Students acquire nursing knowledge and values through occupational socialisation during varied work-based placements. Such experiences not only influence their career paths but, crucially, their orientation towards older people in practice. This paper draws on research exploring nursing students' experiences of working with older people during a pre-registration course. It aims to show how understanding their perceptions might assist in meeting the future challenges of elder care. The author reveals that reformed nurse education, service modernisation and changing roles have modified traditional views of nursing older people but not overturned them. Nurses in age-specific and non-acute areas were more likely to practise and encourage a person-centred approach, this being consistent with students' ideals.
学生们在不同的实习岗位上通过职业社会化获取护理知识和价值观。这些经历不仅影响他们的职业道路,而且至关重要的是,影响他们在实际工作中对老年人的态度。本文借鉴了一项研究,该研究探讨了护理专业学生在注册前课程中与老年人共事的经历。其目的是展示了解他们的观念如何有助于应对未来老年护理的挑战。作者揭示,改革后的护士教育、服务现代化和角色转变改变了护理老年人的传统观念,但并未将其推翻。在特定年龄段和非急症领域工作的护士更有可能践行并鼓励以患者为中心的方法,这与学生们的理想相符。
