Effect of flipped classroom model on training of newly-contracted nurses / 现代临床护理

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of the flipped classroom model on the training of nursing theory and skills to newly-contracted nurses. Methods A total of 122 newly-contracted nurses in 2013 were selected as the control group, where the traditional training methods were adopted. The 303 newly-contracted nurses recruited into the hospital in 2014 were set as the experimental group, where the training was carried out by using the flipped classroom model for 1 year. After training, the differences between the two groups in the theoretical test and nursing skills assessment were compared. A satisfaction survey about the flipped classroom model was made in the experimental group. Results Both the scores on the nursing theory and skills in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group (all P<0.001).More than 88.9％of the newly-contracted nurses in the experimental group was for the training arrangement, classroom experience and application of the flipped class model. Conclusion The application of the flipped classroom model in the training of nursing for newly-contracted nurses can improve the learning effect of newly-contracted nurses and enhance their nursing theory and skills.
