To assess the impact of a partnership between a nursing school and a large-scale urban hospital on healthcare education, practice and research.
The qualitative study was conducted from April 2013 to January 2014 at a nursing school and an urban hospital at University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia in the United States, and comprised health professionals including nursing faculty members, nurse clinicians and nurse managers from the two institutions. Data was collected through in-depth interviews using an open-ended questionnaire. Data was subjected to qualitative content analysis.
Of the 16 health professionals, 8(50%) were faculty members at the school of nursing, and 8(50%) were nurse clinicians/manager at the hospital. Major themes that emerged were mutual gains and benefits; clinical educators as the cornerstones of the partnership; leaders as key actors; and roadblocks to sustaining collaboration. The partnership benefitted both parties, particularly those in clinical practice, despite some challenges to long-term sustainability. The roles of clinical educator and team leader were critical in both settings.
The partnership between academics and practice carried critical importance in terms of enhancing quality patient care, student training, professional development and increasing research capacity.
评估护理学校与大型城市医院之间的伙伴关系对医疗保健教育、实践和研究的影响。
这项定性研究于 2013 年 4 月至 2014 年 1 月在美国费城宾夕法尼亚大学的一所护理学校和一家城市医院进行，参与者包括来自这两个机构的护理教师、临床护士和护士长等卫生专业人员。通过使用开放式问卷进行深入访谈收集数据。对数据进行了定性内容分析。
在 16 名卫生专业人员中，有 8 名（50%）是护理学校的教师，8 名（50%）是医院的临床护士/护士长。主要出现的主题有互惠互利；临床教育者是伙伴关系的基石；领导者是关键角色；以及维持合作的障碍。尽管长期可持续性存在一些挑战，但该伙伴关系对双方都有利，特别是对那些处于临床实践中的人。临床教育者和团队领导者的角色在这两种环境中都至关重要。
学术界与实践之间的伙伴关系对于提高患者护理质量、学生培训、专业发展和提高研究能力具有重要意义。
