Clinical nurses are increasingly responsible for facilitating and providing diabetes education in the acute care setting. However, research suggests that the lack of awareness about the psychosocial factors that influence diabetes self-management impairs the nurse's ability to effectively and comprehensively support the patient's self-management efforts. This mixed-methods design of the research study describes how transformative learning, in conjunction with critical reflection, enhanced graduate nurses' understanding of the psychosocial aspects of diabetes self-management and improved their ability to provide patient-centered care.
临床护士在急症护理环境中促进和提供糖尿病教育方面的责任日益加重。然而，研究表明，对影响糖尿病自我管理的社会心理因素缺乏认识，会削弱护士有效且全面支持患者自我管理努力的能力。这项研究采用混合方法设计，描述了变革性学习与批判性反思如何增强了研究生护士对糖尿病自我管理社会心理方面的理解，并提高了他们提供以患者为中心护理的能力。
