The administration of medication is an important skill nursing students need to learn in the clinical setting to develop safe practices. Legally within Queensland, registered nurses are required to provide personal supervision for this process. Research undertaken by the authors suggests the supervision students receive frequently falls short of what is legally required.
The aim of the study was to examine the factors that influence the experiences of final-year undergraduate nursing students when administering medications in the clinical setting.
A grounded theory approach was used with constant comparative analysis to identify categories from the data.
The experiences of final-year nursing students were explored using a grounded theory approach. In-depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 28 final-year undergraduate nursing students in Queensland, Australia.
Supervision was found to be the central issue influencing medication administration for students. Three main factors were identified as influencing the supervision provided by registered nurses: attitudes of the registered nurse, communication from the university, and busyness and having time.
The extent to which registered nurses provide direct supervision to nursing students when administering medication is influenced by factors inherent within the clinical environment.
The factors influencing the supervision provided by registered nurses needs further exploration that effective strategies can be implemented to ensure safe practices in relation to medication administration can be implemented.
给药是护理学生在临床环境中需要学习的一项重要技能，以培养安全实践。在昆士兰州，法律规定注册护士必须为该过程提供个人监督。作者进行的研究表明，学生接受的监督经常不符合法律要求。
本研究旨在探讨影响最后一年本科护理学生在临床环境中给药时的经验的因素。
采用扎根理论方法和恒定性比较分析，从数据中确定类别。
使用扎根理论方法探讨了最后一年护理学生的经验。在澳大利亚昆士兰州对 28 名最后一年的本科护理学生进行了深入的半结构化访谈。
监督被发现是影响学生给药的核心问题。确定了三个主要因素影响注册护士提供的监督：注册护士的态度、来自大学的沟通以及忙碌和有时间。
注册护士在给学生给药时提供直接监督的程度受到临床环境中固有因素的影响。
需要进一步探讨影响注册护士提供监督的因素，以便可以实施有效的策略，确保与给药相关的安全实践得以实施。
