Abstract:

Abstract Objective To determine the relationship between clinical performance and professional self-concept in critical care nurses. Methods This study was conducted on 308 critical care nurses. Data gathering instruments were nurses’ clinical performance questionnaire (NCPQ) and nursing professional self-concept measure (NPSCM). Independent sample t-test, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Pearson correlation coefficient were used for data analyses. Results The average age of the nurses was 33.74 ± 7.01 years. The clinical performance score of female nurses was significantly higher than male nurses. In the domain of clinical performance, clinical judgment and clinical inquiry had the highest and lowest scores, respectively. In the nurses’ professional self-concept, the highest and lowest scores were awarded to the subscales of self-confidence and staff relations, respectively. In addition, there was a significant positive correlation between self-concept and clinical performance of nurses. Conclusions Increasing professional self-concept improves the clinical performance of critical care nurses. Professional self-concept enhancement measures are recommended to improve the clinical performance of nurses in critical care units.

Abstract:

Professional self-concept in nurses is understood as the way nurses think and feel about themselves in their nursing role and is both a predictor of quality of care and a protective factor against burnout. The aim of this study was to translate, culturally adapt and validate the Spanish version of the Nurses Self-Concept Instrument in a sample of 483 Spanish registered nurses. In addition, we analyzed gender differences in its dimensions in the same sample. Internal reliability was evaluated using Cronbach’s Alpha, while construct validity was assessed using both exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. The differences between groups were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Factor distribution was different from the original model. A gender gap was observed in the Nurse Thinking and Perception of Capabilities dimensions with higher values in the women group, while in the Leadership dimension, higher values were observed in the men group. While the Spanish version of the Nurses Self-Concept Instrument is a valid and reliable tool to measure this construct, the differences in its dimensions lead to a deeper understanding of the cultural differences in the construction of professional self-concept.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: The philosophical and theoretical values of nursing moved away from a systematic review of the science of nursing and experienced a shift based on paradigms. The results may be interpreted by several nursing theorists in different ways. AIM: This paper aims to analyze the development of a more comprehensive understanding toward the meaning of confidence concept of the nurses and stimulated services health, person, environment and nursing resolutions based on nursing discussions, and nursing-related literature. The definition of this resolution has been completed and synthesized successfully to fit our nursing philosophy. METHODS: The main argument from the researchers shows the renewal of several nursing theorists and critical appraisal adopted by Walker and Avant in eight steps of the broader concept that was agreed at the beginning in the construction of phased planning from positivistic to questionable views of the research the philosophy in nursing provers that nurses confidence is also important. RESULTS: They are academically constructed so that they do not highlight the daily improvement of nurses as nurses need to be confident in performing their job. We need to offer a philosophy of nursing with four things: Social, environmental health, passenger care, and self-confidence. CONCLUSION: The selection of philosophy and ideology of the second paradigm among various options must be agreed on. Nurses must have strong self-confidence and smart collaboration who can make changes in the quality of life of others considering the good and bad for their health.

Abstract:

The professional identity of student nurses may fluctuate or even disintegrate when exposed to clinical realities. A self-identity must be integrated firstly with new expectations and modified within a social context to form a professional identity. In the process of developing a professional identity, student nurses either develop a self-concept within a professional role based on attributes, beliefs, values, motives, experiences, morals and ideals of who and what a nurse is, or lack to develop in this role. This study targeted to investigate the perceptions of Saudi student nurses in the evolution of a professional identity. A non-probabilistic and descriptive approach was selected for data collection. A Nurses Professional Identity Scale was constructed by the researcher to explore the evolution of a professional identity as perceived by Saudi student nurses. Mean scores indicated the importance of the self-presentation, self-image, self-esteem, self-categorization and self-concept as dimensions, which facilitates a professional identity. The p-values obtained for all the factors were less than the level of significance (p-value<0.05), which indicated the importance of all the associated factors. The significance of how student nurses identify themselves as professionals during the Baccaulearate program in various role formation has been emphasized. These roles are still undervalued by society and influences stereotypical attitudes.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Commitment to ethics usually results in nurses’ better professional performance and advancement. Professional self-concept of nurses refers to their information and beliefs about their roles, values, and behaviors. The objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between nurses’ professional self-concept and professional ethics in hospitals affiliated to Jahrom University of Medical Sciences. METHODS: This cross sectional-analytical study was conducted in 2014. The 270 participants were practicing nurses and head-nurses at the teaching hospitals of Peimanieh and Motahari in Jahrom University of Medical Science. Sampling was based on sencus method. Data was collected using Cowin’s Nurses’ self-concept questionnaire (NSCQ) and the researcher-made questionnaire of professional ethics. RESULTS: The average of the sample’s professional self-concept score was 6.48±0.03 out of 8. The average of the sample’s commitment to professional ethics score was 4.08±0.08 out of 5. Based on Pearson’s correlation test, there is a significant relationship between professional ethics and professional self-concept (P=0.01, r=0.16). CONCLUSION: In view of the correlation between professional self-concept and professional ethics, it is recommended that nurses’ self-concept, which can boost their commitment to ethics, be given more consideration.

Abstract:

Purpose: To identify the impact of dealing with COVID-19 patients in clinical areas on nurses’ professional self-concept and self-confidence. Background: Professional self-concept is considered a critical factor in the recruitment/retention process in nursing, nursing shortage, career satisfaction, and academic achievements. Professional self-confidence is also a crucial determinant in staff satisfaction, reducing turnover, and increasing work engagement. Design: Descriptive, comparative study. Methods: The study was conducted between February to May 2021 by utilizing a convenience sampling technique. A total of 170 nurses from two facilities were recruited from two COVID-19- and non-COVID-19-designated facilities. The level of professional self-concept and self-confidence was assessed by utilizing the Nurses’ Self-Concept Instrument and Self-Confidence Scale. Results: The professional self-concept level among the group exposed to COVID-19 patients was lower than the comparison group, while the professional self-confidence level among the exposed group to COVID-19 patients was similar to the comparison group. On the other hand, the satisfied staff and those who received professional training in dealing with COVID-19 patients reported a higher level of professional self-concept. Conclusions: Dealing with COVID-19 patients has an impact on professional self-concept; the exposure group was lower than those who did not deal with COVID-19 patients, while the professional self-confidence level among the exposed group was similar to the comparison group. Getting professional training in dealing with COVID-19 patients and being satisfied at work were significant factors in improving professional self-concept. Policymakers should create strategies that target the improvement of professional training in dealing with COVID-19 patients.

Abstract:

Background It is important for nurses to recognize and integrate the dimensions of body, mind, and spirit in their daily clinical practice (Dossey, 2005). If the client's needs are not met in one of the dimensions that can cause health and welfare problems. 94% of patients visiting hospitals in the US believe that spiritual health is as important as physical health. The need to get the attention that understanding caring alone is not enough to make a nurse can provide good service. Based on Maslow's theory that a person will do his work in accordance with the level of his needs. Understanding of a nurse who is at the level 5 stage of self-actualization, actually only wants to provide satisfaction for the achievement of personal self-actualization.

Abstract:

Our self-concept is how we see ourselves in our minds. The goal of this research was to discover any significant differences in the dimensions of self-concept between clinical nurses employed in an intensive care unit in Slovenia and Slovenian women from the general population, who represented the control group. The research included 603 women aged 20—40 years (mean 29.94; standard deviation ±6.0) who had a high-school education. To determine the differences between the groups statistically we used one-way analysis of variance. The results revealed that clinical nurses had a more positive self-concept than members of the control group. Self-concept is very important in nursing because it is closely connected to the existing value system of individuals and their behaviour. Self-concept gives nurses a sense of how they use their abilities and how they perform in relation to patients.

Abstract:

The main objective was to measure the professional identity of nurses and to evaluate the ways to measure and develop the Nurse’s Professional Identity Scale (NPIS) as perceived by Saudi student nurses. The study employed a quantitative research design to assess the measurement scale of Nurse’s Professional Identity. Data collection was done through a questionnaire from 442 student nurses, who have been recruited through a randomized sampling approach. A factor analysis identified five-factor dimensions within a multi-dimensional structure of 45 items. Factor 1 has been identified as the most important factor on self-presentation as most significant and important to the technique of constructing and forming a professional identity. Factor 2 has accounted for 5.62; Factor 3 has accounted for 5.14; Factor 4 has accounted for 4.29; and Factor 5 has accounted for 4.25. Factor 1 consisted of 16 variables and all items with loadings greater than (>0.3), which deals with self-esteem. It has been evaluated that the nursing professional identity scale can be used to adapt and assess the developing/forming stages of student nurses and the variables needed for constituting a professional identity. Self-presentation, self-image, self-esteem, self-categorization and self-concept are directly associated with certain activities, interventions, and approaches required to be developed.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTBreast cancer is the disease that many women fear the most. Breast cancer significantly affects the psychological states of the patients, including self-concept. Patients with breast cancer commonly experience a negative self-concept due to the disease and side effects of the treatment. However, problems of self-concept among patients with breast cancer are rarely investigated by nurses. Furthermore, no measurement tool specifically measures the self-concept of breast cancer patients. The purpose of this study was to examine the validity and reliability of the self-concept questionnaire. This study used a case study research design to measure the self-concept of breast cancer patients using a newly developed questionnaire, namely the Merlin Breast Cancer Self-Concept Questionnaire. This questionnaire will be tested on breast cancer patients undergoing treatment in the hospital. The result showed a Cronbach’s alpha value of 0.909 for the validity and 0.500-0.790 for the reliability of the instrument. Merlin Breast Cancer Self-Concept Questionnaire was evident to be a valid and reliable instrument to measure self-concept among breast cancer patients. This questionnaire is feasible for use to measure self-concept among breast cancer patients. Implication for practice: This questionnaire will greatly help the clinic nurse in measuring the patient's self concept. Psychological problems especially self-concept can be examined to improve

Abstract:

A theoretical framework of caring in nursing proposes nurses and patients have underlying vulnerabilities and needs with emotional and cognitive responses. These characteristics suffuse and influence the assumed roles of nurse and patient, which are manifest within the healthcare specific context. The aim—to develop conceptual and operational clarity of this framework for instrument development. The qualitative researcher’s techniques of concept analysis are utilized. The probabilistic view is used. Concept identification is prototypical. The components of the personal and professional self of the nurse and the personal and illness self of the patient are identified as is the communicative relationship posited within Habermas’ (1995) moral maturity framework. This has resulted in the development of an operational definition of caring in nursing for instrumentation.

Abstract:

Abstract In recent years, shortage of nurses, high turnover rate, low self-worth, and team instability have become increasingly serious. With the development of positive psychology, more and more nursing managers have begun to attach great importance to the mental health of nurses. Self-esteem, as one of the core indicators of individual mental health, has received extensive attention from researchers in different fields since its inception. This paper reviews and summarizes the research status and development trends of nurses’ self-esteem considering the aspects of self-esteem as a concept, assessment tools, significance, and intervention methods. At the same time, it also puts forward problems that need to be solved by undertaking research into nurses’ self-esteem, in order to provide a reference for further studies on nurses’ self-esteem.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to examine the influence of nurses’ self-concept (NSC) on clinical decision-making (CDM) among nursing students and hospital nurses. A further aim is to examine whether there is a difference in CDM and NSC between hospital nurses with various levels of experience and nursing students. A cross-sectional study was conducted during 2018 in the Faculty of Dental Medicine and Health and the University Hospital Center, in Osijek, Croatia, EU. The respondents consisted of 568 hospital nurses, and 129 BSc nursing students. Data were collected with the clinical decision-making in nursing scale (CDMNS) and the nurses’ self-concept questionnaire (NSCQ). There was no correlation between CDM and NSC in either students or hospital nurses. Hospital nurses generally had significantly higher scores in CDM than nursing students. On the other hand, students had a significantly higher total NSC level. The results of this study suggest that experience has a positive impact on nurses’ CDM skills. The high NSC estimated by students enables them to easily take up their clinical roles and approach the patient in a holistic manner, which is an attitude that gradually develops during studies and with clinical experience.

Abstract:

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of customer orientation, professional self-concept and belief of patient activation on caring behaviors of nurses in comprehensive nursing care units.Methods: The data were collected from 141 nurses in the comprehensive nursing care units of the general hospital in D-City using structured questionnaire from August 1 to August 30, 2019. Statistical analysis was performed using the IBM SPSS Statistics 25.0 program.Results: In regression analysis, the higher customer orientation (β=0.49) and belief of patient activation (β=0.33), the more the work period in clinical careers in current unit (β=0.17) and the higher professional self-concept (β=0.15), the more the caring behaviors are affected. This analysis showed 81.3% explanatory power.Conclusions: This study reveals that caring behaviors of nurses in the comprehensive nursing care units can be enhanced through the improvement of the customer orientation, belief of patient activation and professional self-concept. Therefore, this study suggests that the development and application of education programs to enhance customer orientation, professional self-concept and belief of patient activation is required for increasing the quality of nursing care and patient satisfaction with caring behaviors.

Abstract:

Leadership in nursing is needed in all levels of healthcare to ensure the delivery of excellence and quality nursing care. Sadly, the concept and impact of nursing leadership is often neglected in the healthcare system, especially in the aspect of general decision-making for the overall management of the healthcare system. This article is focused on the review of literature related to nursing leadership as an influential factor to better healthcare outcomes. This review took into account the concept of effective nurse leadership, the theoretical perspectives, competencies and general impacts on healthcare outcomes. From the study, it was noted that for effective leadership, nurses are to be enlightened on the expected leadership qualities for building relationships among nurses, interdisciplinary teams of the nursing profession and patients. Some leadership qualities identified include appearance, self-confidence, self-awareness, motivation, empathy, honesty, vision and purpose, integrity, emotional intelligence, social skills and abilities, commitment and passion. Others are humbleness, creativity and innovation, accountability, delegation, resilience, empowerment and teamwork. Despite the simplicity of the subject, there is a need for further research in this area to reinforce the implementation of nurse leaders experience in the general healthcare setting for efficient care delivery.

Abstract:

Background. Pain is commonly experienced following surgical procedures. Suboptimal management is multifactorial.Objectives. The primary objective was to assess whether patients used a device (Navimed) to self-report pain over and above a normal baseline of observations. Secondary outcome measures included comparison of pain scores and patient use of and feedback on the device.Methods. In a prospective randomized controlled trial, elective gynaecological surgery patients received standard postoperative pain care or standard care plus the Navimed, which allowed them to self-report pain and offered interactive self-help options.Results. 52 female patients, 26 in each of device and standard groups, did not differ in the frequency of nurse-documented pain scores or mean pain scores provided to nurses. The device group additionally reported pain on the device (means 18.50 versus 11.90 pain ratings per day,t(32)=2.75,p<0.001) that was significantly worse than reported to nurses but retrospectively rated significantly less anxiety. 80% of patients found the device useful.Discussion and Conclusion. This study demonstrates that patients used the Navimed to report pain and to help manage it. Further work is required to investigate the difference in pain scores reported and to develop more sophisticated software.

Abstract:

Purpose : This study aimed to verify the effectiveness of the clinical ladder system (CLS) by identifying the perception of the CLS, professional self-concept, self-efficacy, and organizational commitment among intensive care unit (ICU) nurses.Methods : Data were collected through a questionnaire survey of 173 nurses working in 11 ICUs at a tertiary hospital in Seoul.Results : The perception of the CLS, self-efficacy, and organizational commitment showed significant difference according to the CLS level. As a result of the partial Spearman correlation analysis after adjusting for demographic difference according to CLS (age, marital status, education, and clinical career), CLS positively correlated with the perception of the CLS (r=.16, p=.045), professional self-concept (r=.24, p=.001), and self-efficacy (r=.21, p=.007). On the contrary, organizational commitment negatively correlated with the perception of the CLS (r=-.43, p＜.001) and self-efficacy (r=-.32, p＜.001).Conclusion : The CLS is effective for professional self-concept and self-efficacy. However, specialists 2 nurses, who had high professional self-concept and self-efficacy, showed low level of organizational commitment. Thus, it is necessary to examine the factors of work burden and career plateau that are imposed after promotion and improve experience and planning according to the growth needs. Moreover, regular evaluation of the CLS will require hospital support to ensure that ICU nurses appreciate and actively participate in the support.

Abstract:

Phenomenology guided the researcher in uncovering the meaning of spiritual nursing care for 11 ill individuals with no religious affiliation. The participants experienced spiritual nursing care through the nurses’ extension of self, which occurred when the nurse saw the participants as unique individuals. Unfortunately, many participants experienced alienation by their nurses. An examination of programs of nursing education curricula at all levels for the inclusion of spiritual nursing care as a concept broader than that of religion is needed. Health initiatives would advance positive outcomes when including spiritual care in the total care needs of all patients.

Abstract:

The concept of quality of nursing care can vary across healthcare organizations, and many different factors may affect the quality of nursing care as perceived by nurses. Measuring satisfaction with quality of nursing care from the nurse’s perspective is important as a valid and reliable indicator of care quality. The purpose of this study was to measure the psychometric properties of a researcher-developed instrument measuring nurse satisfaction with quality of care. A sample of 200 nurses was randomly selected from three different cities in Saudi Arabia and surveyed with the Nurse Satisfaction with Quality of Care Scale, which is a self-administrated five-item scale. Exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and internal consistency analysis were conducted to assess aspects of the validity and reliability of the instrument. The results of exploratory factor analysis supported a one-factor structure that consisted of the five items. Confirmatory factor analysis results confirmed that the five items were integral to nurse satisfaction with quality of care. The Cronbach internal consistency of the scale was acceptable. The scale appeared to be a reliable and valid tool for assessing nurse perceptions of their satisfaction with the quality of care provided. Additional studies to further test psychometric properties of this scale in different contexts are warranted.

Abstract:

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the influencing factors of perceived safety culture, nursing work environment, and professional self-concept on patient safety care activities of nurse in small-medium sized hospitals.Methods: A cross-sectional survey was used. Participants were 186 nurses in seven small-medium sized hospitals of a metropolitan city, in Korea. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis.Results: The influencing factors of the patient safety care activities were perceived patient safety culture and professional self-concept. These two factors explained for 15.1% of the patient safety acre activities.Conclusions: Based on the result of this study, it is necessary to build a good patient safety culture and to develop a positive professional self-concept. The establishment of a positive safety culture should be prioritized to quickly recognized and sensitively accept problems related to patient safety and actively carry out patient safety nursing activity. In order to improve the professional self-concept, it is necessary to increase the social performance for voluntary cooperation and to recognize the self-categorization that the group to which one belongs is distinguished from other groups.

Abstract:

Decisions based on ethics confront nurses daily. In this account, a cardiac nurse struggles with the challenge of securing health care benefits for Justin, a patient within the American system of health care. An exercise therapy that is important for his well-being is denied. The patient’s nurse and an interested insurance agent develop a working relationship, resulting in a relational narrative based on Justin’s care. Gadow’s concept of a relational narrative and Keller’s concept of a relational autonomy guide this particular case. As an ethics framework influenced by feminist ethical theory, Gadow’s, Keller’s and Tisdale’s ideas demonstrate the fluidity with which the nurse and others can work while maintaining both autonomy and engagement without being self-sacrificing.
