1. INTRODUCTION
  • Continuing education in nursing implies to learning beyond the basic educational programme. These programmer are designed to promote the development of knowledge, skills and attitude for the enhancement of nursing practice, thus improving of the public health.
2. CONCEPT
  • To provide scientific principles and skills  in health care system.
  • To assist the individual or family to achieve their potential for self direction.
  • To bring change in the behavior of professionals in a desirable manner, so that the Nurses become mature, self sufficient, intellectual, culturally refined, socially efficient and spiritually advance.
 3. DEFINITION
  •  “Continuing education is all the learning action that occurs after an individual has completed her basic education” 
  •  “The education which builds on previous education”                                            
4. CHARACTERISTICS OF ADULT LEARNERS
  • Adult learner is responsible, mature  and self-directed.
  • Adults are highly motivated to learn and make voluntary decision to learn.
  • Adult learning is need based.
  • Psychological characteristics also affect on the learning process of adults. Difficulty in reading due to poor eyesight or decline in the physical power limits the learning process of adults.
  • Adult learners are practical and seek problem solutions.
  • Adult have a reservoir of life experiences.
  • Adults need to be convinced, that they too can learn because they feel they are too old to learn.
  • If the learning situations are difficult adults feel easily threatened.
  • Adult learner’s life style revolves around her family and career so the learning is paced accordingly.
  • Adult learner learns effectively in an interactive process.
5. AIMS
  • Improvement of client through upgrading the services rendered with scientific principles.
  • Acquisition of new knowledge, improvement in performance, development of skills.
  • To develop right concept of client care and maintain high standard of nursing.
6. OBJECTIVES

  • To provide and prepare faculty who see continuing nursing education as a personal responsibility as well as professional responsibility.
  • To provide a variety of continuing nursing education opportunities of high quality to nurses in both education and service.
7. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CONTINUING EDUCATION IN NURSING.

Though it is the responsibility of each individual to update her/his knowledge in the area of work but the following are responsible for continuing education for nursing personnel:
             1.   Educational institution ,
             2.   The nurse herself
             3.    Employers
             4.    Professional organization

8. PRINCIPLES OF ADULT LEARNING/CONTINUING EDUCATION IN NURSING
  1. There should be Provision to maintain high quality education for the program through involving    teaching faculty as well as clinical supervisors in planning.
  2. Adequate staffs is essential in planning, implementation and evaluation of program which as an impact on the quality of nursing care process 
  3. Responsibility of the Director of the continuing nursing education :
  • To assess the learners needs & nurse’s population.

  • Regular Teaching Faculty may be assigned to continuing education, but for periods they will get extra remuneration or university faculty may be hired on  contract basis to teach special course .
9. ASSESSMENT OF CONTINUING NURSING EDUCATION
Assessment is done by assessing the :
    1. Needs of education
    2. Priorities of continuing  nursing     education
    3. Resources used to fulfill the goals

1. ASSESSMENT OF NEEDS

It is done by assessing:
  (i)     Needs of organization
  (ii)    Personal needs
  (iii)   Society needs

10. PROCESS OF CONTINUING EDUCATION

PPT ON QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH

QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH Presentation Transcript

1. QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH-WHAT IS IT?
  •   Quantitative research is “an inquiry into a social or human problem based on testing a theory composed of variables, measured with numbers, and analyzed with statistical procedures, in order to determine whether the predictive generalizations of the theory hold true.”
  • Quantitative Research involves “the systematic collection of numeric information, usually under conditions of considerable control and the analysis of that information using statistical procedures”
2. CHARACTERISTICS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
  • Quantitative research is about quantifying the relationships between variables.
  • The researcher knows in advance what he or she is looking for.
  • Goal: Prediction, control, confirmation, test hypotheses.
  • All aspects of the study are carefully designed before data are collected.
  • Quantitative research is inclined to be deductive -- it tests theory. This is in contrast to most qualitative research which tends to be inductive --- it generates theory
  • The researcher tends to remain objectively separated from the subject matter.
3. FEATURES OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
  • Focuses on a relatively small number of specific concepts
  • Begins with preconceived ideas about how the concepts are inter related
  • Uses structured procedures and formal instruments to collect information
  • Collects information under conditions of control
  • Emphasizes objectivity in the collection and analysis of information
  • Analyses numeric information through statistical procedures
  • t is a formal objective, systematic process in which numerical data are utilized to get information about the phenomena
  • Describe variables, examine relationships among variables and determine cause & effect relationships between variables
  • It produces “hard” science that is based on rigor, objective and control. Quantitative researchers believe all human behavior is objective, measurable and purposeful. Only right instrument needed to measure variables
  • Focus is concise & reductionist. Reductionism involves breaking the whole into parts that can be examined
  • It is done to describe, examine relationships and determine causality among variables (cause-effect). Useful in testing theory
  • It involves logistic, deductive, reasoning to make generalizations about the universe. 
  • Requires control (Extraneous variable)
  • Requires use of instruments to collect data that will generate numerical data.
4. MAJOR TYPES OF QUANTITATIVE DESIGNS:

1. Non-experimental research design
  • Descriptive research
  • Cor relational research
  •  Evaluative
  • Meta Analysis
  • Causal-comparative research
2. Experimental research design:
  • True Experimental,
  • Quasi Experimental
I. NON EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH DESIGNS:

 A. Descriptive design:
  •  Descriptive research involves collecting data in order to test hypotheses or answer questions regarding the participants of the study. Data, which are typically numeric, are collected through surveys, interviews, or through observation.
  • In descriptive research, the investigator reports the numerical results for one or more variable(s) on the participants (or unit of analysis) of the study.
B. Cor relational design:
  • Cor relational research attempts to determine whether and to what degree, a relationship exists between two or more quantifiable (numerical) variables.
  •  It is important to remember that if there is a significant relationship between two variables it does not follow that one variable causes the other.  CORRELATION DOES NOT MEAN CAUSATION.
  • When two variables are correlated you can use the relationship to predict the value on one variable for a participant if you know that participant’s value on the other variable.
  • Correlation implies prediction but not causation. The investigator frequently reports the correlation coefficient, and the p-value to determine strength of the relationship.
C. Causal comparative design:
  • Causal-comparative research attempts to establish cause-effect relationships among the variables of the study.
  • The attempt is to establish that values of the independent variable have a significant effect on the dependent variable.
  • This type of research usually involves group comparisons. The groups in the study make up the values of the independent variable, for example gender (male versus female), preschool attendance versus no preschool attendance, or children with a working mother versus children without a working mother.
  • In causal-comparative research the independent variable is not under the researchers control, that is, the researcher can't randomly assign the participants to a gender classification (male or female) or socioeconomic class, but has to take the values of the independent variable as they come. The dependent variable in a study is the outcome variable.
D. Meta Analysis:
  • Meta-analysis is essentially a synthesis of available studies about a topic to arrive at a single summary.
  • From data that is after the fact that has occurred naturally (no interference from the researcher), a hypothesis of possible future correlation is drawn. Correlation studies are not cause and effect, they simply prove a correlation or not (Simon & Francis, 2001).
  • Meta-analysis combines the results of several studies that address a set of related research hypotheses
  • Begins with a systematic process of identifying similar studies.
  • After identifying the studies, define the ones you want to keep for the meta-analysis. This will help another researcher faced with the same body of literature applying the same criteria to find and work with the same studies.
  • Then structured formats are used to key in information taken from the selected studies.
  • Finally, combine the data to arrive at a summary estimate of the effect, it’s 95% confidence interval, and a test of homogeneity of the studies.
II. EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH DESIGN
  • Experimental research like causal-comparative research attempts to establish cause-effect relationship among the groups of participants that make up the independent variable of the study, but in the case of experimental research, the cause (the independent variable) is under the control of the researcher.
  • The researcher randomly assigns participants to the groups or conditions that constitute the independent variable of the study and then measures the effect this group membership has on another variable, i.e. the dependent variable of the study.
  • There is a control and experimental group, some type of “treatment” and participants are randomly assigned to both: Control Group, manipulation, randomization).
A. True Experimental :
Characteristics of true experiments:
  • Manipulation: experimenter does something to at least some subjects.
  • Control: experimenter introduces controls over the experimental situation including use of a control group.
  • Randomization: experimenter assigns subjects to a control or experimental group on a random basis.
B. Quasi & pre experimental designs Quasi experiments
  • Like true experiments, involve the manipulation of an IV, i.e. and intervention.
  • However these designs lack randomization to treatment groups
  • Facilitate search for knowledge and examination of causality in situations in which complete control is not possible
  • Developed to control as many threats to validity as possible.
  • Pre test post test experimental design
5. CONTROL OVER INDEPENDENT VARIABLE
  • Experimental
  • Quasi experimental
  • Pre-experimental
  • Non experimental
6. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGNS:
  • Basic experimental designs :
  • Pre test-post test design (before-after design)
  • Post test only design (after-only design)
  • Solomon four-group design
  • Factorial design
  • Randomized block design
  • Crossover design (repeated measure design)
7. EXPERIMENTAL STRENGTHS
  • Powerful method for testing hypotheses of cause and effect relationships
  • Highest quality evidence regarding effects of specific interventions
  • “If….then” relationship important because of implications for prediction and control.
  • Strength lies in the confidence with which causal relationship in inferred.
  • Through the controls imposed by manipulation, comparison, and randomization, alternative explanations to a causal interpretation can often be ruled out or discredited.
8. EXPERIMENTAL LIMITATIONS
  • Artificiality – Reductionist and artificially constraining human experience.
  • Requirements for randomization and then equal treatment within groups
  • Does not answer ‘Why’ the intervention resulted in the observed outcome (if without a guiding theoretical framework).
  • Difficult to maintain the integrity of the intervention and control conditions if study extends over time.
  • Experimenter does not have control over the clinical environment
  • Treatment may be diluted through non participation
  • Hawthorne effect – Double blind experiments.
9. CONCLUSION:
  • Evidence-based nursing practice comes from the idea that the care we provide be determined by sound research rather than by clinician preference or tradition. Understanding how to select the best design to answer a research question or test a hypothesis is the first step in conducting meaningful research.
  •  This process assists nurses as they read and critique original research articles. Nursing practice is seldom changed based on one study. It is the accumulation of results from several studies, often using different research designs that provide enough evidence for change.

PPT ON POWERPOINT PRESENTATION GUIDELINES

 Download

POWERPOINT PRESENTATION GUIDELINES Presentation Transcript

1. POWERPOINT SLIDE
  • Highlight key points or reinforce what the facilitator is saying
  •  
  • Should be short and to the point, include only key words and phases for visual, reinforcement
  • In order for your presentation to fit on most screens, text and images should be placed within 95% of the PowerPoint slide. This “action safe” area is seen in the next slide.
2. POWERPOINT LAYOUT
  • Layout continuity from frame to frame conveys a sense of completeness
  • Headings, subheadings, and logos should show up in the same spot on each frame
  • Margins, fonts, font size, and colors should be consistent with graphics located in the same general position on each frame
  • Lines, boxes, borders, and open space also should be consistent throughout
  • Fonts   
  • Font Style Should be Readable
  • Recommended fonts: Arial, Tahoma, Veranda
  • Standardize the Font Throughout
  • This presentation is in Tahoma
3. FONT SIZE
  • The larger, the better.  Remember, your slides must be readable, even at the back of the room.
  • This is a good title size Verdana 40 point
  • A good subtitle or bullet point size Verdana 32 point
  • Content text should be no smaller than Verdana 24 point
  • This font size is not recommended for content. Verdana 12 point.
4. FONT SHAPE AND SIZE
  • Combining small font sizes with bold or italics is not recommended:
  • What does this say? Garamond Font, Italic, Bold  12pt.
  • This is very difficult to read. Times Font, Bold, 12pt.
  • This point could be lost. Century Gothic Font, Bold, Italic, 14pt.
  • No one will be able to read this. Gill Sans Font, Condensed Bold, 12pt
  • Small fonts are okay for a footer.
5. FONTS
  • Don’t Sacrifice Readability for Style
  • Don’t Sacrifice Readability for Style
  • Don’t Sacrifice Readability for Style
  • Don’t Sacrifice Readability for Style
6. CAPS AND ITALICS DO NOT USE ALL CAPITAL LETTERS
  • Makes text hard to read
  • Conceals acronyms
  • Denies their use for EMPHASIS
  • Italics
  • Used for “quotes”
  • Used to highlight thoughts or ideas
  • Used for book, journal, or magazine titles
7. USE A TEMPLATE
  • Use a set font and color scheme.
  • Different styles are disconcerting to the audience.
  • You want the audience to focus on what you present, not the way you present.
8. INSTRUCTIONS
  • Use the Same Background on Each Slide
  • Don’t use multiple backgrounds in your presentation
  • Changing the style is distracting
9. COLORS
  • Reds and oranges are high-energy but can be difficult to stay focused on.
  • Greens, blues, and browns are mellower, but not as attention grabbing.
  • Reds and Greens can be difficult to see for those who are color blind.
  • White on dark background should not be used if audience is more than 20 ft away.
  • This set of slides is a good example.
  • You can read the slides up close.
  • The further away you get, the harder it is to read.
  • This is a good color combination if viewed on a computer.
  • A dark background on a computer screen reduces glare.
  • Large Hall Events
  • Avoid White Backgrounds
  • The white screen can be blinding in a dark room
  • Dark Slides with Light Colored Text Work Best
10. THE COLOR WHEEL
  • Colors separated by another color are contrasting colors (complementary)
  • Adjacent colors harmonize with one another (Green and Yellow)
  • Colors directly opposite one another are said to CLASH
  • Clashing colors provide readability
  • Orange on Blue
11. AVOID THESE COMBINATIONS
  • Green on Blue
  • Dark Yellow on Green
  • Purple on Blue
  • Orange on Green
  • Red on Green
12. GRAPHICS AND CHARTS
  • Avoid using graphics that are difficult to read. In this example, the bright colors on a white background and the small font make the graph hard to read. It would be very difficult to see, especially in the back of a room.
  • This graph contains too much information in an unreadable format.
13. ILLUSTRATIONS
  • Use only when needed, otherwise they become distracters instead of communicators
  • They should relate to the message and help make a point
  • Ask yourself if it makes the message clearer
  • Simple diagrams are great communicators
14. POINTS TO REMEMBER   
  • Keep bullet points brief
  • Use the same background for each slide
  • Use dark slides with light colored text in large hall events
15. LIMIT ANIMATION
  • Use the same animation throughout the entire presentation
  • Using more than one can be very distracting
  • The audience will only see the animation and not the message you’re trying to get across
16.YOU
  • Do not use the media to hide you
  • The audience came to SEE you
  • The media should ENHANCE the presentation, not BE the presentation
  • If you’re only going to read from the slides, then just send them the slides!
  • Remember, only you can prevent
         “Death by PowerPoint”

INNOVATION IN NURSING Presentation Transcript

1. INTRODUCTION

In modern world we are confronting with four major problems that have an impact on education.
  • Information Explosion
  • Communication Explosion
  • Information Technology
  • Communication Technology
2. DEFINITION

 Innovation is anything that creates new resources, processes , values or improves a company’s existing resources, processes or values.

3. ROLE OF NURSE IN HEALTH CARE

  In home during child birth and illness . In war caring for the soldiers . In public/community health during epidemics.

4. INNOVATION IN NURSING EDUCATION

1). EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY-
  • Technology is the application of science to the needs of man and society .Educational technology is the application of many fields of science to meet the educational needs of individual and society as a whole.
  • It include the entire process of setting ,goals, continues reforms of curriculum, try out of new methods, materials, evaluation process and innovation.
IMPLICATION OF  TECHNOLOGY
  • Implication on nursing student
  • Implication on nursing educators
  • Implication on educational administration
  • Implication on nursing research
2) TELENURSING 

Introduction
  Telenursing refers to the use of telecommunications and information technology for providing nursing services in health care whenever a large physical distance exists between patient and nurse, or between any number of nurses.

Definition
  “Telenursing” can be defined as using telecommunication devices to provide nursing care, utilising the nursing process to care for individuals or specific patient populations, such as isolated groups of people. Telehealth focuses on delivery management and coordination of services and care.

Principles of Telenursing
  • Engage in this practice to enhance their ability to provide safe,competent,compassionate and ethical care.
  • Augment existing healthcare services. Enhance optimum access,where appropriateand necessary,provide immediate access to health care services.
  • Follow position descriptions that clearly define description of job, role & responsibility
  • Improve and enhance quality of care     responsibilities. .
  • Reduce delivery of unnecessary health services.
  • Protect the confidentiality and security of information related to nurse client interactions.
Future of telenursing 

a) Patient consultations-
These can range from a simple follow-up session after Procedure to discharge planning

b) Patient education
As part of a disease management program, to more involved consultations that involve diagnosis and treatment

c) Remote monitoring
 Devices used by the patient at home can collect and transmit medical data to clinicians for interpretation, so a medical intervention can be planned Education.

d) Career opportunities
   Skills and competencies required by traditional bedside nursing. You’ll still be performing nursing assessments and taking on the role of patient advocate. It’s just that technology adds another piece to the puzzle

3) E-NURSING

 Introduction
 E-nursing management suite is a full fledged solution which automates the day to day processes in your nursing care facilities like-
  •    Patient Application
  •    Admission Process
  •    Tackling daily health status
  •    Staff Rostering
  •    Nurse schedule Inquiry
  •    Daily Nursing Assessment
  •    Patient Billing
Definition
‘’  Capture Patient Bio Data, medical condition and important contact information details. With these, you will be able to ascertain the level of suitability of patient as well as the potential means of your organization in caring for the patient.’’

Facilities

a) Patient administration & management
 Admission preparation, bed assignment, norm charges details, patient care plan management and billing, all these functions can be easily accessed by your team, real-time, anytime, anywhere.

b) Staff postering
   Perform effective planning of staff roster and functional duties scheduling so as to optimise your staff and at the same time, achieve optimal staff to resident ratio.

c) Nurse schedule enquiry
   To lighten the already taxing demand of your healthcare specialists, TaskHub's Nursing Management suite allows  nurses to perform real-time inquiries on tasks required for the shift, instead of having the need to remember what needs to be done. This will allow staff greater control of their tasks for the day and what is the respective status for duties to be carried out

d) Patient billing
   Billing could be performed easily, with human errors being reduced. Hence, based on the norm costs, utilization of consumable items and services, recurring charges, monthly billing could be carried out .

e) Daily nursing assessment
    Critical patient details can be captured real-time and electronically. Designed to meet the common requirements of most inpatient care facilities, documentation of the patients' input ( eg : food, medication) and output ( eg : bowel movements, urine, vomitus ), vital signs like blood pressure, heart rate, etc,
 
4) NURSING INFORMATICS

Informatics
  
Nursing informatics is a specialty that integrates nursing science, computer science, and information science to manage and communicate data, information, knowledge, and wisdom in nursing practice. Nursing informatics facilitates the integration of data, information, knowledge, and wisdom to support patients, nurses, and other providers

Nurse Informaticist-
  • Are expert clinicians with extensive clinical practice background.
  • Experiencing in utilizing and implementing nursing process. Are expert nursing clinicians in utilizing the nursing process.
  • Understand patient care delivery workflow and integration points for automated documentation.
  • Are excellent project managers because of similarity between project management process and nursing process.
5)  FORENSIC NURSING

  A Forensic nurse is a nurse with specialized training in forensic evidence collection, criminal procedures, legal testimony expertise, and more. The Forensic nurse becomes that liason between the medical profession and that of the criminal justice system.

6)  SPACE NURSING  

   The challenge is to have man living and working in a permanently based space station. Nursing is on the threshold of expanding the health care role to man's adaptation in outer space. Elements of man's physiologic and psycho logic responses are involved in determining the most productive use of man and machines in the space environment.

5. NURSING CARE IN SPACE

Nurses can contribute meaningfully in the development of healthcare teams in space using their experience from Earth. For example a group of 64 preoperative and post anesthesia nurses, with an average 10 years experience, were informally asked to prepare a surgical suite in a space station. They had the same concerns found in space literature18 . Although this was informal research, it confirms that nurses can meaningfully contribute to the space program.

PPT ON CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK IN RESEARCH

 Download

 CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK IN RESEARCH Presentation Transcript

1. INTRODUCTION 

Meaning:
  • A Conceptual framework is used in research to outline possible courses of action.
  • It is the researcher’s own position on the problem and gives direction to the study.
2. DEFINITION
  • A written or visual presentation that: “explains either graphically, or in narrative form, the main things to be studied – the key factors, concepts or variables - and the presumed relationship among them”. 
  • It may be an adaptation of a model used in a previous study, with modifications to suit the inquiry. 
3. NATURE OF FRAMEWORKS 

All theoretical & conceptual frameworks are:
  • Abstractions
  • Mental images
  • Conceptions
  • Ways of looking at reality
4. HOW MIGHT A CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK BE DEVELOPED?
  • The pieces of the conceptual framework are borrowed but the researcher provides the structure. To develop the structure you could:
  • Identify the key words used in the subject area of your study.
  • Draw out the key things.
  • Take one key concept, idea or term at a time and brainstorm all the other things that might be related and select those that seem most relevant.
  •  Focus is both on the content and the inter-relationships.
  • Started early in the development of the framework but refinement is the last step
  • To develop a map arrange the concepts on the page in sequence of occurrence from left to right
  •  with outcome concepts located on the far right
  • Link concepts using arrows indicating path of relationship
5. INSTRUCTIONS TO WRITE A CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
  • Decide what sort of medical research you want to conduct. Experiments requiring drug tests or other scientific investigation are best done with the quantitative method. If your nursing research involves people, opt for the qualitative approach.
  • Identify the thesis statement of your research and write it in a circle in the middle of a piece of paper. Draw lines away from the center and make circles to record your secondary ideas. Use colored pencils if they help you articulate your thoughts .
  • Create a different diagram---a spider or a hierarchy---.The shape is of secondary concern; it is generating the ideas for the conceptual framework that counts.
  • Highlight the gaps, connections and contradictions in your conceptual framework. Leave it alone for a while and then revisit the design to see if it suits your nursing research project or it you need to add additional material
  • Review the ethical regulations of nursing research and make sure your conceptual framework fits within the guidelines. The conceptual framework of your nursing research will be reviewed by a board to examine the privacy and involvement of others.
  •  Meet with your supervisor to review your conceptual framework. An experienced medical researcher may be able to identify points you missed in your conceptual framework and make suggestions on how you could improve it.
6.CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORKS PROVIDE RESEARCHERS WITH:
  • The ability to move beyond descriptions to explanations means ‘what’ to ‘why’ and ‘how’.
  • A means of setting out an explanation set that might be used to define and make sense of the data that flow from the research question
  • A filtering tool for selecting appropriate research questions and related data collection methods
  • A reference point for the discussion of the literature, methodology and results
  • Provide boundaries of the work
7. LIMITATIONS/DEMERITS OF CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORKS
  • Influenced by the experience and knowledge of the individual – initial bias
  • Once developed will influence the researcher’s thinking and may result in some things being given prominence and others being ignored – ongoing bias
  • The solution is to revisit the conceptual framework, particularly at the end when evaluating your work
8. CONCEPTUAL MODELS AND THEORIES USED IN NURSING RESEARCH
  1. Orem’s self care model (1985)
  2. Orem’s (1995)
  3. Imogene King’s General System’s framework (1971)
  4. Imogene King’s Open System Model(1981)
  5. Roy’s Adaptation Model
  6. Pender’s Health Model
  7. Margret Newman’s theory
  8. Betty Neuman theory  etc.

NURSING ASSIGNMENT  Presentation Transcript

1. DEFINITION:
  •  It is that part of learning experience where the students are assigned with patients or other activities concerning to patients in clinical laboratory.
  • Clinical assignments are a very important part of nursing education as they put the classroom learning into practice.
  •  Clinical assignments can be challenging, demanding ,enable to arouse interest , stimulating for good study habits & positive attitudes in student nurses.
2. OBJECTIVES
  • To provide the patient with best possible nursing care.
  • To stimulate the professional growth.
  • To provide a well rounded educational experience for student nurses.
  • Achieving good ward management.
3. METHODS OF CLINICAL ASSIGNMENTS
  1. Patient Method
  2. Functional Method
  3. Team Method
4. PATIENT METHOD

In this a nurse is expected to give complete nursing care to one or more patients including general nursing measures, treatments, mediation, taking temperature, pulse, respiration & giving health instructions etc.

Advantages:
  •  Patients have security & belongingness.
  • Interpersonal relationship is good.
  • The maximum learning take place.
Disadvantages:
  •  More nurses are required
 5. FUNCTIONAL METHOD
  • Nurses are assigned to specific functions in the ward such as giving medication or treatment to all patients, taking the temperature of all or giving general nursing care to a group of individuals.
  •  The functional method may be used at some period of the day such as evening and nights when a few nurses are on duty
Advantages:
  •  More efficiency is there due to skill development when same work is done repeatedly by one.
Disadvantages:
  • Individual needs are not considered.
  • Nurses don’t get job satisfaction.
  • Interpersonal relationship is very poor.
6. TEAM METHOD

In this method a group of patients are looked after by a group of hospital staff and students. Nursing care is given to the patient with team conference by all the members of team. The professional is the leader. The members may be graduates, student nurses & other nursing personals

Advantages:
  •  Team spirit is created in the team.
  • Attitude of cooperation & coordination is learnt.
Disadvantages:
  •  If there is no cooperation within the team members then work will not be done properly and patient will suffer.
7. PRINCIPLES OF CLINICAL ASSIGNMENT
  • There should be proper rotation of all areas by all according to curriculum plan.
  • First year students should be posted where they will receive the maximum supervision & guidance from qualified nursing staff.
  • The individual student differences should also be kept in mind.
  • Proper record maintenance should be there for the total no. of  hours in each area & all others like leaves availed by students, reposting etc.
8. CRITERIA FOR EFFECTIVE ASSIGNMENT
  •  Students are to be informed about objectives of their assignment.
  • Students are to be oriented to new clinical area.
  • Students are to given facilities to practice nursing according to principles taught
  • Only recognized wards or community areas are to be selected for students.
  • Only recognized wards or community areas are to be selected for students.
  • Assignment should be given according to the level of learning of students.
  • Proper guidance & supervision has to be provided.
  • Sufficient time to be provided to carry out the assignment allotted to students.
  • Students should be given opportunity for working in a team & to develop a pride in the nursing profession.
  • Students’ performance should be evaluated consistently.

QUALITATIVE RESEARCH Presentation Transcript:

1. INTRODUCTION

Nurse Researchers have demonstrated their expertise in quantitative research & revealed it’s usefulness for clients for many years.
The traditional focus on individual & holistic nature of the person in nursing system is more consistent with Qualitative Research philosophy.

2. QUALITATIVE RESEARCH
  • Individual’s perspective is very important.
  • Involves in-depth understanding of human behavior
  • Data is collected in descriptive rather than numerical form
  • Data is analyzed by descriptive coding, indexing & narrations
  • It focuses on understanding individual’s perception of events
  • Qualitative Research is a way of thinking, seeing & conceptualizing. (Morse, 2005)
  • Qualitative Research is interested in discovery of emergent themes rather the statistical analysis of data. (Soldwisch, 2004)
  • While the Qualitative Researcher attempts to obtain rich, real, deep & valid data, the Quantitative Researcher aims for  hard, replicable & reliable data
  • Qualitative Researcher is not limited by existing theories but rather must be open to new ideas & new theories
3. MAIN FEATURES OF QUALITATIVE RESEARCH
  • Concerned with the opinions, experiences & feelings of individuals producing subjective data
  • It describes social phenomenon as it occurs naturally
  • Understanding of a situation is gained gradually through a holistic perspective
  • Data is time consuming and is collected through interviews or observation.
  • Time consuming nature of data collection necessitates the use of small sample
4. DEVELOPING CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK IN QUALITATIVE RESEARCH

Concepts:-
  • A concept is a word, picture or mental idea of a phenomenon.
  • A concept can be very concrete such as human heart or may be very abstract such as love
  • Concepts are building blocks of the theory
Propositions:--
  •  A proposition is a statement or assertion of the relationship between concepts.
  • Propositional statements are derived from theories or from generalizations based on empirical data.
  • A propositional statement may indicate the relationship concepts in several ways for e.g.. There is a relationship between pulse rate & respiratory rate.
5. WHAT IS A THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK?
  • Systematic ordering of ideas about the phenomenon being investigated or as a systematic account of the relations among a set of variables
  • Examination of discipline- based literature related to topic & identifying an overarching theory that explains the central hypothesis or propositions
6. CONCEPTUAL MODELS
  • Conceptual models are made up of concepts & propositions that states the relationship between the concepts
  • These concepts are generally very abstract and are not readily observable in the empirical world.
  • Conceptual models in nursing present broad general concepts of interest in nursing
7. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
  • A theoretical framework is based on propositional statements from one theory, whereas a conceptual framework links concepts from several theories, from previous results or from researcher’s own experience.
  • In developing a conceptual framework the researcher relates concepts in a logical manner to form propositional statements  
8. CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK AND QUALITATIVE RESEARCH
  • Phenomenologist are guided in their inquiry by framework or philosophy that focuses their analysis on certain aspects of a person’s life world. That framework is based on the premise that human experience is an inherent property of the experience itself, not constructed by an outside observer. For  e.g. Experiences of mothers of suicidal adolescents
  • Ethnographers typically bring a strong cultural perspective to their studies, and this perspective shapes their initial fieldwork. They usually adopt one or two cultural theories. They interview people who are most knowledgeable about the culture. For e.g.  Gance (2004) examined the features, critical attributes processes & benefits of school based support groups for adolescents with an addicted parent.
  • Grounded theory methods are designed to facilitate the generation of theory that is conceptually dense, that is with many conceptual patterns and relationships.
  • The goal of ground theory researchers is to develop a conceptualization of a phenomenon that is grounded in actual observations.
  • Theory development in a grounded theory study is an inductive process
 9. QUALITATIVE RESEARCH :THEORY EMERGES FROM RESEARCH
  • Researcher finds a setting of interest & enters it to make observations (gathers data)
  • Initial analysis of the data leads to a series of questions that guide subsequent data
  • Further analysis produces tentative categories, trends or patterns emerging within the data
  • Further analysis reveals patterns or themes. The theme is in effect, a substantive theory.
  • Analysis of emergent themes produces an operational theory, which can then be compared to other theories
  • For e.g. Williams (2005) study on the personal control and emotional comfort of hospitalized patients
10. EVALUATIVE CRITERIA FOR THEORY DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH{SILVIA AND SORRELL-1992}
  • The purpose of the study is to verify relationship of described personal experiences to philosophical beliefs and assumptions that underline the development of nursing theory.
  • Identification of the research questions is based on the attempt to provide elaboration of concepts related to the developing nursing theory.
  • The primary data sources include sufficient in-depth description of personal experiences to capture the essence of the phenomenon under investigation
  •  Simplicity, ethical integrity, and aesthetic presentation are integral characteristics of the described personal experiences.
  • Analysis of data incorporates a sense of wholeness of the described personal experiences.
  • Formative hypotheses and/or theories are derived inductively from qualitative analysis of the described personal experiences.
  • Multiple personal experiences of the individual and/or similar personal experiences of several individuals about a particular phenomenon are used to validate the derived hypothesis
  • Analytic procedure of data analysis and fit of the generated concepts to the personal experiences provide indirect evidence of the validity (or lack thereof) of the developed nursing theory.
  • Findings are discussed in terms of how they are related to the theories developed and tested inductively; both the developing end existing theories must be internally consistent and congruent with one another.
11. FACTS ABOUT FRAMEWORK DEVELOPMENT
  • It depends on the power of observation, understanding of a problem, imagination and conceptualization about abstract ideas and ability of linking the abstract ideas with logical scheme to generalize the facts.
  • Frameworks are usually developed through inductive reasoning, where the researcher has the ability to observe and conceptualize to generalize the facts. It involves integrating the observed or experienced facts to draw a conclusion.
  • To develop a framework, concepts may be borrowed from personal real-life experiences, findings of the previous research, and concepts of existing theories or theoretical models.
  • A theoretical framework is developed on the basis of theoretical concepts which are related to particular research study variables.
  • Conceptual frameworks are constructed on the basis of researcher’s own experience in respective field, and findings of the previous study or the concepts of the several existing theories.
  • Conceptual frameworks are constructed on the basis of researcher’s own experience in respective field, and findings of the previous study or the concepts of the several existing theories.
12. STEPS IN DEVELOPING CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

Identification of the general concepts
  •  These concepts may be based on study variables, previous research findings’ existing theories or real life observations
Gathering relevant information
  •  This may be gathered from existing theories or previous research findings. It helps develop relationship between concepts for development of framework
Formulation of general scheme of relevant concepts
  •  Researcher starts developing schematic relationship between different related & relevant concepts 
  • Development of a logical construct
  •  Construct is a highly abstract , complex description of a phenomenon that cannot be directly observed for e.g. wellness
Evaluation and revision
  •   Concepts & constructs are evaluated for their relevance & relationship to conclude & generalize the facts
Establishment of the congruity
  •   Congruity of framework may only be established, if most of the research decisions & interpretations of the study findings are based on the framework

METHODS OF CLINICAL TEACHING Presentation Transcript

1.INTRODUCTION

    Nursing education is a practice discipline. The students will learn the subject matter by doing the things and practicing the skills. Clinical teaching will provide the places where the actual clients are being cured for. Learning experiences require the presence of clinical instructor, guide, reinforce and correct the behavior of the learners.

2. DEFINITION

Clinical teaching methods refer to the logical course of actions to accomplish particular educational goals in a specific environment in which students can get opportunities of learning outcomes.

3. SELECTION OF METHODS

It should be based on expected outcomes, principles of teaching, learning and learners. Teaching strategies in clinical settings are unique.

4. WHO CAN PARTICIPATE

Various members of health team can take part in clinical teaching program such as doctors, head nurse, staff nurse and clinical instructor etc.

HOW TO SUPPORT THESE METHODS-
Well planned ward teaching program provides a valuable contribution to the students. Educational objectives are clear to all members who are taking part in ward teaching. It should be4 an integral part of Nursing Curriculum. 

5. CLASSIFICATION OF THE CLINICAL TEACHING METHODS

There are various clinical teaching methods to make the learning more effective. Some of the most commonly used clinical teaching methods are as follows-
1.   Nursing Care Plan
2.   Nursing Case Study
3.   Bedside Clinics
4.   Nursing Rounds
5.   Nursing Care Conference
6.   Group Conference
7.   Individual Conference
8.   Demonstration and Re-demonstration
9.   Process Recording
10. Clinical Assignment

6. NURSING CARE PLAN
  • The nursing care plan is used to provide a guide to patient care.
  • Plan is made based on priority, as the nursing needs are vary from patient to patient and it should be based as per his need.
  • Nursing care plan is a projected plan and is for immediate and future use.
  • Nursing care plan helps students provide more competent and need based care.
  • Students are required to write the care plan implement, evaluate and modify to meet the patients needs.
  • Student can discuss the plan with the clinical instructor regarding intervention and rational for the care.
7. ROLE OF TEACHER
  • To guide the discussion.
  • Correct any wrong concepts.
  • Give additional information to meet the objectives.
  • To evaluate the student’s level of knowledge and skills and their actual applications in nursing.
ADVANTAGES
  • Better nursing care due to efforts of students.
  • Student gain greater understanding of human psychology.
  • It helps to understand the effects the disease on the patient and family.
  • Student can learn problem solving approach.

8. BEDSIDE CLINIC:MEANING AND CONCEPT
  • It’s a method of clinical teaching where patient’s medical history and therapies are discussed in brief followed by identification of patient’s problem.
  • Bedside clinic is one of the most effective method of clinical teaching. New knowledge is acquired through observation and study of the actual patient.

9. METHODS OF BEDSIDE OF CLINICS
  1. Clinic can be held at the bedside or can bring the patient to the classroom near the ward.
  2. Patient should have typical condition.
  3. Duration usually 30 minutes.
  4. Group of students should be small. (6-8).
  5. Make the patient comfortable.
  6. Prior permission should always be taken from patient.
  7. Patient may requested to talk about family, onset of disease and signs and symptoms.
  8. Patient not present for entire discussion.
  9. Nursing care, patient’s problems and treatment therapies all to discussed before he is brought to ward classroom.
  10. Nothing should be done to hurt patient’s feelings.
  11. Clinical instructor may lead the discussion.
  12. After this group interact with the patient and patient allowed to go to his bed.
  13. Topic summarized, important points emphasized and evaluation done by the clinical instructor.   
10. NURSING ROUNDS MEANING

Very important methods mainly used by ward sister, clinical instructor for clinical teaching. Large group of patients are discussed for their specific problems. Medical and nursing care given at bedside. This method helps us to know all the patients in ward. Their bed to bed discussion about patients problems and solutions.

PURPOSES
Encourage teaching among students about various cases in the ward.
Enhances student knowledge about different patients.

TIMINGS FOR NURSING ROUNDSIt should not interfere with the ward routine.
It is not conducted during doctor’s and time for patient’s medical care.

11. HOW TO CONDUCT NURSING ROUNDS
  • Usually conducted by ward sister, clinical instructor as they know each patient’s problem more intimately.
  • Students should be informed before hand.
  • Bedside patient round should be stopped briefly for a short discussion about specific nursing problem.
  • Instructor/ward sister may call upon any nurse to tell about the patient and nursing care given.
  • Nursing round timings up to 40-50 minutes and attendance of all students are required.
  • Whole ward/unit has to be covered in this brief weekly summary of nursing problem.   
12. VALUES OF NURSING ROUNDS
  • Helps in arousing students interest to read the history of all patients, review disease conditions, medications, doses, actions and side effects etc.
  • Encourage discussion among students about various cases in the ward.
  • Head Nurse/Clinical Instructor to test the student’s knowledge of all the patients.
  • No other type of round is substitute for nursing rounds. 
13. NURSING CARE CONFERENCE : HOW IS IT PLANNED
  • It is same as bedside clinic but patient usually not present.
  • This method may be used when whole group well acquainted with the patient and the group have nothing to do for the patient.
  • Group members must have opportunity to know patient, read patient history, progress notes, nurses notes and laboratory findings and the treatment of the diseases. 
14. GROUP  CONFERENCE: DEFINITION
  • It is a method of clinical teaching. Group of students and clinical instructor need for a discussion of patients problem. Group should not be more than 10-12 students. Each student can get a chance of participation.
15. ROLE OF CLINICAL INSTRUCTOR
  • Clinical Instructor act as a leader, she must be sensitive to the group for all things which show the attitude of the group members.
  • She need to have patience and should not answer the questions  too quickly, but wait for students answers.
  • She should be able to guide the students.
  • Correct wrong interpretations and should be given time to complete sentence.
  • Subject/area should be closely related student’s daily experience in the department.
  • Students are guided in solving nursing problems.
  • The success of this type of teaching depends upon the topic chosen for discussion.
16. SUBJECT FOR GROUP CONFERENCE
  • Orientation of a new students to the department.
  • Nursing care needs of a particular patients or group of patients.
  • Conference on Nursing procedures, eg. Records, Report writing, intake and output charting, preparing patient for surgery etc.
