The study will utilise focus groups with trained PNAs from different Trusts spread over the Midlands region within England. This approach will help explore the experiences and views of trained PNAs in the application of the role and the foundations on which it is supported. It will also supply valuable feedback regarding the preparation, implementation, and outcome of adopting the PNA position with health care organisations, as there is a suggestion that the role could expand from England to the United Kingdom and possibly the United States of America.
Nursing is a scientific discipline based on professional values, principles and standards. Nursing care is a holistic and continuous approach. Therefore, nurses spend more time interacting with patients or healthy individuals than other healthcare professionals. Effective and quality nursing care depends on professional attitudes, perceptions and satisfaction. Movies are recognized as effective educational resources to encourage the retention of knowledge and the development of desired behaviors. Therefore, in this study, it is aimed to determine the effect of movies about the profession on the professional pride of nursing students.
CareME is a group attachment-based intervention program developed for improving relational abilities in professional caregivers working in Youth Residential Care (YRC) settings. The intervention program was planned to integrate 12 group session (90 minutes each), implemented fortnightly during a 6-month period, and facilitated by two psychologists and expertise researchers on attachment framework. The project aims to produce effects on professional caregivers' behaviors and, as an indirect effect, to produce changes on adolescents' outcomes (age 12 to 18 years old). Regarding professional caregivers' behaviors the project aims to improve reflective functioning, perspective taking, emotion regulation, group intervention practices and quality of relationships in RC (primary outcomes). Additionally, it's expected to reduce levels of professional exhaustion and improve mental health (secondary outcomes). Attachment was considered a moderator. As a result of professional's caregivers behavior change, it is expected to observe subsequent effects on adolescents' psychosocial adaptation indicators, such as improvements on the quality of relationship with professional caregivers, hope, self-efficacy and in emotional regulations processes and a decrease on antisocial behavior, anger control problems and emotional suffering (secondary outcomes). Attachment was considered also a moderator. Program efficacy was evaluated using a randomized control trial (RCT). Institutions were assigned to the experimental (n = 10) and to the control (n = 11) group using a covariate adaptative randomization method. Data was assessed using a 4-wave longitudinal design (baseline, interim, post, 6-month follow-up) with professional caregivers and adolescents' self-reports.
The aim of this study project is to clarify whether defined practical application skills are learned by anesthesiology specialists through a self-directed learning program with learning videos and a hands-on exercise station ("intervention group"). "Control group" is a traditional instructor-led practical workshop classroom teaching. Hypothesis: A video-based and self-directed learning program shows no difference in the learning successes than traditional face-to-face workshops.
Aim: The aims of this study are: (1) to present the development, content validation and implementation study of the Relationship Competences Guiding Tool (RCGT); (2) to show some examples of how each of the items of the guide may be reflected on clinical narratives written by nurses, and justify its corresponding scores after the evaluation; (3) to present how the language and content of the narratives are interpreted with this guide and to describe an exemplar; (4) to present barriers and facilitators of its application. Background: From a person-centred care approach, the fostering of authentic relationships with patients is key for therapeutic benefits. Therefore, it is essential to help nurses to establish meaningful relationships with patients and help them to achieve these abilities. In this line, clinical narratives can be used as a way to promote reflective practice and professional competences development between nurses. A guide to evaluate the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values necessary for developing authentic encounters with patients reflected by nurses on clinical narratives was developed and implemented. Design: Design and evaluation of the RCGT, and evaluation of its implementation Methods: This study was conducted in three major steps. Step one entailed the conceptualization. Step two included the generation of items and content validation. Then, in step three, the tool was used to independently evaluate 25 narratives by two researchers, in order to identify and exemplify the attributes of the nurse patient relationship defined on the guide and identify barriers and facilitators. One of the narratives was linguistically analysed in the light of the guide, in order to provide a comprehensive view of the interpretative strategies deployed by evaluators. Results: The RCGT helped to identify nursing professional competences reflected in clinical narratives. The tool guided in the process of assigning scores to the corresponding items. The use of the tool helped to identify some barriers and facilitators before and during the narrative evaluation process. Conclusions: A clear, relevant, conceptually and linguistically adequate guide for assessing clinical narratives was obtained. The RCGT can be applied to accurately interpret how nurses reflect professional competences in a clinical narrative as a preliminary step to design a measurement tool.
The SPRING project intends to develop a social assistance robot, called ARI, capable of interacting with several users (patients, families) in noisy and busy hospital environments to inform, guide and entertain them and to support care workers in these environments. The AP-HP researchers participating in the SPRING project wish to evaluate human-robot interactions in a day care hospital and in particular the acceptability and the uses of the robot.
It is aimed to understand the gender differences on factors affecting the resting metabolic rate of people in different professional status. The relation between daily and weekly walking and sitting time, body mass index (kg/m2), Ponderal Index (kg/cm), waist-to-hip ratio of the participants will be searched. In this context, the demographic data (age, gender, neck and waist circumference (cm), occupation, education level) of the participants will be gathered with a questionnaire, specifically prepared for this study. The body composition analyses and International Physical Activity Level Questionnaire (IPAQ), Healthy Eating Index (HEI) will also be used to understand their body composition, physical activity level and eating habits, respectively. The data will be compared to understand the effects of education level and type of occupation on their physical activity level, as well as, the effects of trainings on adapting healthy behaviour of the participants as physical activity, healthy eating habits in relation to gender and professional status.
The University of Florida's (UF) Lastinger Center for Learning, in partnership with the UF Psychology Department, have been funded by the National Institute of Justice to advance the skills of School Resource Officers (SROs) currently working in the Miami-Dade Schools Police Department through an innovative, scalable, online and in-person professional development system. The goal will be realized through a 36-month pilot project allowing for the development, testing, and refinement of the system conducted in partnership with the Miami-Dade County Public Schools, and includes an evaluation component to assess for efficacy and scalability.
