This scoping review aimed to identify and describe evidence regarding the experiences of nurses when they become patients or when nurses care for other health professional-patients in a hospital setting.
A scoping review of internationally published peer-reviewed literature.
A systematic search of peer-reviewed evidence was conducted in electronic databases: CINAHL, Medline, Scopus, ProQuest and PsycINFO.
Critical appraisal, data extraction and summary were performed independently by two reviewers according to the scoping review framework developed by Arksey and O'Malley. Twenty-three publications from 1999 to 2021 were included in this scoping review.
This scoping review highlighted seven key themes as follows: (1) the challenges for nurse-patients and caregivers; (2) role ambiguity when a nurse becomes a patient; (3) the need for personalized care to consider the nurse's professional experience; (4) the requirement to not make assumptions about the registered nurse's knowledge; (5) loss of control and vulnerabilities of being a patient; (6) the impact of the valuable small things that carers did and (7) the impact of being a nurse-patient on their future practice.
While some aspects of nurse-patients' experiences are common to non-healthcare professional-patients, this review highlights there are unique challenges when nurses become patients themselves. Future research should focus on exploring nurses' experience of caring for other healthcare professional-patients and strive to better understand how to meet nurses' unique needs when they become patients themselves.
This review advances knowledge on an under-explored topic, highlighting the unique and challenging experience when nurses become patients in a hospital setting. Nurses should be aware of the unique needs of nurse-patients to provide person-centred quality care.
There was no direct patient or public contribution to this scoping review, although one of the authors did have experience as a nurse-patient in the last 3 years.
本范围综述旨在识别和描述有关护士成为患者时或在医院环境中护理其他医护人员患者时的经历的证据。
对国际上发表的同行评审文献进行范围综述。
在电子数据库CINAHL、Medline、Scopus、ProQuest和PsycINFO中对同行评审证据进行系统检索。
两名评审员根据Arksey和O'Malley开发的范围综述框架独立进行批判性评价、数据提取和总结。本范围综述纳入了1999年至2021年的23篇出版物。
本范围综述突出了以下七个关键主题：（1）护士患者和护理人员面临的挑战；（2）护士成为患者时角色的模糊性；（3）考虑护士专业经验提供个性化护理的必要性；（4）不应对注册护士的知识进行假设的要求；（5）失去控制权和作为患者的脆弱性；（6）护理人员所做的有价值的小事的影响；（7）成为护士患者对其未来实践的影响。
虽然护士患者经历的某些方面与非医护专业患者相同，但本综述强调护士自身成为患者时存在独特的挑战。未来的研究应侧重于探索护士护理其他医护专业患者的经历，并努力更好地理解如何在护士自身成为患者时满足他们的独特需求。
本综述推进了对一个研究不足的主题的认识，突出了护士在医院环境中成为患者时独特且具有挑战性的经历。护士应意识到护士患者的独特需求，以提供以患者为中心的优质护理。
本范围综述没有直接的患者或公众贡献，尽管其中一位作者在过去3年中有作为护士患者的经历。
