The purpose of the study was to determine the continuing education needs for nursing home nurses in rural central Illinois and to determine any potential facilitators or barriers to obtaining continuing education.
Data were collected using the Educational Needs Assessment questionnaire. Descriptive statistics were computed to examine continuing education preferences, facilitators, and barriers among nursing home nurses. Independent samples t tests were used to compare preferences between administrative and staff nurses.
The sample included 317 nurses from 34 facilities. The five top needs were related to clinical problems. Administrative nurses had greater needs for professional issues, managerial skills, and quality improvement than staff nurses. Barriers included rural settings, need for vacation time for programs, and inadequate staffing.
Continuing education needs of nursing home nurses in Illinois are similar to previous studies conducted in Arizona and North Carolina. Continuing education barriers were mostly organizational, rather than personal. J Contin Nurs Educ. 2018;49(1):26-33.
本研究的目的是确定伊利诺伊州中部农村地区养老院护士的继续教育需求，并确定获得继续教育的任何潜在促进因素或障碍。
使用教育需求评估问卷收集数据。计算描述性统计数据以检查养老院护士的继续教育偏好、促进因素和障碍。采用独立样本t检验比较行政护士和普通护士之间的偏好。
样本包括来自34个机构的317名护士。五大需求与临床问题相关。行政护士在专业问题、管理技能和质量改进方面的需求比普通护士更大。障碍包括农村环境、参加培训所需的休假时间以及人员配备不足。
伊利诺伊州养老院护士的继续教育需求与之前在亚利桑那州和北卡罗来纳州进行的研究相似。继续教育障碍大多是组织性的，而非个人性的。《护理学继续教育杂志》。2018年；49(1)：26 - 33。
