Care Technology

Technology is an integrated presence between science and machines. Information technology in nursing includes knowledge, attitudes and skills. These three things are needed by a health care profession in their daily work. The ability of nurses to use nursing technology is a form of caring. Nurse caring behavior is very important in fulfilling patient satisfaction, therefore students' understanding of technology as a form of caring in nursing needs to be instilled since the period of education. The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between the technological skill competency in nursing and caring of nursing profession students. The research method used in this study is correlation analytic with cross sectional approach. Questionnaire was utilized to gather the needed data and information. The subjects of this study were 90 nursing students, total sampling was applied to gained participants. Respondents met the inclusion criteria, namely studying at STIKes in the Surabaya region, being willing to be respondents, and graduating a bachelor's degree in nursing, a maximum of one year before continuing to Ners profession student. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between the ability to use technology (medical devices) and caring of Ners professional students (p = 0.000; r = 0.630. There was a significant relationship between the ability to use technology (Information and Communication Technology) and caring (p = 0.000; r = 0.469). The ability to use technology makes nurses understand the patient as a whole or holistic human. If the nurse understands the patient completely then he will understand all aspects of the patient as a unique person, this will help patients to develop and accelerate the healing process. The ability of nurses to use technology is an expression of caring in nursing, where caring and technology are an integral part. Technology plays an important role in health care, technology is used to improve patient safety, save lives patient and support nurses in their job. Teaching caring from the time of education is very important because this is the first stage for nursing students to learn the value and meaning of the nursing profession.

Part Time

Background: Future health-care professionals face stress both during education and in later professional life. Next to educational trainings, many students are forced to assume part-time employment. Objective: Applying the Job Demands-Resources Model to the educational context, we investigate which role part-time employment plays next to health-care professional students’ education-specific demands and resources in the prediction of perceived stress. Method: In this cross-sectional study, data from N = 161 health-care students were analysed, testing moderation models. Results: Education-specific demands were associated with higher and education-specific resources with lower amounts of perceived stress. Part-time employment functioned as moderator, i.e. demands were less associated with stress experiences in students who were employed part-time. Conclusion: Identifying part-time employment as a resource rather than a demand illustrates the need to understand students’ individual influences on stress. Both educators and students will benefit from reflecting these resources to support students’ stress management.

Perceptions And Attitudes

Background As the evidence based practice (EBP) movement expands, there is a need for health leaders and educators in each country to assess the extent to which health professional students and practitioners are prepared to locate, evaluate, and apply evidence to guide their practice.Objective The study objective was to explore nurses’ and nursing students’ perceptions and attitudes towards EBP.Method This was a descriptive cross-sectional survey administered to all 273 nurses and nursing students from Nepal who attended an EBP conference. The survey instrument that was used by Majid in Singapore was adapted for use in this study with permission from the author.Result In total, 121 nurses participated in the study. The majority (93%) of respondents reported that they had no previous training in EBP. The respondents’ perceptions of their EBP knowledge and skills were variable, but most of them demonstrated positive attitudes toward EBP. Respondents identified a number of barriers that limit the implementation of EBP in Nepal. The greatest barriers were lack of time and resources, difficulty understanding research articles and translating the findings to practice, and limited autonomy to change practice based on evidence.Conclusion Although respondents had positive attitudes towards EBP, their knowledge and skills were limited and barriers to implementation existed. Nursing faculty can use the findings to guide implementation of EBP into curricula, and nursing administrators and clinicians can use the findings to guide practice to promote EBP.

Background: Advice from health care professionals (HCPs) is critical for tobacco prevention and cessation efforts. The academic curricula for health care professional students (HCS) lack comprehensive training in assisting patients in tobacco cessation. Tobacco use among HCP’s deters them from giving proper tobacco prevention and cessation guidance. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and determinants of tobacco consumption in third-year students of four health care disciplines (medical, dental, pharmacy, and nursing) and to assess their undergraduate education on tobacco control and cessation. Methods:  A web-based survey (response rate 84.4%) employing the Global Health Professions Student Survey (GHPSS) questionnaire; n= 838; [20.89 (SD± 0.94) years] was conducted in Mysore, India. A descriptive, comparative and multivariate analysis was performed. Results: The number of students who received formal training in smoking cessation approaches was only 14.04%. In total, two-thirds of medical students, compared to 38.9% of dental, 29.7% of pharmacy, and 11.40 % of nursing students, learned “the reasons why people smoke” as a part of their formal training. However, only less than a quarter of the study population were aware of the role of antidepressants in nicotine cessation medications. The total prevalence of tobacco use was 28.9%. A total of 37.72% wanted to quit smoking, while a mere 1.2% had sought any professional help to do so. Conclusions: Tobacco use in HCS, apart from personal health risks to themselves, may potentially affect their future commitment to support patients in tobacco cessation. There is a need for further research into tobacco prevention and cessation programs tailored to the needs of student groups. There is a need for an updated curriculum for tobacco cessation strategies and more research into better cessation strategies.
