Arunasalam, Nirmala Devi. "Malaysian nurses’ views: Local versus Transnational Higher Education." BORDER CROSSING 6, no. 1 (June 17, 2017): 188–205. http://dx.doi.org/10.33182/bc.v7i1.485.
Full textAbstract:
This paper reports the findings of a study undertaken with Malaysian nurses who studied for a locally provided part-time post-registration top-up Nursing Degree versus those who studied on a Transnational Higher Education (TNHE) programme. Both types of programmes are bridging courses that allow registered nurses to upgrade their Diploma qualifications to Degree level. What is not sufficiently explored in available literature is nurses’ rationales for choosing a local programme over TNHE programme. Using hermeneutic phenomenology, six Malaysian nurses (chosen by snowball sampling method) were interviewed, in English and Bahasa Malaysia (Malaysian language). Thematic analysis was used to analyse data. The structure of the course and taught theory influenced the nurses’ choice to study on a local programme: the deciding factor was the practice component that ensured a theory-practice connection. The findings principally provide insights to TNHE providers and may guide them to enhance their teaching delivery, support and courses.

The study aims to use concept mapping as a teaching approach in the clinical setting. The concept mapping care plan (CMCP) was developed, then validated using the Delphi technique. There were 218 respondents who participated in the survey. This study used pre and post-tests. The mean score of CMCP during clinical practices for the experimental group was 65.23 as compared with the control group which was 59.33. There were significant differences in the clinical performance of both groups. CMCP is a practical assessment tool for nursing educators to prepare nursing students to think critically and perform effectively after graduation.

Full textAbstract:
Social and cultural backgrounds, as well as understanding, play key roles in workforce development and human resource shortages, which are associated with the transition to nursing education and teaching from frontline nursing practices. A qualitative method, with the direction of the general inductive approach, was employed in this study. The researcher collected information from 18 male nursing educators who switched their senior roles (from the frontline and practicing fields to nursing education) at nursing schools in South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, China, and Malaysia. Three interview sessions were used to collect information. Three themes were merged from the information: (i) gender-oriented knowledge, teaching and learning; (ii) respect; and (iii) health promotion. More importantly, participants advocated that their male roles and identities provided uniqueness to patients, students, parents, and the general public concerning Asian customs and practices. Based on the social cognitive career theory, personal goals and achievements of career satisfaction took important roles. Although the general public may not agree with these career decisions, due to gender and social biases, participants continued to contribute their energy and knowledge in the health and social caring professions.

Full textAbstract:
In the previous studies, it was found that many nursing students have the highest satisfaction towards clinical learning environment (CLE). CLE has an impact on nursing students in preparing them in terms of knowledge and providing quality care for patients. The objective of this study was to determine the level of satisfaction among nursing students in the Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre (UKMMC) towards CLE. A purposive sampling technique was used in quantitative and cross-sectional descriptive design. Ninety-three of Year 1 to Year 4 nursing students participated by answering modified self-reported Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision and Nurse Teacher (CLES + T) scale questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of three sections; sociodemographic, clinical placement and five dimensions of satisfaction towards CLE (pedagogical atmosphere, leadership style of the head nurse, premises of nursing in the ward, preceptor relationship and role of the preceptor). In medical ward, 51.6% of nursing students had high satisfaction towards CLE and 48.4% reported to have low satisfaction. Whereas for surgical, orthopaedic, homecare and critical area wards reported to have 50% for both high and low satisfaction towards CLE. The relationship between year of study, gender and level of satisfaction towards CLE among nursing students in UKMMC were statistically not significant (p = 0.715, p = 0.139). Among the five dimensions of satisfaction towards CLE, leadership style of the head nurse was the highest (72.0%) and the lowest (30.1%) was from pedagogical atmosphere. This study showed that regardless of specific clinical placement for the nursing students, their satisfaction towards CLE were almost similar and the leadership style of the head nurse had the highest impact. Perhaps, the impact of involvement of the head nurse in the clinical teaching should be explored further in the future.

Full textAbstract:
Incidence rate and patterns of physical restraint use were examined based on a cross-sectional study in 22 wards of a large teaching hospital in Malaysia. Results indicated that the highest rate of physical restraint (19.7%) was reported from neurology–neurosurgery wards. “Un-cooperative for electroconvulsive therapy” and “trying to pull out catheters” were the most commonly reported reasons to use restraint in psychiatric and non-psychiatric wards, respectively. There were some relationships between patterns of physical restraint in this study. Exploring the incidence rate and patterns of physical restraint is important so that effective strategies can be formulated to minimize using restraint in hospitals.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the perceptions of International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) Kuantan nursing students, clinical nurse instructors, and staff nurses of the support offered to student nurses during learning in a clinical setting. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was carried out on undergraduate nursing students (n=118), and clinical instructors (n=8) at the faculty or Kulliyyah of Nursing, IIUM, using the Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision and Nurse Teacher (CLES-T) survey. Descriptive analysis was used to investigate the sociodemographic data, and further statistical tests were conducted with regard to their levels of perception. Results: Overall, the participants perceived the clinical learning environment to be good. There was no difference in perception between nursing students and the clinical nurse instructors (p>0.05). There was no significant difference in terms of gender and levels of perception (p>0.05). This study did find a significant relationship between level of study and area of posting for students and perception levels (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study showed that the majority of the students had positive perceptions of the clinical learning environment, supervision, and nurse teachers. The school provided sufficient support within the clinical learning environment in term of supervision and nurse teachers. These results will help the nursing school in terms of upgrading the clinical learning environment and encouraging collaboration with hospital management to provide a good clinical learning experience for students.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction: Mentoring is one of the important elements in education as it includes orientation to enhance the tutors’ role, integrating into the education community, teaching and leadership development, scholarship, and service skills. Despite the positive feedbacks and comments on mentoring program, the knowledge and attitude of students towards any problems faced are still unknown or unclear. Thus, this study aims to investigate the knowledge and attitude among nursing students on mentoring program in Kulliyyah of Nursing in IIUM Kuantan. Methods: A quantitative cross- sectional study with convenience sampling was conducted on 188 undergraduate nursing students between October to December 2020. Data were collected via online platform (google form) invited through WhatsApp or email. The questionnaires consist of sociodemographic profile, knowledge, and attitude towards mentoring program. Results: Most students age between 22 to 23 years old (59.5%). Students mainly perceived good knowledge and positive attitude towards mentoring program. There were no association seen between sociodemographic profile and knowledge towards mentoring program (gender p=0.120; age p=0.165; year of study p=0.188) and attitude to mentoring program (gender p=0.241; age p=0.442; year of study p=0.720). However, there was a correlation between knowledge and attitude of nursing students towards mentoring program in Kulliyyah of Nursing (p<0.05). Conclusion: The study revealed there were no effect of sociodemographic profile on knowledge and attitude, however demonstrated of association between their knowledge and attitudes to mentoring program. Thus, the study basically showed that by having a good knowledge on the program, they will tend to have good attitudes and involved in the program accordingly. This finding further implied that more awareness on mentoring program should be executed to boost the student knowledge and attitude. Further research should be explored to look onto students’ needs and how to assist the student through mentoring.

Full textAbstract:
Patient education is the process of influencing patient behaviour with using a combination method such as teaching, counselling and behaviour modification techniques to increasing the knowledge and maintain or improve health. Patient education is one way of communication between patient and nurses, which provides the necessary knowledge for enhancing patient care and potentially affecting their health outcomes. By doing the exploration on the current patient education practice, the study perhaps to overcome the issue of hospital readmission and patient able to manage their activities of daily living after receiving effective patient education. The study aims to investigate the perception and practice of patient education among nurses in one of the public hospital in Malaysia. The objective of this study was to identify the perception and factors influencing the practice of patient education among public hospital nurses. Stratified Random Sampling was used for the sampling technique. A total of 246 staff nurses were involved in this study. A self-administered questionnaire was used in this study for obtained data. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) for Windows, version 21 was used to analyse the data. The study revealed that most of the nurses perceived patient education as a high priority in nursing care and it was nursing responsibility to provide patient education. Findings indicated that lack of time, inadequate staffing and lack of knowledge were significant factors that influenced the practice of patient education. Years of working experience among the nurses was found to be significantly associated with priority for patient teaching. In conclusion, public hospital nurses were having a positive attitude towards patient education but could not practice completely. In order to enhance patient education, a more strategy is required to address inadequate staffing, lack of time, and lack of knowledge. This study needs to be extended into further research in order to enhance the nurses’ roles as patient educators. Keywords: Patient education, nurses, practice eISSN: 2398-4287© 2020. The Authors.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Intravenous therapy is an integral part of professional nursing practice. Nurses have a responsibility to recognise risk factors for phlebitis. Aims: To investigate nurses' perceptions of risk factors for phlebitis in a tertiary teaching hospital in north-east Peninsular Malaysia. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 199 randomly selected nurses were surveyed for their perceptions of risk factors for phlebitis using a self-administered questionnaire. Findings: More than half of the nurses (56.8%) had a good perception levels of risk factors for phlebitis. There was a significant association between the clinical area and nurses' perceptions of risk factors for phlebitis (p=0.04). Nurses working in medical, orthopaedic, and surgical areas had slightly better perceptions than nurses working in multidisciplinary and oncology areas. Conclusion: These findings suggest that nurses need to continually improve their knowledge about risk factors for phlebitis to ensure safer nursing practice.

Introduction: Physical activity (PA) can improve survival and quality of life in chronic diseases including cancer. Given the scarcity of research on nurses’ beliefs that used a psychology perspective, the purpose of this study was to determine nurses’ beliefs about the benefits and barriers to physical activity promotion for cancer patients at a tertiary teaching hospital in Malaysia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed on nurses (n=104) at one Malaysian tertiary teaching hospital, using a simple random sampling method. A self-administered online questionnaire was surveyed from January until March 2021. The data was analysed using Pearson correlation analysis and an independent T-test with a significant level of p ≤.0.05. Results: 80.8% of nurses perceived the benefits of physical activity promotion for improving mental health in cancer patients. Lack of time (30.8%), patients appearing tired or unwilling to cooperate (20.2%), and a lack of knowledge (16.3%) were the barriers to physical activity. There was no correlation between beliefs about the benefits of physical activity promotion and age (p=0.908), working experience (p=0.982), ward type (p=0.666) or the average number of cancer patients cared (p=0.144). Conclusion: Nurses’ perspectives on the benefits of physical activity promotion for cancer patients support the use of planned behaviour theory for evidence-based nursing practice. There were, however, barriers to encouraging cancer patients to engage in physical activity. As a result, as a setting for health promotion, the tertiary teaching hospital must raise awareness, facilitate, and encourage nurses to engage in physical activity promotion behaviours.

Background: Cultural intelligence is important for studying, working, and living in multicultural societies. Previous studies have indicated that training and learning support are important for improving students’ cultural intelligence. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of institutional support on cultural intelligence. Methods: 933 nursing students in three countries, among Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand, answered a rating scale questionnaire. A structural equation model was used to examine the effect of institutional support on cultural intelligence. Results: Institutional support had a statistically significant effect on cultural intelligence, with an effect size of 0.57. Conclusion: For promoting cultural intelligence divided into three aspects, the first concerns the implementation of multicultural experiences in curricula; the second involves extra-curricular activities for being applied in multicultural situations; and the last regards encouraging teachers to realize the importance of culture and integrating cultural content in their teaching and in the students’ learning.

Full textAbstract:
Students have a myriad of preferences of the various curricular elements especially teaching-learning methods, teaching aids and content. Taking radiological anatomy as a prototype, the responses from medical students in the clinical years regarding the rationale for preferences for the curricular elements were studied in a private university in Malaysia. The students’ responses to the research question were analysed qualitatively through thematic analysis. Analysis was conducted until no new themes emerged and data saturation was complete. The final themes were subjected to investigator triangulation. While searching answers for our research question of why students prefer certain curricular elements, the sub-themes that emerged were deep approach to learning, enabling transferability of knowledge to workplace, managing cognitive load and suiting learning styles. These sub-themes were categorised into two large themes namely student interaction with learning environment and relevancy of content to context. This prototype study sheds light on students preferred curricular elements. Curricular elements which employ effective student interaction with the learning environment and ensure relevancy to the context are highly sought. It could be concluded that active learning entailing studentcentred methods and clinically relevant content is most preferred by students. This prototype study provides potential findings that benefit other disciplines as well.

Full textAbstract:
Patient safety is attributed to the responsibility of each component that exists in the healthcare system in an organization. Accidents may happen based on as a result of lack of attention, mistaken perception, or improper cognition or attention such as distraction [1]. Nurses are considered to carry high job stress, and low sleep quality problems due to uneven working shifts compared to other occupations [2]. Nurses are often associated with overwhelming workloads and busy schedules, and this situation could compromise their work performance and patient safety [3].
This study aims to determine the prevalence of job stress and the patient safety culture among the nurses in the East Coast Teaching Hospital, Malaysia. There were 188 nurses who were randomly selected and agreed to participate in this study. The assessment was conducted using validated questionnaires, comprised of Expanded Nursing Stress Scales and Safety Attitude Questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and Pearson’s correlation test.
The study showed that 61.5% of the respondents suffered mild job stress, while 1.4% experienced severe job stress (Table 1). More than half of the respondents (74.1%) gave negative responses towards patient safety culture at their workplace showing their low awareness on patient safety culture (Table 2). Stress recognition factor (80.4%) was reported as the main factor for the negative response on patient safety culture among respondents. There was a significant inverse linear relationship between job stress and patient safety culture (r=-0.338, p<0.001).
The result revealed that the majority of the nurses enrolled in this study experienced unsatisfactory patient safety culture levels. Most of the respondents expressed appreciation for their job, however, several other domains received less positive responses. The overall patient safety culture can be improved by providing measures to correspond with the stress factors experience by the nurses.

Introduction: The readiness of novice critical care nurses (NCCN) to perform efficiently has been doubted globally. Studies have reported that novice nurses have issues with their confidence and competence in handling critical patients in ICU. Their lack of confidence and competence may promote more harm to the patient’s condition study aim is to explore the experience of novice critical care nurses when embarking in critical care areas.Methods: This study was carried out using a general qualitative design. Data were collected through an in-depth interview in exploring NCCN experiences, challenges, and needs while working in the critical care setting. They were recruited from a teaching hospital located in East Coast Malaysia. Data were organised and analysed manually using the thematic analysis approach. Finding: A total of 20 participants was recruited for the study. The majority of the participants are Malay, female, and graduated with Diploma in Nursing from Malaysia. The study reported three main themes; (1) Handling complex patients (2) Familiarised with the equipment and environment, and (3) Mixed feelings during the transition. Themes revealed in the study have proposed that NCCN is eager for support when embarking in the areas.Conclusion: Acknowledge the struggle faced by the NCCN may seem small to others. But it can free up some space in their mind to continue the growth expected and needed from them. Therefore, it could be beneficial to the health setting and patients’ care.

Full textAbstract:
Anatomy is the foundation of medicine. Having adequate anatomy knowledge would improve medical students’ comprehension of pathology and patient management. The evolving scenario in anatomy education has created a changing educational environment in medical schools. Since educational environment influence the students’ motivation and ability to learn, it is pertinent to measure anatomy education environment as a feedback mechanism tool for further improvement in the curriculum. This study was performed to measure pre-clinical medical students’ perception of the anatomy education environment in Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) by using a validated 25-item inventory, known as the Anatomy Education Environment Measurement Inventory (AEEMI). The inventory was distributed online to 171 first- and second-year medical students to measure their perception of anatomy teachers and instructors, anatomy knowledge, their intrinsic interest and efforts in learning anatomy, anatomy learning resources and histology practical facilities. The analysis revealed that most of the items show “positive area” indicated by score of more than four. The first-year medical students showed a significantly higher perception of the anatomy education environment compared to the second-year medical students (p ≤ 0.05). However, both cohorts perceived an “area of improvement” for histology practical facilities (score of 3 to 3.99). In conclusion, the students were pleased with the anatomy education experience in UPM except for histology practical facilities that may require further improvement. The use of virtual microscopy in histology teaching would be a good alternative to overcome the problem in histology teaching in UPM, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction: Early Warning Sign (EWS) is a tool made up of vital signs chart and scoring to detect any changes in patient so that immediate and appropriate care can be further determined and provided. The objectives of the study are to assess the level of knowledge, attitudes, and practice of nurses in assessing patient using EWS scoring and to identify association between socio-demographic with knowledge, attitudes, and practice, as well as to determine the associations between knowledge with attitudes, attitudes with practice and knowledge of nurses in assessing patient using EWS scoring. Methods: A quantitative cross- sectional study with convenience sampling study was conducted on 132 nurses from medical, surgical and orthopedics wards in Sultan Ahmad Shah Medical Centre (SASMEC) from November 2020 until January 2021. Printed questionnaires were distributed to the nurses in English language. The questionnaire consisted of two parts. Part A was about socio-demographic data (area and on years of nursing practice, & service, area of practice, educational level, as well as whether holding post-basic/ advance course certificate, attending life support training and ICU outreach participant). Part B was about knowledge, attitudes, and practices of EWS. Data analysis was interpreted in descriptive and inferential analysis using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20.0. Results: A total of 108 respondents involved in the study represents 82% response rate. Majority of respondents scored low in knowledge questions with grade F (n=106, 98.3%). One respondent scored grade D, correctly answering 8 over 13 questions (62%). Only one respondent obtained grade B with 85% score. Based on the result, there are more participants (n=58, 53.7%) achieving good attitudes while respondents with poor attitudes were (n=50, 46.3%). Moreover, 59 respondents (54.6%) have higher practice level than mean score, indicating good EWS practice. The remaining 49 respondents (45.4%) scored below the mean score cut off point indicating poor practice. The mean values are different depending on working areas in terms of attitudes and practice. The association between attitudes and practice (r= 0.641, p-value<0.01) is confirmed having a positive and strong correlation. Conclusion: The study revealed that despite having poor knowledge on EWS, the nurses have demonstrated good attitudes and practice in detecting patients’ progressive deteriorating conditions; thus, confirming that there are associations in area of practice with attitudes and practice. The results also shows that there is a significant difference between attitudes and practice of nurses in assessing patient using EWS with (p- value< 0.05).

Full textAbstract:
Clinical competency is the core of the medical curriculum. Careful ongoing evaluation of clinical competency is required to ensure continuous reviewing for curriculum development. The objective of this study was to investigate self-perceptions of clinical competency of fresh medical graduates using the Kirkpatrick framework – the most convenient and widely used model for measuring clinical competency. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 50 fresh medical graduates of Widad University College, Malaysia in 2019 using a standardised questionnaire containing 43-items of competency. Respondents were asked to rate self-perceptions of his/her competency in these attributes using a five-point Likert scale against each attribute, where 5 = always competent and 1 = never competent. The response rate was 92%. Out of 43 items, graduates were always competent in taking clinical history and examining a patient thoroughly; frequently competent in eight attributes; sometimes competent in 29; and occasionally competent in four. The graduates have not yet started their houseman-training; and thus, got fewer chances to practice all the procedures. It is expected that graduates’ competency will improve during their houseman training. There is scope for improvement, as faculty need to pay more attention to improving student competency by arranging additional training. The teaching of clinical competency also needs integration with the pre-clinical phase for early exposure. The findings have direct implications for faculty development towards competency-based education that would bridge the gap between education and practice. This study offers other medical schools a window towards comprehensive use of competency tools to assess the competency of their graduates.

Faculty development programmes (FDPs) are recognised to be effective mechanisms by which to enhance medical education. They cover various domains of both the clinical and non-clinical environments; however, the available data on these programmes are insufficient. The aim of this study was to explore the domains covered in FDPs conducted in Malaysian public medical schools. A qualitative approach was used for this study, which involved 30 participants from five Malaysian medical schools in 2019. The inclusion criteria for the study were (a) participants were lecturers who had served at least five years, (b) participants had experience with FDPs, and (c) participants were medical doctors. Trainee lectures were excluded from the study. Document analysis and focus group discussions were utilised for the collection of data. The data were analysed using the ATLAS.ti software and the inductive thematic analysis approach. The data analysis indicated three themes (personal attributes, professional attributes and curriculum management); six categories (communication skills, teaching and learning methods, e-learning, student management, assessment and research methodology) and 13 sub-categories namely, interpersonal communication, intrapersonal communication, adult learning, instructional models, problem-based learning (PBL), clinical-based learning (CBL), team-based learning (TBL), multiple-choice question (MCQ), single best answer (SBA), objective structured clinical examination (OSCE), standard setting, qualitative research and quantitative research. This study demonstrates the significant role played by FDPs in Malaysian public medical schools. Medical faculties are advised to incorporate all these domains into their development programmes.

Full textAbstract:
The outbreak of COVID-19 had significantly impacted the healthcare system, placing it under tremendous strain. Nurses were shown to have suffered the impact of the pandemic, suggested traumatization and estimated a mass turnover intention among nurses globally due to the pandemic [1]. The objective of this cross-sectional study is to assess the prevalence of work-related stress and turnover intention among nurses in the Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (Hospital USM). This hospital is a teaching hospital with 830 beds that offers various specialties recognized as Hybrid COVID Hospital in managing patients.
This study utilized multi-stage sampling. The population was stratified into three strata which were, Medical-Surgical wards, Specialty wards (Pediatric, Obstetrics and Gynecology), and Critical Care wards. Next, the wards were selected through a simple random method. The nurses from the selected wards who follow inclusion criteria; nurses with grade U29 or U32 (KUP) with at least one year of working experience [2] were invited to join the study. A total of 365 nurses participated in this study by answering a self-administered questionnaire through Google Forms sent to them. The questionnaire included three parts; Part A sociodemographic data, Part B Nurse Stress Index (NSI) with scoring ranging from 30-150 and Part C Turnover Intention Scale (TIS-6) with a scoring of 9-18[3]. The NSI is categorized into four categories: 30-60= no pressure, 61-90= very little pressure, 91-120= moderate pressure and 121-150=extreme pressure[3]. As for TIS-6, a score <18 indicates a desire to stay whereas ≥18 indicates a desire to leave [3].
The collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 26.0. Sociodemographic characteristics, the prevalence of work-related stress and turnover intention were analyzed descriptively. Pearson correlation test was used to analyze the correlation between work-related stress and turnover intention. Nearly half of the nurses experienced little (40.8%) to moderate (42.5%) level of work-related stress however 73.3% of the nurses reported that they did not have the intention to leave (Table 1 and Table 2). The mean score of work-related stress and turnover intention showed that the nurses were in a moderate level of stress (90.78), with low turnover intention (16.42). Next, the findings showed a significant and positive correlation between work-related stress and turnover intention (r= 0.559, p< 0.001) (Table 3).
This study found that work-related stress was significant among nurses although the data were collected towards the end of the pandemic approaching endemic phase. This could be explained by the uncertainty of the disease which was among the factors that could contribute to stress among frontliners [4]. Although the stress level is significant, the nurses in this study have low intention to leave. This could be possibly due to the job security working in government sector as this study was done in a semi-government hospital where the nurses receives benefits and securities such as salary remuneration and pension scheme[5]. Findings of the study shows a positive correlation between work-related stress and turnover intention. It is known that prolonged stress causes negative impact towards the physical and mental health of nurses, subsequently being the contributing factor towards turnover intention[6].
Nevertheless, this study implies that healthcare personnel should be alert regarding the issues and consequences related to work-related stress and turnover intention. Appropriate strategies or recommendations should be done to improve nurses’ satisfaction and addressing issues related that surround the nursing practice environment to improve the quality of work life among nurses and thus, improve the quality of care delivered and patient safety, thus retaining highly skilled nurses.

This study is an attempt to survey the burnout level of female teachers in Malaysia and determine the likely factors that are associated with this phenomenon. The subjects of the study were 437 female teachers from primary, secondary, and tertiary levels. A demographic questionnaire was used to collect the data regarding the individual characteristics (e.g., marital status, number of children, age, and teaching experience) and organizational factors (e.g., teaching level and workload). The Maslach Burnout Inventory-Educator Survey (MBI-ES) (Maslach, Jackson, & Schwab, 1986) was also employed to collect the data concerning the burnout levels of the teachers in the three dimensions of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. Descriptive and univariate statistics were used in the data analysis. It was found that the number of children, level of teaching, age, and years of teaching experience were significant indicators of burnout among the female teachers, while marital status and workload were not significantly related to their burnout syndrome. The implications and recommendations are also presented.

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.

The Covid-19 pandemic has affected the education sectors globally. The sudden shift from traditional face to face learning to online teaching and learning brings various challenges to English teachers, particularly in tertiary institutions in Malaysia and Indonesia. Hence, the aim of this study is to examine the online teaching and learning challenges faced by teachers teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) in Islamic tertiary institutions in Malaysia and teachers teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL) in Indonesia during the Covid-19 pandemic. The qualitative research design used in this study was a case study using focus group interviews (FGI), individual open-ended responses via Google Form and a discussion thread via Whatsapp. Purposive sampling was used, and 10 English teachers from Islamic tertiary institutions in Malaysia and Indonesia were chosen as the participants in this study. The data in this study was analysed through NVIVO applications and categorized according to themes. The findings revealed that among the challenges English teachers faced in ESL/EFL online teaching and learning are a lack of technological skills to teach online, constraints in terms of internet accessibility and devices used for teaching and learning, and effective interaction in online teaching and learning. The findings from this study could potentially be utilised to plan strategies and produce practical solutions to overcome the challenges in conducting online teaching and learning among English teachers in any tertiary learning institutions in Malaysia and Indonesia in the future.

Extreme workload and poor working environment have a negative impact on the emotional and physical statuses among nurses. The study has contributed to evaluate work-life balance and its related factors among teaching hospital nurses. It was aimed to examine the work-life balance and its related factors among teaching hospital nurses. A cross-sectional study using a universal sampling technique was conducted. 1002 nurses were included from the Teaching hospital of Klang Valley, Malaysia. The instrument was adapted from NIOSH Generic Job Stress Questionnaire and QoL questionnaire from WHO, and it was used to measure the quality of work-life balance. Non-work activities, job requirement, supervisor support, job satisfaction, manageability, social and environmental variables have independently influenced work-life balance among nurses. Furthermore, quality of life variables has positively influenced the work-life balance (P<0.050). Work life balance and organizational commitment can have a positive relationship. Whereas, Nurses working in fixed shifts were observed with greater work-life balance as compared to the nurses working in multiple shifts. A friendly environment in the professional sector plays a major role for developing motivation and enthusiasm among workers.

This paper discusses an approach to teaching and learning in multi-disciplinary university settings using case study based scenarios presented using films as a key teaching methodology. The production of four films (The Video store, Perception Airlines, Tranquil Whispers, and Middleton) over an eight year period was an iterative process through which the use of film-based case study scenarios was refined as a teaching tool to integrate student learning across multiple disciplines in a business school. Each of the four films was designed to enhance first year university students understanding of theories and practices used in a range of discipline areas that underpin the operations of a commercial business undertaking. The final film mainly discussed here depicts a central case study scenario, entitled Middleton featuring a cast of teaching and academic staff from the Curtin Business School (CBS) in Perth, Western Australia and Curtin Sarawak, Malaysia(Curtin University of Technology). It was produced as a core teaching approach for exploring themes as part of the delivery of several first year units within the CBS, delivered over twelve campuses in Western Australia and South East Asia (Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka). Students in their first year of a commerce degree study compulsory business units that are disparate in their content and delivery. This diversity can cause some students to have difficulty with defining meaningful cohesiveness between units in their first year of study. Middleton sought to integrate the first year subjects into a film depicting a central case study of an international business operation.

Abstract. Hospital, is an institution that is built, staffed, and equipped for the diagnosis of diseases; for the treatment, both medical and surgical, of the sick and the injured; and for their housing during this process. Generally, hospitals in Malaysia are being categorized into two categories which are: public and private. Another type of hospital that serves as a centre for investigation and teaching is known as a teaching hospital. It provides clinical education and training for future and current doctors, nurses, and other health professionals, in addition to delivering medical care to patients. Some teaching hospitals also have a commitment to research and are centres for experimental, innovative and technically sophisticated services. Despite its important roles, there is no specific legislation to govern the teaching hospital in Malaysia. This situation leads to uncertainties in some crucial areas of the governance.
Therefore, this study aims to explore the legal issues and challenges with regard to the teaching hospitals governance in Malaysia. A thorough doctrinal analysis is being conducted to examine the loopholes of the current legal position. The findings will be used to propose some recommendations for the improvement of the governance of the teaching hospitals in Malaysia.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to create a key performance indicator (KPI) that can be used as the benchmark tool for teaching performance and practices of both excellent teachers (ETs) and non-ETs and to investigate the possible interrelationships between the five thinking domains (teachers’ teaching philosophy, teaching objective, pedagogical content knowledge, teachers’ expectations and management style). Design/methodology/approach This study uses a quantitative approach with a sample of 306 ETs from eight states including the Federal Territory. Exploratory factor analysis was used to validate the instrument and confirmatory factor analysis for model fit. Findings The findings showed that an excellent classroom management style was the most significant domain for KPI with the highest factor loading, followed by ETs’ teaching philosophy and objectives. It revealed that there was no significant relationship between ETs’ expectations and their classroom management style and that the relationships between the other domains were weak. Originality/value With this research creating a KPI model for excellent teaching practices, it is suggested that an in-depth review should be conducted concerning the standardization of the classroom management and the national teaching objectives in Malaysia. Perhaps representatives from the Ministry of Education and the school principals could go into the field to determine whether the excellent and non-ETs are fulfilling the national education objectives and meeting the expectations. This could lead to setting KPIs for achieving teaching objectives among the ETs.

Full textAbstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in emergency remote teaching in many countries. In Malaysia, not all households were prepared for remote teaching. This has caused some groups of students to be left out. Therefore, in this study we aim to investigate the experiences of parents and teachers concerning inclusiveness of the education delivered via virtual classrooms during the pandemic time in Malaysia. Questionnaires were distributed online to gather feedback from parents, teachers and anyone having both roles. 379 respondents completed the questionnaire. The findings indicate that stable Internet access, adequate information and communications technology (ICT) competencies among teachers and parents, and a more holistic role of the Ministry of Education could contribute to implementing a more inclusive remote teaching. Statistical data showing significant associations suggest that parents and teachers having master’s degree and above tended to be more concerned with providing inclusive remote teaching to the students. Readiness in making virtual classrooms more inclusive was higher among those teaching science and mathematics subjects than those teaching art and humanities subjects. An implication of this study is to guide the implementation of digital teaching and learning in the future, considering the involvement of policy makers, researchers, teachers, and parents.

Background/Aim. Epidemiology of maxillofacial fractures (MFF) varies between populations. This study investigated the epidemiology of MFF treated at the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (OMFS) Unit, Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM).Methods. A retrospective review of 473 medical records of patients with MFF treated from June 2013 to December 2015 was conducted. Information on demographic characteristics of patients, aetiology of injury, types of MFF, and treatment was obtained. Descriptive analysis, Pearson's chi-squared test, and multiple logistic regression analysis were conducted. The level of significance was set at 0.05.Results. Most patients treated for MFF were males (82.2%), aged 30 and below (63.1%), and from Malay ethnic (97.4%). Road traffic accident was the most common cause of MFF (83.1%), with motorcycle accident accounting for most injuries (73.6%). Orbital wall fracture was the most frequent MFF type (51.2%). About half of MFF patients (51.4%) were treated conservatively. Patients aged more than 20 years old were at higher odds of sustaining orbital wall fracture (AOR= 1.76; 95% CI: 1.214-2.558;P= 0.003) but were at lower odds of sustaining mandibular fracture (AOR= 0.47; 95% CI: 0.315-0.695;P= 0.001) than patients who are 20 years old and younger. Helmet use among motorcyclists was significantly associated with the nasal, orbital wall, and maxillary sinus wall fractures (P=0.006, 0.010, and 0.004, respectively).Conclusion. Motorcycle accident was the most common cause of MFF in Kelantan, Malaysia. Ages of patient and helmet use were associated with the type of MFF sustained. This study provides important information to facilitate the planning of MFF prevention strategies among motorcyclists and emphasizes the importance of using a helmet when riding a motorcycle.

Background: Providing appropriate teachings in the curriculum have a great impact on learning by the students.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the clinical undergraduate medical students’ preferred teaching methods provided by the medical educators.
Material and Methods: This study was conducted on 89 medical students in the 4th and 5th year of the Faculty of Medicine and Defense Health, National Defense University of Malaysia, from 1st November 2019 to 31st July 2020. Each of the students was approached with a structured questionnaire for their responses to determine their preferred teaching methods.
Results: Out of 89 students, 46 were male (51.7%); the mean age of the study students was 23.5 years. Among the various teaching methods, bedside teaching was the most preferred (76.4%) one followed by lectures (14.6%), tutorials (7.9%) and seminars (1.1%). 66.3% of students would use e-learnings’ uploaded teaching materials, whereas the remainder would not. Bedside demonstrations of clinical skills by the tutors were preferred by 77.5% of students. Practicing clinical skills by the students on a real patient rather than on a mannequin or a simulated patient was preferred by 94.4% of students. Regarding case discussions, problem-based learnings (PBL) were preferred by 80% of students.
Conclusions: Bedside teachings, demonstrations of clinical skill by a teacher, practicing skills by the students on a real patient rather than on a simulated patient or a mannequin, and PBLs are highly preferred by the students. Adequate teaching materials uploaded in the e-learning management system provide a good source for the teachings and learnings.

Educationists hold varying views on the standard of today 's examinations but concur on one issue: Malaysia is producing rote-memorizers which could be behind the better results. They agree that a different approach could result in more intelligent and creative students. The younger generation could be pushed and challenged further by scrapping objective and quantitative questions and replcing them with more open-ended ones. This would allow them to be more creative besides using their intelligence. This study explores teachers' perceptions and practices on the teaching of thinking skills via questioning techniques which was conducted using questionnaires, observations and interviews. Findings showed that the infusion of thinking skills in the teaching and learning is still at the introductory stage and there are still lots of room for improvement.Keywords: education, teaching and learning, thinking skills, and questioning techniques

Abstract Objectives This study examines the prevalence of wet nursing and milk siblinghood practice among Muslim women in Selangor, Malaysia. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted among 100 Muslim women in Selangor who had breastfed another child. Data were obtained using a validated self-administered questionnaire (Cronbach alpha = 0.8) and descriptive analysis was done using SPSS software. Results Results showed 43.0% of respondents had at least breastfed one someone else's child. Meanwhile, 3.0% of the respondents nursed seven to ten other children. A total of 237 children were breastfed by the respondents (n = 100). Of these, only 78.5% were breastfed five times, while 21.5% were breastfed less than five times. Most mothers recorded their milk child background data, which shows that the community is aware of the importance of data documentation. Conclusions This study showed that there is a wet nursing practice among the Muslim women in Malaysia. Documentation is essential to avoid any potential difficulties in establishing the mahram relationship through breast milk. Research and issues pertaining to wet nursing and milk siblinghood might continue to bring a great deal of good to society.
