Journal Title: Medical Science Pulse - Year 2017, Vol 11, Issue 4
Abstract
Background: Conscious evaluation of nursing care through the experiences of the patient can be a valuable resource for creating an effective education system and a good criterion for its establishment. In order to improve the quality of nursing care, it is necessary to continually develop students’ knowledge and ensure they practice their professional skills [1]. Aim of the study: The aim of this study is to evaluate the standards of nursing practice among student nurses who participate in practical classes in hospital training centres. Material and methods: The studies were performed on 190 patients hospitalized on medical and surgical wards in Opole. The research was based on a survey specifically prepared for this study. The respondents gave their answers using a numerical scale from 1 to 5 (1= lowest rating, 5= highest rating). Average student skill level data are presented as the arithmetic mean across all measures. Results: Skilled nurse candidates are required to possess specific predispositions and an appropriate attitude, expected of professional ethics. The assessment of student behavior and ethical approach is highly significant (average appraisal: 4.98). Students who are present on wards have a positive influence on patient well-being (4.97). Assessment of behavior and respect for patient rights received an average score 4.94 and 4.95. Patients evaluated student communication skills (the manner in which important information is explained to patients) as low – 4.75; similarly, a lower score was given to the level of health education (4.73). Conclusions: 1. Greater emphasis needs to be placed on the health education of student nurses. 2. The ability of student nurses to communicate with patients, on matters relating to treatment, requires further improvement.
