A previous paper in Nurse Education Today [Marsland, L. (1996) Career guidance for student nurses: an unmet need, Vol. 16, No. 1, p. 10] presented research about career guidance received during nurse education by 1015 Registered General Nurses (RGNs) who qualified in 1990/1991. The findings revealed a substantial unmet need for guidance amongst this group, especially in relation to discussions about individual career planning. The paper argued that the greater variety of training experiences incorporated into the Project 2000 diploma course curriculum, plus the opportunity in some colleges to defer branch selection until after the common foundation programme, would increase rather than decrease the need for pre-registration guidance. The research presented in this subsequent paper investigates career guidance received by a cohort of adult branch nurses who qualified from the nurse diploma course in 1997/1998. Similarities and differences between the guidance experiences of the two cohorts are discussed, and deficits experienced by the diploma course nurses identified.
《今日护理教育》之前发表的一篇论文[马斯兰,L.(1996年)《护生的职业指导:一项未得到满足的需求》,第16卷,第1期,第10页]介绍了一项针对1990/1991年取得资格的1015名注册全科护士(RGN)在护理教育期间接受职业指导情况的研究。研究结果显示,这一群体对职业指导有着大量未得到满足的需求,尤其是在个人职业规划讨论方面。该论文指出,2000年项目文凭课程的课程设置纳入了更多样化的培训经历,再加上一些院校允许学生在通用基础课程结束后再选择专业方向,这会增加而非减少注册前职业指导的需求。本文后续介绍的研究调查了1997/1998年从护士文凭课程毕业的一批成人专业护士接受职业指导的情况。文中讨论了这两组人员职业指导经历中的异同,并指出了文凭课程护士所面临的不足。
