Book excerpt: Empathetic behaviors by nurses have been shown to improve both patient satisfaction and health outcomes. However, there has been a documented decline in empathy levels among the undergraduate population, including nursing students. For these reasons nurse educators have sought ways to foster and improve empathy development in nursing students. Furthermore, even though there has been a steady increase in online education and teaching strategies, there has been little evidence in the literature to support the effectiveness of online modules to teach non-technical skills such as empathy. This quasi-experimental study used a pretest/posttest design to evaluate the effectiveness of an e-simulation intervention using an expert patient with diabetes in fostering empathy in prelicensure nursing students. Batson’s Eight Components of Empathy, Kolb’s Experiential Learning Theory, and Jeffries Simulation Theory provided a theoretical foundation for the study. Demographic data related to gender, race, age, work experience in healthcare, and closeness to a person with diabetes did not show any statistically significant influence on empathy development. However, there was a documented increase in levels of empathy as measured by the Comprehensive State Empathy Scale after the teaching intervention. The paired t-test reported a significant difference between the pretest total (M = 103.7; SD = 17.98) and posttest scores (M = 110.1; SD = 21.11) t(67) = 3.23, p = 0.001, with a small to medium effect size (d = .39 95% CI [2.46 - 10.44]). The core findings of this research contribute to the scholarship of nursing education and theory-based teaching interventions by validating a successful teaching strategy for enhancing empathy.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 768 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this interpretive phenomenological study was to develop a deeper understanding of the strategies and barriers to weaving empathy into simulation pedagogy so stakeholders and educators may be able to develop a blueprint for improving simulation pedagogy and improving empathy levels of nursing students. The conceptual framework that guided this research was the National League of Nursing Jeffries simulation theory (Jeffries, 2016). This investigation used an interpretive phenomenological design consistent with principles originally identified by Heidegger (1927/1962) and a modified hermeneutic analysis further developed by Diekelmann, Allen, and Tanner (1989). Findings from this study indicated that all 14 research participants believed it was important to weave empathy into nursing simulation pedagogy. Strategies identified by the participants to support empathy in simulation pedagogy included cultivating buy-in at many multiple levels, improving the authenticity of the simulation (e.g., using standardized patients or confederates), creating a positive learner-centered environment that is grounded in empathy, utilizing educational and design strategies (e.g., role modeling, reflection, storytelling, and taking the patient’s perspective), training facilitators, scaffolding empathy into the curriculum, and clarifying the concept of empathy. Participants identified several barriers to weaving empathy into simulation pedagogy. These barriers included stakeholders not buying into or valuing empathy, too much content diluting the concept of empathy, resources needed to support weaving empathy being unavailable, facilitators not having proper training, competitive environment clashing with empathy development, participant characteristics limiting empathy development, and the concept of empathy creating confusion. This research also illuminated the need to improve simulation pedagogy and foster empathy in nursing students. Further research opportunities include using different methodologies and exploring different perspectives. In addition, the strategies identified in the present study to cultivate empathy in nursing students could be evaluated to determine their effectiveness.

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.

Download or read book Culturally Competent Compassion written by Irena Papadopoulos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together the crucially important topics of cultural competence and compassion for the first time, this book explores how to practise ‘culturally competent compassion’ in healthcare settings – that is, understanding the suffering of others and wanting to do something about it using culturally appropriate and acceptable caring interventions. This text first discusses the philosophical and religious roots of compassion before investigating notions of health, illness, culture and multicultural societies. Drawing this information together, it then introduces two invaluable frameworks for practice, one of cultural competence and one of culturally competent compassion, and applies them to care scenarios. Papadopoulos goes on to discuss: how nurses in different countries understand and provide compassion in practice; how students learn about compassion; how leaders can create and champion compassionate working environments; and how we can, and whether we should, measure compassion. Culturally Competent Compassion is essential reading for healthcare students and its combination of theoretical content and practice application provides a relevant and interesting learning experience. The innovative model for practice presented here will also be of interest to researchers exploring cultural competence and compassion in healthcare.
