ABSTRACT

AIM: The aim of this study was to analyse the patients' role in clinical education in terms of facilitative student-patient relationship in Finland, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Lithuania and Spain and factors promoting a more facilitative relationship in clinical education. BACKGROUND: Nursing students' bedside learning is reliant on patients and the establishment of a person-centred approach develops from the relationships with patients. DESIGN: A multi-country, cross-sectional design was implemented. METHODS: Survey data were collected from graduating nursing students and patients between May 2018 and March 2019. The survey consisted of a 13-item facilitative sub-scale of the Student-Patient Relationship Scale as the main outcome measure, which was identical for both populations. In addition, background factors were surveyed with single questions and other scales. Associations between facilitative relationship and background factors were studied with linear models. RESULTS: Altogether, 1796 students and 1327 patients answered the survey. Overall, both students and patients regarded their relationship as facilitative, but students' (median 4.23, 95% confidence interval 4.15-4.23) evaluations were higher than patients' (median 3.75, 95% confidence interval 3.69-3.77). The students' and patients' evaluations differed from each other significantly in all other countries except in Ireland and Lithuania. Corresponding associations for both populations were found in terms of the country and students' cultural confidence. CONCLUSIONS: Results signal favourable grounds for students' bedside learning and patient participation in clinical education with the potential to foster a person-centred approach.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To analyse graduating nursing students' self-assessed competence level in Europe at graduation, at the beginning of nursing career. DESIGN: An international cross-sectional evaluative design. METHODS: Data were collected in February 2018-July 2019 from graduating nursing students in 10 European countries. Competence was assessed with a validated instrument, the Nurse Competence Scale (NCS). The sample comprised 3,490 students (response rate 45%), and data were analysed statistically. RESULTS: In all countries, graduating nursing students assessed their competence as good (range 50.0-69.1; VAS 0-100), albeit with statistically significant differences between countries. The assessments were highest in Iceland and lowest in Lithuania. Older students, those with working experience in health care, satisfied with their current degree programme, with excellent or good study achievements, graduating to 1st study choice and having a nursing career plan for future assessed their competence higher.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: A nurse educator has an important role in promoting students' learning and professional development as well as in offering high quality nursing education. OBJECTIVES: To describe the competence of nurse educators and explore its connection with the self-evaluated competence of graduating nurse students. DESIGN: A cross-sectional survey design was used. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 1796 graduating nurse students in Finland, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Lithuania and Spain participated in this study. METHODS: The data were collected with structured electronic or paper-and-pencil questionnaires. Graduating nurse students evaluated the nurse educators' competence using six items derived from the Tool for Evaluation of Requirements of Nurse Teacher (ERNT) and in addition, the students evaluated their own generic professional competence using the Nursing Competence Scale (NCS). The data were analysed statistically. RESULTS: On average, graduating nurse students evaluated the competence of nurse educators to be rather high. Icelandic and Irish students evaluated nurse educators' competence the highest. German and Finnish students were the most critical. The students also evaluated the level of their own professional competence as good. The higher graduating nurse students evaluated their own competence, the higher they also evaluated their nurse educators' competence. CONCLUSIONS: Students' evaluations of their educators' competence and their own competence seem to be aligned. However, educators' competence and its connection with students' competence warrants further studies.
