Abstract:
Nursing documentation is vital to nursing care in hospitals. Literature suggests nursing documentation that contains evidence nursing care which has been planned and implemented have a significant relationship with nurses’ practice, particularly regarding the existence of advocacy. Despite the significance of nursing documentation in nursing practice, no study has been conducted and published on this crucial aspect of nursing practice, particularly in Malaysia. Hence, a qualitative design is utilised to explore how nurses in Malaysia demonstrate the element of advocacy in the context of their nursing documentation. A total of forty semi-structured interviews were conducted with nurses involved in completing the nursing documentation. Thematic analysis was used to identify categories and themes in nurses’ perceptions about the existence of advocacy in their documentation. Findings highlight that the nurses could comprehend and acknowledge the existence of advocacy within their documentation. These findings are likely to suggest to highlight the advocative roles of nursing documentation in nursing practice, besides the significance of education to improve advocacy among nurses in Malaysia.

Abstract:
Demand for a nursing career in Malaysia has increased, although it has not been a popular course of choice among students. Understanding the perceptions of students about nursing may help identify any misconception toward the profession and their consideration to choose nursing as a career. This study aimed to identify the perceptions of secondary school students about nursing and their potential interest in joining a nursing career. A cross-sectional study using convenience sampling was conducted among 155 students by administering a High School Students Self-Administered Questionnaire from three selected secondary schools in Kuantan, Pahang Malaysia. Overall, the respondents positively perceived the nursing profession, although several parts were viewed negatively. Despite having a positive notion about nursing, only 18.1% of the respondents were interested to select nursing as their career and a majority of them were women. In conclusion, no significant difference in perceptions about nursing and consideration to choose nursing as a career was found. Nevertheless, the image of nurses and a nursing career need to be improved in the eye of students and societies. In addition, the students were not aware of the benefits of nursing with several misconceptions of genders and doctor’s aid. Overall, the status of nursing in Malaysia should be enhanced to make it a valuable career.

Abstract:
The efficacy of high fidelity patient simulation (HFPS) over low fidelity patient manikins (LFPM) in improving learning outcomes among undergraduate nursing students in Malaysia remains unknown. The aim of this study is to compare learning outcomes (knowledge and critical thinking skills) using an adult code blue drill simulated program using HFPS versus LFPM among undergraduate nursing students in Malaysia. In an experimental study, final-year undergraduate nursing students ( N = 407) from three centers in Malaysia were trained in code blue management and assigned to either control (LFPM) or intervention (HFPS) group. Pre- and post-test assessment was conducted using 30-single best answer questions and the California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory. A repeated-measures analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) showed significant differences in knowledge levels (intervention, η2= 0.146; control, η2= 0.130) and critical thinking skills (intervention, η2= 0.119; control, η2= 0.066). Simulation-based education using HFPS is advantageous over LFPM in increasing knowledge and critical thinking skills in code blue management among nursing students.

Abstract:
Introduction: As COVID-19 Pandemic hit across the globe, the closure of higher institutions and the shifting to online platform has become the stress factors related to learning activities for the nursing students. Hence, this study was conducted among Malaysian undergraduate nursing students to determine the level of perceived stress and to examine the relationship between the stressors and the perceived stress level. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study using convenience sampling conducted among undergraduate nursing students in one public university in Malaysia. The study participants (n=201) had been recruited by distributing an online survey which was consisted of three parts; socio-demographic characteristics, stressor factors, and Perceived Stress Score (PSS-10). Results: Majority of the respondents had moderate stress (n=154, 76.6%) with the total mean PSS-10 was 21.29 (SD=±5.57). Significant differences in PSS-10 score were found in terms of level of study, satisfaction in nursing study, current living location, and negative life events (p<0.05). Conclusion: The results from the study indicated that most of the undergraduate nursing students had moderate stress and it is associated with level of study, satisfaction in nursing study, current living location and the present of negative life events. This finding could inform the nursing lecturers and the Malaysian educational institutions for establishing a mechanism of identification and support system for the nursing students associated with the stressors.

Abstract:
Introduction: Stress in nursing students has been documented in many studies and this will lead to various health problems. However, there is scanty research assessing the level of stress among nursing students during Covid-19 in Malaysia. Hence, this study aimed to assess the level of stress and its association with social and environmental factors amongst nursing students in Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Malaysia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted by random sampling among nursing students in Universiti Malaysia Sabah between March and May 2021. The primary outcome was stress symptoms, derived from the validated Perceived Stress Scale-10 (PSS) questionnaire. Socio-demographic, social, and environmental factors were also assessed. T-test was used to assess the associations between level of stress and social and environmental factors. Results: A total of 115 responses were received with the mean (SD) age of the students being 20.5 (1.3) years old. Of all the students, 84.9% were female, 54.6% received financial support from National Higher Education Fund Corporation and 46.2% were in nursing Year 2 followed by the nursing year 1 (28.6%) and nursing year 3 (25.2%). The students in this study reported a higher level of stress. The students who reported most or all the time being trapped in a hostel (p<0.01), challenges of online classes (p=0.03), and catching up with class projects (p=0.03) had a higher level of stress compared to those who reported none or little or some of the factors. Conclusion: This study showed that social and environmental factors may play a role in determining the stress level among nursing students. Hence, authorities should foster supporting strategies to lower student stress and tackles the unwanted consequences.

Abstract:
Nursing documentation is the key to nursing care in hospitals. According to Pirie (2011) and Wang et al. (2011), nursing documentation that contains evidence regarding the comprehensive level of nursing care has a strong correlation with nurses’ professional practice. Nurses in Malaysia are trained to abide by the Code of Professional Practice (1998); therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore how nurses demonstrate the elements of professionalism within their documentation from a Malaysian context. Despite the significance of nursing documentation in nursing practice, no study has been conducted and published on this crucial aspect of nursing practice in Malaysia. Hence, there is a need to explore how nurses demonstrate the elements of professionalism within their documentation. This study utilises a mixed methods approach (triangulation - convergence model design) in exploring how nurses in Malaysia demonstrate the elements of professionalism within their nursing documentation. This mixed approach enables greater understanding of nurses’ views on their documentation and its influence on the way the documentation is prepared. A quantitative approach is employed to analyse retrospective nursing documentation, where a total of 655 case notes were selected from the five participating hospitals in Malaysia. An innovative data extraction tool based on the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO, 2007) model of Professionalism in Nursing was used in the analysis. The RNAO (2007), proposed eight attributes of professionalism in nursing: i) accountability, ii) advocacy, iii) innovation and visionary, iv) ethics and values, v) autonomy, vi) knowledge, vii) spirit of inquiry and, viii) collegiality and collaboration. The presence of all these attributes was assessed in the 655 selected case notes. Simultaneously, a total of 40 semi-structured interviews were conducted with nurses involved in completing the 655 reviewed case notes. In this context, thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006) was used to identify categories and themes in nurses’ accounts of their documentation, in relation to the elements of professionalism in nursing. In summary, the quantitative findings reveal that there is evidence of the elements of professionalism exhibited in the nursing documentation among the selected case notes. However, the qualitative findings prove that the nurses could not demonstrate their comprehension of the elements of professionalism in their documentation. Several factors and influences were identified, which could be detrimental to nurses’ understanding of the elements of professionalism in nursing documentation, such as the working culture and common cultural values, educational backgrounds, different workplace settings and recognition of the profession. Additionally, the findings of this study point towards the creation of an alternative approach to explore and understand the elements of professionalism in nursing within the scope of this study. The findings of this study suggest that there is room for further, extensive development of nursing documentation and future studies in many other health settings in Malaysia. The findings of this study could inform responsible authorities in health care and nursing educators to focus or to re-emphasise the importance of ensuring the good quality of nursing documentation in Malaysia. Furthermore, the findings could be used as a baseline to guide the relevant nursing authorities and personnel in Malaysia when dealing with complicated documentation issues and to improve the standard of the nursing documentation from a professional perspective in relation to the nursing practice.

Abstract:
Background: The rights of children to freedom of expression and receiving information are underpinned by Articles 12 and 13 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) (1989), which was ratified by the Malaysian government in 1995. There has been increasing shifts toward recognising the importance of children’s rights with many initiatives to realise and uphold the rights of children in Malaysia. However, no previous studies of children’s participation have been conducted in Malaysia. The aim of this study was to explore children’s participation in decisions regarding their nursing care from the perspective of the children, their parents, and nurses in an oncological ward in Malaysia. Methods: This was a focused ethnographic study. Participant observation was carried out with 61 participants (21 children, 21 parents, and 19 nurses) in the paediatric oncology-haematological ward, Malaysia. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 21 participants (6 children, 7 parents, and 8 nurses). The existing documents pertinent to the research focus were examined to validate the participant observations and interview findings. Data were analysed using Roper and Shapira’s (2000) focused ethnographic data analysis techniques. Findings: There were different degrees of the participation of children in decisions among children diagnosed with leukaemia, including: being physically present, being informed, being consulted where children can express their wishes and opinions during the provision of nursing care, and being able to make their own decisions in relation to their nursing care. The degrees to which children participated in decisions fluctuated throughout the course of their hospitalization; moving from lesser degrees of participation (passive participant) to greater involvement (active participant) and vice-versa. The extent to which children participated in decisions were significantly influenced by the children’s preferences for participation. The preferences of children also fluctuated over the course of their illness and treatment. There were several factors contributing to children’s participation in decisions including; i) interpersonal relations in the child-parent-nurse interactions; ii) experiences of the child (veteran or novice); iii) attitude of nurses; iv) parental role; and v) the ward policy. Conclusion: The children want to be involved and really appreciate participation in communication and decisions but their opportunities for participation are somewhat limited. This study calls for a flexible model to assess children’s preferences for participation and different forms of participation for children in relation to decision-making in paediatric oncology.

Abstract:
Transnational Higher Education (TNHE) post-registration top-up nursing degree programmes are relatively new in Malaysia and their impact in clinical settings is unknown. This research interprets Malaysian nurses’ experiences of such programmes and their perspectives of the extent TNHE theoretical knowledge has been applied in clinical settings. The contextual framework was established by drawing on a range of relevant dominant discourses, i.e. TNHE, nurse education, continuous professional development, theory-practice link in nursing, and culture and its influences, including coping with and adjusting to new ways of learning. Hermeneutic phenomenology and the ethnographic principle of cultural interpretation were used to explore the views of eighteen Malaysian nurses from two UK and one Australian TNHE universities (determined by convenience and snowball sampling methods) to enable data saturation. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to enable the nurses’ voices to define, describe and evaluate their TNHE experiences that were focused on personal and professional development, implementation and reaction of others towards change. In addition to the interviews, three threads of my own personal, professional and researcher experiences were reflected upon, to provide the contextual lens to shape the research process and situate the work firmly in the practice context. Data was analysed using thematic analysis. Four pre-determined key areas drawn from the literature were investigated and eight new sub-themes emerged. Findings indicated nurses’ improved self-confidence, knowledge, questioning skills and professionalism. The extent to which TNHE theory was applied in clinical practice was unable to be determined due to conflicting perceptions, contradicting views and restricted number of nurse-led examples. The main contribution this thesis offers to practice is what the voices of nurses tell about their experiences in TNHE programmes and in applying the taught theory in clinical settings. This study indicates enhanced application of theoretical knowledge in practice for improved quality and culturally competent patient care is unlikely to occur under current TNHE arrangements. Nurses’ motives for enrolling were mainly to obtain the high status western degree and the extrinsic benefits of a financial incentive and promotion. However, drawing on their resilience, nurses developed self and professional perspective transformation. The research provides new insights to inform continuous professional education policy for nurses, employers and the Malaysian Nursing Board, and can assist TNHE provider institutions to improve their programme delivery.

Abstract:
Background: Effective communication is vital to establish a patient-nurse relation and in order for the nurse to deliver good nursing care. Mistakes and errors are more frequent when there is a language barrier between the nurse and the patient. Method: The study was made as a qualitative interview study with a phenomenological analysis. Aim: Describe how Malaysian nurses deal with language barriers during meetings with patients with another language. Result: To deliver good nursing care to patient with another language could be difficult depending on what strategies the nurses used: how nurses experience the effectiveness of non-verbal communication, how interpreters were used and who interpreted during the patient meeting, strategies nurses used when interpreter was not an option, nurses’ interest in learning about the patient’s culture. Conclusion: To overcome language barriers is complex and often more than one strategy is needed. Patient safety is compromised when there were language barriers between the nurse and the patient.

Abstract:
Global medical travel has transformed medical travel/tourism facilitator's role, making it more sophisticated and globally competitive with their presence on the internet, and providing medical tourism packages catering to patient-centered healthcare needs. The important role played by medical tourism facilitators cannot be ignored along with rules and regulations required to accredit these medical travel companies. They act as mediators between the potential patients and the private healthcare providers, physicians in the global medical tourism supply chain, along with airlines and hotel, thus, reducing a medical traveler's worries regarding surgery abroad. Facilitators assist the potential medical tourists to plan and make healthcare decisions for travelling abroad, choosing and matching the patient with the specialty hospital for surgery, country and making all travel, accommodation and visa arrangements prior to travel, coordination between doctor and patient, personal nursing attendant, follow-up care and possibility of sightseeing, rest and recovery at the host-country of treatment. Thus, the chapter examines the reasons for the growth of global healthcare through medical travel/tourism in developing countries such as India, Thailand, Mexico, Poland and Malaysia and identifies the role, rules and regulations required for accredited medical tourism facilitators to connect patients with the healthcare providers in various countries to meet specific healthcare needs.

Full text
Abstract:
Malaysia is moving towards a developed country status and it is imperative that the healthcare provided be at a higher standard than it is today. As members of the healthcare team, nurses play an essential role in the provision of healthcare. As such it is timely that nurses’ education be upgraded. As most of them only have a certificate or diploma in nursing, one way to upgrade the nurses is by providing opportunities for a baccalaureate degree. However, due to the shortage of nurses, nurses find it a challenge to enroll in a full-time on-campus programme. One way to help nurses meet the challenge is by providing an online distance learning programme to Malaysian nurses. And, to ensure the success of the online distance learning programme, it was realized that the nursing students need to be adequately prepared for an online learning environment. How much preparation will be determined, among other things, by their prior experience and skill in using technology as well as by their belief and attitude towards online distance learning. A survey was conducted on a cohort group of students during a face-to-face precourse orientation, that is, prior to the start of the online program. The findings of the survey are presented and discussed in the paper and implications for the future are highlighted.
