UNLABELLED
This article reports on a small mixed-methods research project undertaken with trainee nursing associates (TNAs) in the south of England.
AIM
The aim was to gain insight into the motivation behind undertaking the nursing associate (NA) programme, how the NA role is perceived by service users and the wider healthcare team, and the future career pathways of NAs.
METHODS
Online questionnaires (=14) and online focus groups (n=6).
FINDINGS
The results suggested undertaking the NA programme increased the TNAs' confidence and ability to use evidence to support their practice; that the role of the NA is not well understood. Some TNAs perceived the NA role as a distinct professional role, whereas others saw it as a way into registered nurse training.
CONCLUSION
Role confusion still exists. Research is needed to capture how professional identities in new health and social care professional groups become established.
未加标签
本文报告了在英格兰南部进行的一项小型混合方法研究项目，该项目针对的是实习护理助理（TNA）。
目的
旨在深入了解从事护理助理（NA）项目的动机、服务使用者和更广泛的医疗保健团队对 NA 角色的看法，以及 NAs 的未来职业道路。
方法
在线问卷调查（=14）和在线焦点小组（n=6）。
结果
结果表明，参加 NA 项目提高了 TNA 们的信心和运用证据支持实践的能力；NA 的角色还没有得到很好的理解。一些 TNA 认为 NA 角色是一种独特的专业角色，而另一些人则认为这是进入注册护士培训的一种方式。
结论
角色混淆仍然存在。需要研究如何在新的卫生和社会保健专业群体中确立专业身份。
