This book was released on 2014 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Capstone project evaluated the impact of a simulation-based learning experience on nursing students' anxiety levels, preparedness for psychiatric practicum, and stereotypical views towards individuals with mental illness. A sample of 15 bachelor level nursing students was utilized. The experimental group (n=8) was exposed to a four-hour simulation-based learning experience prior to the beginning of their clinical experience. The control group (n=7) began their clinical rotation without any simulation exposure. A pretest, posttest design utilizing the Mental Health Nursing Survey Part 1 (MHN-1) and the Mental Health Nursing Survey Part 2 (MHN-2) was used to measure the students' stereotypical views, anxiety levels, and feelings of preparedness. This study revealed that a simulation-based learning experience did not have an effect on the nursing students' levels of anxiety or feelings of preparedness. Clinical and theory positively impacted the students' feelings of preparedness and levels of anxiety and negatively impacted perceptions of mental health nurses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negative clinical educational experiences for student nurses are predictors of negative attitudes and perceptions towards mental health. In clinical education, instructors take on this important role often with little to no formal training. This qualitative descriptive inquiry was grounded in a constructivist conceptual framework, with the aim of exploring what students perceived as best practices for mental health clinical instructors. Data from semi-structured interviews was collected from 10 Canadian baccalaureate of nursing (BN) students. Through thematic analysis of the data, three themes emerged. First, students valued feeling prepared at the beginning of the clinical placement. Second, students felt empowered when instructors encouraged self-direction. Third, students appreciated positive role modeling by their instructors. Suggestions for clinical teaching strategies are made to mitigate student stress, increase confidence, and address the influence of mental health stigma on learning. The research contributes to the conceptualization of best practices for clinical instruction.

Book excerpt: "Mental health nursing is a distinct specialty in the nursing profession. However, research has consistently shown the field of mental health nursing is not a popular career choice. In addition, the mental health nursing field is facing a significant shortage of nurses. Understanding what attracts and retains nurses to this nursing specialty is needed to aid in recruitment and retention and to ensure there will be enough qualified mental health nurses in the future to provide care for those needing mental health care services. The purpose of this study was to explore mental health perceptions of the career choice and identify what factors and/influences, if any, encouraged the decisions to choose mental health nursing or to remain employed in mental health nursing. A qualitative research design using a descriptive online survey and individual interviews was used to explore mental health nurses' perceptions of the career choice of mental health nursing. Findings from the survey and interviews revealed themes as to why mental health nurses chose a career in and stay in mental health nursing, what factors influenced these decisions, and the image of mental health nursing. Recommendations for future studies in mental health nursing included replicating the study with a larger sample size and a variety of mental health facilities, an analysis of the current U.S. mental health nursing workforce, and how nursing school experiences affect students' perceptions of mental health nursing"-- Abstract from thesis.

Book excerpt: Stigma of mental illness is an ongoing issue in the community and healthcare that affects the mentally ill and their families. Nurses are treating people with mental illness in their practice in various settings. As nursing students are being introduced to the nursing profession, it is important have a clear conceptualization of mental illness. Stigma and attitudes about mental illness can be detrimental to a patient’s recovery. The purpose of this study was to examine changes in the attitudes and stigma of accelerated BSN students prior to and completion of a theory and clinical psychiatric mental health-nursing course. This study explored how exposure and education and clinical experience in psychiatric mental health nursing can effect change in attitudes of accelerated undergraduate nursing students about people with a mental illness. The research question was “Is there a positive difference between perceptions of stigma and attitudes of mental illness prior to and following completion of psychiatric mental health theory and clinical course?” A convenience sample was recruited from a southern California accelerated baccalaureate nursing program. A total of 71 students participated in the study before and after taking a mental health theoretical and practicum course. The instruments used to measure stigma of mental illness was the Community Attitudes of the Mentally Ill (CAMI) scale. The dependent variable of the stigma and attitudes of undergraduate nursing students using the CAMI scale did not show statistically significant results. Individual statements in the CAMI resulted in statistically significant difference.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health Promotion is a relatively new discipline and there is little in the way of practical help for students and practitioners in choosing and implementing appropriate evaluation methods. As the demands for rigorous evaluation and evidence-based decision-making increase, health promotion cannot ignore the need for accurate, reliable and valid methods to carry out evaluation. This book provides clear descriptions (with plentiful practical examples) of such methods, and the problems that can arise from their implementation. Both qualitative and quantitative methods that are commonly used are described and the problems and benefits that arise with their use are explained. Experiences in the practical implementation of evaluation are explained, with examples from a variety of different social, economic and cultural contexts. The third edition of this highly successful book has been fully revised and updated to reflect the ongoing developments in the field of health promotion. It will appeal to students and practitioners in health promotion and public health (including programme managers in both the government and the voluntary sector), and donors and funding agencies who commission health promotion interventions and evaluations.
