Lack of knowledge exists about clinical teachers' understanding of nursing. A likely relationship between teachers' conceptions of nursing and what they focus on when teaching nursing students in the clinical setting means that the identification of different conceptions of nursing is important. This study investigated clinical teachers' experiences of nursing and clinical teaching of undergraduate nursing students. This article reports on clinical teachers' conceptions of nursing. Semistructured interviews of 20 nurses employed as clinical teachers in Australian universities were conducted. Data were analyzed using a phenomenographic approach. The findings suggest that nursing is conceived as performing tasks; providing appropriate care; providing individualized patient care aimed at achieving patient outcomes; or collaborating with health care team members to provide appropriate, individualized patient care aimed at achieving patient outcomes. Insights will assist with future preparation and support of clinical teachers, the education of nursing students, and improved curriculum design.
关于临床教师对护理的理解，目前还存在知识上的空白。教师对护理的概念与他们在临床环境中教授护理学生时关注的重点之间可能存在联系，这意味着确定不同的护理概念很重要。本研究调查了临床教师的护理经验和对本科护理学生的临床教学。本文报告了临床教师对护理的概念。对 20 名在澳大利亚大学担任临床教师的护士进行了半结构化访谈。使用现象学方法对数据进行了分析。研究结果表明，护理被视为执行任务；提供适当的护理；提供旨在实现患者结果的个体化患者护理；或与医疗保健团队成员合作，提供旨在实现患者结果的适当的个体化患者护理。这些见解将有助于为临床教师提供未来的准备和支持，护理学生的教育，以及改进课程设计。
