ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Two major avoidable reasons for adverse events in hospital are medication errors and intravenous therapy-induced infections or complications. Training for clinical staff and compliance to patient safety principles could address these. METHODS: Joint Commission International (JCI) consultants created a standardised, 6-month training programme for clinical staff in hospitals. Twenty-one tertiary care hospitals from across south-east Asia took part. JCI trained the clinical consultants, who trained hospital safety champions, who trained nursing staff. Compliance and knowledge were assessed, and monthly audits were conducted. RESULTS: There was an overall increase of 29% in compliance with parameters around medication preparation and vascular access device management. CONCLUSION: The programme improved safe practice around preparing medications management and managing vascular access devices. The approach could be employed as a continuous quality improvement initiative for the prevention of medication errors and infusion-associated complications.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Global nursing shortages require effective recruitment strategies and understanding of individuals' motivations to enter the profession. These can be complex and bound by numerous factors such as gender and culture. While much research around this has been conducted, little has been undertaken in non-Western cultures where motivations could be different. AIM: To explore Indonesian nurses' and nursing students' motivations for entering the nursing profession. DESIGN: Online survey with closed and open-ended questions drawn from two different studies. This paper reports findings from one similar open-ended question. METHODS: As part of two larger surveys, nurses from 13 hospitals across one private health care group and nursing students with clinical experienced enrolled in a baccalaureate nursing program in Indonesia were asked the question, Why do you want to be a nurse? Responses were translated into English and back-translated into Indonesian prior to being subjected to summative content analysis. RESULTS: In total, 1351 nurses and 400 students provided responses to the question, representing 98.72% and 99.70% respectively of those completing the survey. Both groups were primarily influenced by desire to serve others and God, personal calling and influence of family members and others. Nurses identified a desire to work in the health field and with the sick, in a noble and caring profession. CONCLUSIONS: Nurses and nursing students were motivated by traditional perspectives on nursing. These should be considered in future recruitment activities. However, more research is needed to understand how these factors influence career choice.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Rapid developments in health care technologies and treatments require nurses to keep abreast of current and best evidence to inform their practice. Continuing professional development is a key component in ensuring knowledge and practice meet contemporary demands and best practice. OBJECTIVE: To examine professional development needs for registered nurses working in Indonesia. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey design using the previously validated Indonesian version of the Hennessy Hicks Training Needs Analysis measurement tool was distributed via digital technologies across thirteen hospitals of one private health care provider in four different regions across Indonesia. RESULTS: A total of 1355 nurses completed the tool. Nurses rated direct care tasks higher on importance, performance and training need, while supporting tasks rated lowest on performance and training need. Nurses with less than one year of experience reported higher need for training. CONCLUSIONS: Most identified performance development needs were similar to those reported by nurses elsewhere. There is a need for specifically and locally tailored education opportunities for outcomes to motivate learning that are meaningful and applicable to practice needs. Future research should seek to examine training needs for nurses working in other settings such as public hospitals and community health settings.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The purpose of this article is to describe an evaluation of psychometric properties of the Indonesian version of the Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision, and Nurse Teacher (CLES + T) scale, a scale that measures nursing students' perceptions of their clinical learning environment. METHODS: The CLES + T was completed by 292 nursing students. Inter-item correlations, exploratory factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha, and evidence of validity were used to examine reliability and validity. RESULTS: Four factors were extracted that explained 58% of the variance. Cronbach alphas ranged from .86-.95. Wording to describe different titles of supervisors was unclear to some of the participants. CONCLUSION: The Indonesian version of the CLES + T is a reliable version. More research is needed to clarify some of the wording.
