graduate nurses in their learning. While these storytellers had diverse clinical and educational backgrounds, there were consistent similarities between the experiences they described. One common thread was the need to embrace the role of a novice in order to succeed. The book will serve as a valuable text for graduate students in nurse educator courses as well as students and nurses seeking support, insight, and inspiration in their transition to the clinical nurse educator role. Key Features: Presents experiential narratives from nurses who made the transition from clinician to educator Describes important aspects of a nurseís transition from the role of clinical expert to that of novice educator Includes research-based insights in a highly accessible style and format Integrates National League for Nursing Core Competencies into the text Provides inspiring, helpful, and comforting guidance for nurse clinicians feeling lost or confused in a new role

Download or read book Reduce Failure to Rescue and Increase Competence and Confidence in Novice Nurses Through Simulation written by Lisa Knudsen and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Failure to rescue (FTR) a patient from clinical deterioration is a multi-faceted issue that has dire consequences on patients and their families. Novice nurses placed in intense situations without prior experience can negatively affect patient outcomes. Novice nurses themselves question their abilities and feel unprepared. Medium-fidelity simulation of patient decline during nursing orientation provides a safe venue for novice nurses to practice their assessment and intervention skills related to FTR. Implementation of this evidence-based practice change exposed 11 newly-licensed nurses to an FTR simulation where nurses were required to discern the patient problem and intervene appropriately. Pre- and post- self-assessments of confidence and competence demonstrated a 22.5% increase in global mean scores post-intervention (p = 0.001). The highest improvement post-implementation related to self-assessment of ability to recognize signs and symptoms of clinical change, with a 25% increase in mean scores (p = 0.001). Implications for nursing practice include utilization of simulation for other skill related gaps in both novice and experienced practitioners. Key words: novice nurse; newly licensed nurse; clinical deterioration; failure to rescue; simulation; transition to practice; critical thinking " -- Abstract
