The purpose of this evaluation study was to examine the longitudinal impact of implementation of Duffy’s Quality Caring Model© on patients’ perceptions of nurse caring on medical, surgical, and telemetry units in a community hospital. Data collection points included pre implementation, and 6 months, 10 months, and 22 months post implementation. After each data collection point, nurse leaders developed interventions based on Duffy’s Quality Caring Model© to improve scores. Findings demonstrated higher patient perception of nurse caring scores at each data collection point and on each nursing unit.

By applying four analytic models with comparable outcomes and covariates to a dataset of 20 outcomes from 17 educational trials, we found results closely matching in well-powered studies without serious implementation problems. The interventions and evaluations were all funded by the Education Endowment Foundation and independently evaluated. We demonstrated that when an analysis takes little account of research design, or where there were difficulties with implementation and data collection, point estimates of effect differ and estimates of precision vary. This adds to the challenge of understanding the comparative impact of interventions and deciding which are worth scaling up.

Collection Point

Chapter 9 illustrates the circumstances of the authors’ street-involved youth sample at the time of the last data collection point, further implications of early life trauma, and the unfairness of social policy, with suggestions for helping street-involved youth reintegrate into mainstream social institutions more easily. The youth at this point in their lives were either stable and engaged, stable and unengaged, unstable and engaged, or unstable and unengaged. Only youth in the last category were truly in difficulty, but youth in the other three categories were often left out of supports that other young people take for granted. This points to the mismatch between age and social structure, and in part this is a consequence of education, work, and social services not being responsive to their life circumstances or focused on short-term goals rather than inclusion.

The article describes a program evaluation study of a special English as a Second Language program conducted by the Calgary Board of Education entitled CORE-ESL. This program was developed to meet the needs of a group of 18 to 21 year olds with a severe gap in their schooling due to political upheaval and war. The program was funded for a one-year period by a local foundation which requested that an external evaluation be conducted. The study was designed as a naturalistic model involving five stages of data collection and participant involvement. These five stages are described and study recommendations and outcomes are outlined. A composite student profile, developed in the study, is appended to the article.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi pelaksanaan perkuliahan pengajaran mikro di sebuah program studi PGSD di Nusa Tenggara. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian evaluasi program berdasarkan model Robert E. Stake terhadap tiga kelas pengajaran mikro yang dianalisis secara kualitatif. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah observasi, dokumentasi, dan wawancara. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pengajaran mikro di program studi PGSD yang menjadi subyek penelitian adalah a) pada komponen antecedent; persiapan pembelajaran sudah dilaksanakan dengan cukup baik yaitu dosen menyusun silabus dan instrumen penilaian tetapi belum menyusun RPP/RPS, sarana prasarana pembelajaran tersedia cukup lengkap tetapi laboratorium pembelajaran belum sesuai standar ketersediaan laboratorium micro teaching yang benar; b) pada komponen transactions pelaksanaan pembelajaran belum dilengkapi modul, namun pembelajaran dilaksanakan cukup baik dengan strategi pembelajaran teori dan praktik, menggunakan metode ceramah, diskusi, penugasan dan pembelajaran daring; c) pada komponen outcomes, hasil belajar dari rata-rata nilai adalah 77,18 dan sudah memenuhi KKM.This study aims to evaluate the implementation of micro teaching lectures in a PGSD study program in Nusa Tenggara. This research is a program evaluation study based on the Robert E. Stake model of three micro teaching classes which were analyzed qualitatively. The data collection techniques used were observation, documentation, and interviews. The results of this study indicate that the micro teaching in the PGSD study program which is the subject of research is a) on the antecedent component; learning preparation has been carried out quite well, namely lecturers compile syllabus and assessment instruments but have not compiled RPP/RPS, learning infrastructure is quite complete, but learning laboratories are not in accordance with the standards of the correct availability of micro teaching laboratories; b) in the transactions component, the implementation of learning is not equipped with modules, but learning is carried out quite well with theoretical and practical learning strategies, using lectures, discussions, assignments and online learning methods; c) in the outcomes component, the learning result from the average score is 77.18 and has met the KKM.

This study aims to examine the effect of work discipline in improving nurse performance and to examine the mediating role of motivation. The study used a quantitative approach at the Syarifah Ambami Rato Ebu Bangkalan Regional Hospital. Data collection using a questionnaire to 72 nurses as respondents. The research variables consisted of work discipline, nurse performance and motivation as mediating variables. Data analysis using Path Analysis. The results showed that work discipline has a positive and significant effect on nurses' performance; Work discipline has a positive and significant effect on nurses' motivation, then nurses' motivation has a positive and significant effect on nurses' performance. So motivation plays a role in mediating the effect of work discipline on nurse performance.

BACKGROUND In the second half of 2014, the first case of Ebola virus disease (EVD) was diagnosed in the United States. During this time period, we were collecting data for the Measuring Network Stability and Fit (NetFIT) longitudinal study, which used social network analysis (SNA) to study relationships between nursing staff communication patterns and patient outcomes. One of the data collection sites was a few blocks away from where the initial EVD diagnosis was made. The EVD public health emergency during the NetFIT data collection time period resulted in the occurrence of a natural experiment. OBJECTIVE The objectives of the NetFIT study were to examine the structure of nursing unit decision-making and information-sharing networks, identify a parsimonious set of network metrics that can be used to measure the longitudinal stability of these networks, examine the relationship between the contextual features of a unit and network metrics, and identify relationships between key network measures and nursing-sensitive patient-safety and quality outcomes. This paper reports on unit communication and outcome changes that occurred during the EVD natural disaster time period on the 10 hospital units that had data collected before, during, and after the crisis period. METHODS For the NetFIT study, data were collected from nursing staff working on 25 patient care units, in three hospitals, and at four data collection points over a 7-month period: Baseline, Month 1, Month 4, and Month 7. Data collection was staggered by hospital and unit. To evaluate the influence of this public health emergency on nursing unit outcomes and communication characteristics, this paper focuses on a subsample of 10 units from two hospitals where data were collected before, during, and after the EVD crisis period. No data were collected from Hospital B during the crisis period. Network data from individual staff were aggregated to the nursing unit level to create 24-hour networks and three unit-level safety outcome measures—fall rate, medication errors, and hospital-acquired pressure ulcers—were collected. RESULTS This analysis includes 40 data collection points and 608 staff members who completed questionnaires. Participants (N=608) included registered nurses (431, 70.9%), licensed vocational nurses (3, 0.5%), patient care technicians (133, 21.9%), unit clerks (28, 4.6%), and monitor watchers (13, 2.1%). Changes in SNA metrics associated with communication (ie, average distance, diffusion, and density) were noted in units that had changes in patient safety outcome measures. CONCLUSIONS Units in the hospital site in the same city as the EVD case exhibited multiple changes in patient outcomes, network communication metrics, and response rates. Future research using SNA to examine the influence of public health emergencies on hospital communication networks and relationships to patient outcomes is warranted.
