A study of the role and educational needs of ophthalmic specialist nurses.

AIMS: To explore the current roles, responsibilities and educational needs of ophthalmic specialist nurses (OSNs) in the UK. METHOD: A survey of 73 OSNs ranging from band 4 to band 8 was undertaken in May 2018. FINDINGS: 73% of OSNs undertake more than one active role, with 59% involved in nurse-led clinics; 63% felt formal learning resources were limited, with 63% reporting training opportunities and 21% reporting time as major barriers to further training. More than 38% emphasised hands-on clinic-based teaching had a greater impact on their educational needs. Some 64% were assessed on their skills annually and 59% felt confident with their skill set. CONCLUSION: The Ophthalmic Common Clinical Competency Framework provides a curriculum and assessment tools for OSNs to use as a structure to maintain clinical skills and knowledge. Eye departments should use this as guidance to target learning needs and improve standards of care to meet the changing needs of society.

Bienestar subjetivo y motivos para elegir una especialidad en enfermeras peruanas de programas de especialización / Subjective Well-Being and Motivation for Choosing any Specialties in Peruvian Nurses of Specialization Programs

Introducción: La elección de especialidades en enfermería surge a partir de motivaciones, las que se evidencian en el bienestar subjetivo o felicidad que sienten las enfermeras desde el momento que se encuentra estudiando su especialidad. Objetivo: Determinar la relación entre los motivos de elección de especialidades y el bienestar subjetivo en enfermeras de los programas de segunda especialización. Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, correlacional y transversal, desarrollado en la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Perú, en 2017. La población de estudio fue de 177 enfermeras ingresantes al Programa de Segunda Especialidad y la muestra se constituyó por 121 enfermeras, se calculó estadísticamente, con un muestreo estratificado. La técnica de recolección de datos fue la encuesta y el instrumento de medición un cuestionario de motivos de elección de especialidad y una escala para medir el bienestar subjetivo.

Resultados: Los principales motivos que llevaron a las enfermeras elegir sus especialidades fueron: "Valor social de la especialidad elegida" (87,26 por ciento) y "Vocación e interés por la carrera" (66,53 por ciento). Respecto al bienestar subjetivo, 65,29 por ciento se consideraban felices, resaltando la dimensión realización personal (65,37 por ciento); además, hubo relación entre los motivos de elección de especialidad y el bienestar subjetivo en enfermeras (rho = 0,394; p < 0,05). Conclusiones: Las enfermeras del programa de segunda especialización tenían un bienestar subjetivo aceptable, incluidas en la categoría de felices, tal bienestar se relaciona con los motivos que los llevo elegir su especialidad, en este caso fueron más los motivos de orientación intrínseca(AU)

Introduction: Choosing any nursing specialties arises from motivations, which are evidenced according to the subjective well-being or happiness that nurses feel from the moment that they are studying their specialties. Objective: To identify the relationship between the reasons for choosing specialties and subjective well-being in nurses from second specialization programs. Methods: Descriptive, correlational and cross-sectional study carried out in 2017 at Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Peru. The study population was 177 nurses starting the second specialty program and the sample consisted of 121 nurses. The sample size was calculated statistically by stratified sampling. The data collection technique was the survey, while the measurement instrument was a questionnaire of reasons for choosing any specialties and a scale to measure subjective well-being. For the correlation of variables, the Spearman correlation coefficient (p < 0.05, statistical significance) was used. Results: The main reasons that led the nurses to choose their specialties were the social value of the chosen specialty (87.26 percent) and the vocation and interest in the major (66.53 percent). Regarding subjective well-being, 65.29 percent considered themselves happy, highlighting the dimension personal fulfillment (65.37 percent). Furthermore, there was a relationship between the reasons for choosing any specialties and subjective well-being in nurses (rho= 0.394; p < 0.05). Conclusions: The nurses of the second specialization program had an acceptable subjective well-being, included in the category happy. Such well-being is related to the reasons that led them to choose their specialties, in which case there were more intrinsic orientation reasons(AU)

Peripheral Intravenous Education in North American Nursing Schools: A Call to Action.

BACKGROUND: Peripheral intravenous (PIV) management requires knowledge, skill, and clinical judgment to ensure positive patient outcomes; yet, many nurses lack confidence in their PIV knowledge and skills. It is important that graduate nurses acquire PIV knowledge and skills in nursing school. This study aimed to explore PIV content coverage and clinical opportunities provided in U.S. and Canadian nursing curricula. METHOD: Using a descriptive, exploratory design, representatives of nursing schools completed a 12-item, web-based PIV curriculum survey. RESULTS: Most schools covered PIV content in classroom, laboratory, and clinical settings; however, some indicated students were not allowed to initiate PIVs in clinical settings. Participants noted that PIV education was a shared responsibility with health systems. CONCLUSION: It is important that nursing students develop PIV competence; however, competing pressures for time in nursing curricula may limit PIV coverage. Nurse educators can benefit from PIV and infusion therapy specialty organization resources. [J Nurs Educ. 2020;59(9):493-500.].

Evaluation of the Impact of the Wound Treatment Associate (WTA) Education Program on Practice and Quality Patient Outcomes.

PURPOSE: The Wound Treatment Associate (WTA) program is an education offering of the WOCN Society. This evidence-based continuing education program prepares nurses to serve as a unit-based resource for nursing staff. The WTA program is approved by the American Nurses Credentialing Association (ANCC) for 32.25 contact hours and aimed at licensed health care personnel. This article focuses on the impact of this education program, in particular a reduction in hospital-acquired pressure injury (HAPI) in acute care and decrease in visits per episode (VPE) and supply costs in home health. METHODS: Surveys were sent to all course participants to date to fulfill the summative evaluation requirement for ANCC approval to determine the perception of improvement in knowledge, skills, and practice. An additional survey was developed and reviewed by members to send to WTA program course coordinators. RESULTS: Participants (n = 153) reported an increase in confidence in knowledge and skills about wound care and use in nursing practice. The number of respondents to the course coordinator survey was lower (n = 48). Coordinators did report a reduction in pressure injuries in acute care. Home health respondents noted a decrease in VPE and reduction in the cost of supplies. Data reported on abstracts and posters suggested positive impacts of pressure injury prevention programs in acute and home health care. CONCLUSIONS: Although there are limitations to the aforementioned reporting, incorporating the WTA program into pressure injury prevention programs and wound treatment programs showed a reduction in HAPIs in acute care and decreased VPE and supply costs in home health.

[A specialist nurse consultation for post-transplant follow-up of patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation: Recommendations of the Francophone Society of Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC)]. / Mise en place d'une consultation infirmière de suivi post-allogreffe de cellules souches hématopoïétiques : recommandations de la Société francophone de greffe de moelle et de thérapie cellulaire (SFGM-TC).

The number of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is in constant rise. This increase has put in spotlight the lack of physician availability. Some healthcare centers have already organised a nurse's consultation under the supervision of an expert physician. We conducted a survey among nurses and physicians from the French Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cell Therapy (SFGM-TC) centers who confirmed the need to create a special transplantation-skilled population of nurses. During this ninth annual workshop of the SFGM-TC, we have defined the required conditions for a transplant nurse consultation until day 100 post-transplant with the responsibility of the transplant expert physician. To help the centers in this dynamic, we provided practical tools to support this consultation. The current heath policy is in favor of an increased autonomy of the expert nurse. The implementation of the status of nurse in advanced practice is the first step in this professional development.

Burn Nurse Competency Utilization: Report From the 2019 Annual American Burn Association Meeting.

Competence in healthcare is a recognized expectation by consumers. In 2018 following an extensive review and consensus-building process, burn nursing practice competencies were published. Clinical nurse leaders were called upon to use these published competencies in practice as a basis for the requisite knowledge and skills needed in the care of the burn-injured individual. In 2019 at the 51st Annual Meeting of the American Burn Association, nurses from four U.S. burn centers reported on their center's incorporation of the competencies within their educational nursing curriculums. This paper provides a forum for each of the lead authors from Rhode Island Hospital Burn Center, the University of Utah Health Burn Trauma Intensive Care Unit, Parkland Regional Burn Center, and the University of Chicago Medicine Burn Center to outline their current utilization of the new burn nurse competencies and plans for future use.

La formación de las enfermeras en urología en los manuales de la titulación de Enfermera de 1915 / No disponible

En España, la titulación oficial de Enfermera se crea en el año 1915 (Real Orden 7-V-1915), tras la aprobación por el Ministerio correspondiente de la instancia presentada por la Congregación Siervas de María Ministras de los Enfermos. La titulación aprobada habilitaba de enfermeras a las que lo solicitasen, pertenecientes o no a comunidades religiosas. A raíz de ello se confeccionan manuales enfermeros. Los objetivos del presente trabajo son: 1. Conocer los contenidos en materia de enfermería urológica exigidos a la enfermera según la normativa vigente (1915). 2. Conocer en base a la documentación oficial publicada lo referente a la figura de la enfermera y la enfermería urológica. Como fuente documental se ha utilizado el Manual de la Carrera de Enfermeras para uso de las Hijas de la Caridad españolas (Madrid, 1917), que conoció varias ediciones, además de documentación legislativa y referencias a otros tratados enfermeros. Se ha seguido la metodología propia de la investigación histórica. Se muestran los contenidos relacionados con la urología presentes en la obra estudiada (definiciones, patologías, términos anatómicos, técnicas, cuidados). La figura de la enfermera ha sido clave en la conformación del actual profesional de enfermería. Los estudios realizados sobre estas profesionales en relación con la materia urológica son escasos, siendo necesario investigaciones de carácter histórico para conocer la verdadera dimensión de sus aportaciones. Entre las conclusiones alcanzadas, destacar que hasta llegar a la creación de la Especialidad de Urología y Nefrología para ATS (1975) (Decreto 2233/1975, de 24 de julio), encontramos en los textos un interés creciente por la materia de enfermería urológica. La obra analizada nos muestra el nivel de conocimientos sobre enfermería urológica de hace un siglo y el grado de autonomía alcanzado por las enfermeras. La investigación histórica se convierte en un pilar básico para conocer y comprender el desarrollo de esta especialidad en España

Sovereign ordinance of 7 May 1915 formally established an official nursing degree upon request by The Servants of Mary, Sisters to the Sick which was approved by the corresponding ministry. This nursing degree provided official recognition at the request of applicants, independently of religious creed. As a result, nursing manuals were created. The aims of the present study are: 1. To learn subject content connected with urologic nursing in compliance with current legislation (1915). 2. Learn what nurses and urologic nurses do on the basis of official documentation published. The textbook Manual de la Carrera de Enfermeras para uso de las Hijas de la Caridad españolas (Madrid, 1917), legislative documentation and references to teatrises on nursing have been use as a source of information. The methodology used has been historic research. Contents addressing urology are shown (definitions, pathologies, anatomical terms, techniques, care). Nursing had a key role in the formation of the present nursing profession. Studies conducted on these professionals with relation to urologic matter are scarce, stressing the importance of historical research in order to know the scope of their contribution. On the conclusions reached, it is important to emphasize that until the creation of the Urology and Nephrology for ATS (1975) (Decree 2233/1975, 24 July), an increasing interest in urology was observed. Work analysis shows the level of knowledge on urologic nursing from a century ago and the levels of nurse autonomy. Historical research becomes an essential foundation in order to know and understand the development of this specialty in Spain

Competences of specialist nurses and advanced practice nurses. / Competencias en enfermeras Especialistas y en Enfermeras de Práctica Avanzada.

OBJECTIVE: To analyse the distribution of advanced competences in specialist nurses and advanced practice nurses and to evaluate their association with some characteristics of their professional profile. METHOD: Multicentre analytical cross-sectional study. Nurses who worked as advanced practice nurses and specialist nurses were included. Their level of perceived advanced competences was measured, as well as sociodemographic and professional characterization variables. RESULTS: A total of 277 nurses participated (149 practised as advanced practice nurses and 128 as specialists), with an average of 13.88 (11.05) years as a specialist and 10.48 (5.32) years as an advanced practice nurse. In the sample, 28.8% had a master's or doctorate level qualification, 50.2% worked in Primary Care, 24.9% in hospitals and 22.7% in Mental Health. The self-perceived global level was high in the different competences, the lowest dimensions being research, evidence-based practice, quality and safety management and leadership and consulting. The advanced practice nurses obtained a higher level of competence globally and in the dimensions of leadership and consulting, interprofessional relations, care management, and health promotion. There were no differences based on experience or possession of a master's degree or doctorate. In the advanced practice nurses, the practice context did not influence competence levels, although in the specialist nurses it did, in favour of those practicing in Mental Health. CONCLUSIONS: Specialist and advanced practice nurses have different competences that should be adequately managed for the development of advanced and specialist nursing services.

La formación especializada en enfermería familiar y comunitaria: oscuro objeto de deseo / Specialised training in the field of community and family nursing: dark object of desire

La formación especializada en Enfermería Familiar y Comunitaria viene desarrollándose desde que en 2010 se publicó su Programa Oficial. Se ha integrado en las Unidades Docentes Multiprofesionales de Atención Familiar y Comunitaria, lo cual ha supuesto ciertas ventajas pero también inconvenientes. La especialidad tiene unas amplias competencias que abarcan integralmente a las personas, las familias y las comunidades en el entorno en el que desarrollan su vida. Algunas competencias vienen a cubrir áreas actualmente no atendidas por el sistema sanitario e implican una cierta complejidad para su adquisición. La oferta formativa se ve incrementada paulatinamente desde los inicios de la especialidad. Está pendiente de que se dé el paso para que las especialistas formadas desarrollen sus competencias en el sistema sanitario; las Comunidades Autónomas avanzan en ese sentido

Specialised training in the field of community and family nursing has been developed since 2010, when its Official Programme was published. It has been integrated in the Multiprofessional Training Units of Family and Community Care, which implies certain advantages, but also some drawbacks. This specialised training covers a wide range of competences that involve people, family and communities in their living environment. Some of these competences cover areas that are currently not taken into account by the medical system and they imply certain complexity in their acquisition. The training programme has been gradually increased since the beginning of this specialised training. The acquisitions of these competences by the professionals working in this field are still pending and the regions of Spain are making progress in this direction

Advancing the practice of nursing through specialty fellowship development for pediatric nurse practitioners.

Fellowship training for physicians has historically been a training model for physicians to specialize their practice and develop research skills following medical school and residency. Advanced practice registered nurses, specifically nurse practitioners (NPs) practice in primary care, acute care, and specialty settings across the lifespan. Fellowship programs have emerged as a way for NPs to specialize their practice and meet the needs of an expanding health care system. This article describes the design, implementation, and outcomes of two similar yet distinct specialty NP fellowship programs: one in Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics and one in Pediatric Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.

Variation in the barriers to compassion across healthcare training and disciplines: A cross-sectional study of doctors, nurses, and medical students.

BACKGROUND: Despite the established importance of compassion in health, studies examining the specific barriers to compassionate care in healthcare are few. Recent work suggests that examining differences as a function of professional development and identifying variation in barriers to compassionate care across professions may highlight the origins of barriers and inform the development of compassion-enhancing interventions suited to the unique challenges of different professions and stages of training. OBJECTIVES: To explore whether the barriers to compassion vary (a) between physicians and nurses and (b) across samples of physicians and medical students (i.e., as a function of development and clinical experience). It was expected that medical students would report greater barriers than physicians and that nurses would generally report lower barriers to compassion, other than for external barriers. METHODS: Registered nurses, physicians, and medical students were recruited using convenience sampling in New Zealand. Following consent, 1700 participants (801 nurses, 516 physicians, and 383 medical students) completed a survey including the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory and the Barriers to Physician Compassion questionnaire. RESULTS: As expected, medical students reported greater barriers to compassion than physicians and nurses, with both professions generally reporting lower barriers. However, and also consistent with hypotheses, nurses reported greater work-environment-related barriers relative to physicians. DISCUSSION: Students reported greater barriers than physicians. While nurses generally reported lower barriers than physicians, they specifically reported greater work environment-related barriers. For nurses, results highlight the importance of implementing interventions that reduce external barriers to compassion, specifically the need to alleviate the structural barriers and restrictions that nurses face. For medical students and younger healthcare professionals, the results highlight the importance of mentorship, support, and ongoing professional and emotional development.

The effects of education and clinical specialization on nurses' status affirmation by physicians: A quantitative analysis.

Research has demonstrated a status gap between members of healthcare delivery teams. However, it is unclear which factors mitigate or exacerbate the status gap between healthcare providers. This paper examines the concept of status affirmation, the belief that others affirm the individual's social standing, as one factor that can affect the status gap between healthcare professionals. The aim of this exploratory study was to investigate two factors that affect nurses' status affirmation: nurses' educational backgrounds and clinical specializations. A close-ended survey was administered to registered nurses in Indiana, a midwestern American state 1 (N = 1262) to identify which nurses are likely to have their status affirmed by physicians, in general. Results of multinomial logistic regression analyses suggest that highly educated nurses are unlikely to receive status affirmation, and there are differences in status affirmation across clinical specialties. In addition, nurses with advanced degrees often do not work in specialties that receive status affirmation. These results suggest that conflict among nurses and doctors is as likely to exist across divisions in nurses' educational attainment as across work specializations. Status affirmation is posited as a theoretical antecedent to interprofessional collaboration.

An exploration of the experiences of rheumatology nurses counselling patients on methotrexate therapy.

OBJECTIVES: Methotrexate is commonly used to treat patients with inflammatory arthritis. A key role of a rheumatology nurse is to educate patients on how to take this drug safely prior to the commencement of treatment. The objective of the present study was to explore the experiences of rheumatology nurses conducting this role, focusing on the content of the consultation and training received to perform the role. METHODS: A qualitative phenomenological approach was used. Six semi-structured interviews were performed with nurses from two hospitals who regularly counsel patients prior to starting methotrexate. The interviews were thematically analysed by two researchers and themes extracted. RESULTS: Four main themes were identified: (a) using written information to structure the content of the consultation; (b) patients have different information needs; (c) time pressures; and (d) training and evolution of practice. All participants described a lack of confidence when they first started counselling patients commencing methotrexate, with a wide variation in training. Participants reported that patients required different information depending on whether they were commencing this agent on its own or in combination with other drugs. All participants experienced some time pressure. CONCLUSIONS: Participants reported that the majority of the consultation focused on conveying information, with little opportunity for patient interaction and questions. We suggest that there is a clear need for further exploration of these consultations, to identify possible training needs. Participants also used standard written information to guide both the structure and content of the consultation limiting patients'; opportunities to ask questions.

The aim of this study is to describe the creation process of the specialization course in Obstetric Nursing, residence modality, in the municipal health network of Rio de Janeiro. This is a qualitative, exploratory, descriptive study, of social historical nature. The analysis corpus of this research were primary sources that consisted of written documents and oral testimony that have been produced using semi-structured interviews with the professional group SMS-RJ and teachers of ENF/UERJ, who worked directly in the design and implementation the proposal of the course from 2003 to 2005. The results showed that the health policy in the country looked for the qualification of health care of women, reducing maternal and neonatal mortality and changing the care model toward the humanization of childbirth and birth. Due to shortage of obstetric nurses in the municipal health network, there was a partnership of SMS-RJ and ENF / UERJ for the formation of these professionals as an opportunity for expansion of their activities. We conclude that the process of creation of this specialization model in the municipal health of Rio de Janeiro had challenges for managers and teachers for its implementation
