Despite national initiatives and ongoing efforts, keeping patients safe remains a challenge. Education is the key to preparing health care professionals to be able to prevent errors and provide safe patient care. In the past three decades, perioperative courses have been removed from nearly every nursing program in the United States, thereby eliminating the chance for students to learn nursing skills and concepts related to safety in the perioperative environment. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a perioperative nursing course on junior baccalaureate nursing students' safety knowledge by testing students before and after they completed the course. Safety knowledge increased among the 44 student participants. Nursing program faculty members are encouraged to explore teaching opportunities beyond the traditional nursing educational model and include perioperative courses as part of the baccalaureate nursing curriculum to enhance patient safety.
尽管有国家层面的倡议和持续的努力,但保障患者安全仍是一项挑战。教育是使医疗保健专业人员有能力预防差错并提供安全患者护理的关键。在过去三十年里,围手术期课程已从美国几乎所有护理专业中被移除,从而使学生失去了学习与围手术期环境安全相关的护理技能和概念的机会。本研究的目的是通过在本科护理低年级学生完成围手术期护理课程前后对其进行测试,来确定该课程对他们安全知识的影响。44名参与研究的学生的安全知识有所增加。鼓励护理专业教员探索超越传统护理教育模式的教学机会,并将围手术期课程纳入本科护理课程,以提高患者安全。
