Abstract

Hiring part-time nursing faculty may impact students, faculty careers, and the institution. Yet, little has been studied, particularly in nursing, regarding the experiences of these faculty. This hermeneutic phenomenological study seeks to understand the lived experience of being a part-time faculty member in a baccalaureate nursing program. Through purposive and snowball sampling, nine nursing faculty in part-time positions in northeastern baccalaureate nursing programs participated in in-depth personal interviews. Four themes were uncovered during data analysis, including achieving the dream, a group divided, for the love of the students, and jump in and figure it out. Results of the study seem to indicate that the experience of being a part-time faculty differs in several ways from being a full-time faculty. Understanding part-time faculty experiences provides insight into faculty needs, issues, and concerns while facilitating the development of research-based recruitment and retention strategies. Recommendations for those involved in nursing education, including nursing faculty and administrators, are provided.

摘要

聘请兼职护理教师可能会影响学生、教师的职业发展和机构。然而，针对这些教师的经验，人们几乎没有进行过研究，特别是在护理领域。本解释性现象学研究旨在了解兼职护理教师在学士学位护理项目中的生活体验。通过有目的和滚雪球抽样，参与东北学士学位护理项目兼职职位的 9 名护理教师参加了深入的个人访谈。在数据分析过程中发现了四个主题，包括实现梦想、分裂的群体、出于对学生的热爱以及跳入并解决问题。研究结果似乎表明，兼职教师的经历在几个方面与全职教师不同。了解兼职教师的经历可以深入了解教师的需求、问题和关注点，同时促进基于研究的招聘和留任策略的制定。为参与护理教育的人员，包括护理教师和管理人员，提供了建议。
