Effectiveness of online interprofessional education-communication course during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A developed IPE (Interprofessional Education)-communication course was first implemented at Universitas Pelita Harapan/UPH via online learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of a newly developed IPE-online communication course offered to medical (MS) and nursing (NS) students. This study was a quantitative study using a pre-post design without control. The IPAS (Interprofessional Attitude Scale) assessed students' attitudes toward IPE. Satisfaction with the program was also measured following its completion. The questionnaire was administered via Survey Monkey to 535 respondents (MS = 250; NS = 285). Univariate and bivariate statistical analyses were employed. Before and after the IPE program, 161 MS and 146 NS completed the IPAS questionnaire (n = 307). The attitude of MS and NS were not improved significantly (p-value >0.05). Moreover, several subscales of attitudes decreased significantly, including "Diversity and Ethics" with a low-size effect for medical students and "Teamwork, Roles, and Responsibilities" and "Patient-Centeredness" with a low-size effect for nursing students. Both students (n = 307) were also satisfied with the IPE course (Mean MS: 4.28 and NS: 4.34). This study suggests that online IPE communication course may not be effective in fostering student attitudes. The IPE communication course should be accomplished through in-person class instead of online learning. Further IPE course evaluations are required to improve the acceptability, applicability, and effectiveness of IPE in health education.

Empathy in Nursing Students: A Scoping Review.

Purpose: Empathy is essential for nursing students as they progress through their education. To date, few review studies explored empathy in nursing students. This review examined empathy in nursing students, including how to promote empathy, factors contributing to empathy, and the evaluation of empathy. Design: The eligible population included undergraduate nursing students. The concept of interest was empathy related to nursing students. The context was undergraduate nursing programs. Eligible studies included quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method studies. The protocol was registered in Open Science Framework (OSF). Review Methods: Joanna Briggs Institute Reviewers' Manual guided this scoping review protocol. MEDLINE with Full text (EBSCO), Scopus, ScienceDirect (Elsevier), and PubMed were used for the electronic database search. The findings were analyzed with descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. Findings: A total of 94 articles were included for analysis. Three main themes emerged: (1) approaches to promoting empathy, (2) contributing factors to empathy, and (3) evaluation of empathy. Conclusions: Empathy is cultivated in nursing in numerous ways, highlighting the need to incorporate it into the nursing curriculum. There is also controversy regarding the relationship between empathy and individual characteristics. This finding highlights the need for more effective empathy-promoting educational training that considers these personal characteristics.

Validation of the Rowland Universal Dementia Assessment Scale in Indonesia: Preliminary Evidence.

The South-East Asia region has one of the fastest-growing aging populations, for which standardized dementia screening measures will be essential for geriatric care. The Rowland Universal Dementia Assessment Scale (RUDAS) is adopted for use in the Indonesian setting but lacks evidence of its cross-cultural transportability. This study aimed to examine the reliability and validity of scores from the Rowland Universal Dementia Assessment Scale (RUDAS) in the Indonesian setting. Indonesian older adults from a geriatric nursing center (N = 135; 52 males, 83 females; age range 60-82) completed the Indonesian translation of the RUDAS (RUDAS-Ina), following content adaptation study with community living older adults (N = 35), nine neurologists and two geriatric nurses. For face and content validity, we utilized a consensus-building procedure. Results following confirmatory factor analysis yielded a single-factor model. The reliability of scores from the RUDAS-Ina was marginally satisfactory for research purposes (Cronbach α = 0.61). Multi-level linear regression for examining the association of the RUDAS-Ina scores with gender and age indicated older age to be associated with lower RUDAS-Ina scores. In contrast, the association with gender was not significant. Findings suggest a need to develop and validate locally generated items with cultural sensitivity to the Indonesian setting, which may also be studied in other Southeast Asian countries.

Relationship between burnout and resilience of nurses at a private hospital in Indonesia

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between burnout and resilience of nurses at one private hospital in Indonesia. METHOD: This was a quantitative correlational design with 120 nurses as the sample. This study used Maslach burnout questionnaire (Cronbach's alpha 0.826) and resilience questionnaire by Barr (Cronbach's alpha above 0.895). Data were collected in March 2019 and were analyzed with Pearson test. This study conducted both univariate and bivariate analyses. RESULTS: This study revealed that almost two third of nurses, experienced burnout as reduced personal accomplishment (70%), yet had resilience as optimism (88.33%). This study revealed that there was a significant relationship between nurses' burnout and resilience with low correlation coefficient (p value=0.011 and r=0.232). CONCLUSION: It is noted that nurses' burnout is related to their resilience. Further exploration on how to increase nurses' resilience for addressing nurses' burnout is expected

Incivility in nursing education: A systematic literature review.

Incivility has been investigated worldwide in various settings including non-health and health care settings. However, it has become a growing concern in higher education including nurse education. This is particularly disconcerting since it is concerned with developing a caring profession. This systematic literature review aims to describe perceptions of students and members of faculty regarding incivility in nursing education. It identifies and discusses gaps in the literature and the need for future studies. This review was part of a doctoral thesis to which more recent studies have been added. A systematic literature review was conducted using the following steps: identification of a research question, data searching, data selection and data analysis. The approach was conducted to provide clear systematic steps and accommodate varied methods. Four themes emerged from the analysis including: (i) perceived instances of incivility; (ii) factors related to incivility; (iii) the impact of incivility, and (iv) strategies for promoting civility in nursing education. The study also identifies the need for randomised-intervention studies that investigate the phenomena.

Perceived uncivil behaviour in Indonesian nursing education.

Uncivil behaviour is a phenomenon that has attracted a growing number of investigations, particularly in Western based nurse education. Unlike the West, uncivil behaviour is a relatively new field of study to Indonesia. However, with the incidence of incivility becoming a growing problem within Indonesian nurse education it is one that warrants investigation. This study investigated; the construct of uncivil behaviour and how it is perceived by students and faculty within the Indonesia context. The impact that socio economic status may play in its manifestation is also explored. The study was conducted in two faculties of nursing in the west of Indonesia. Findings suggest that religion is strongly implicated in the way that uncivil behaviour is perceived.
