Disasters can overwhelm healthcare systems, making effective triage a crucial skill for nurses. Role-Play Scenario-Based Disaster Triage Training offers a promising approach to prepare nursing students for these situations. Understanding students' experiences with this training method can inform its development and effectiveness in fostering disaster preparedness. However, little is known about this training experience of nursing students. In particular, by examining the challenges faced by students, the emotional distress they experience and their achievements, it will provide guidance for the development of education programs in a more comprehensive and student-oriented manner.
The aim of this study is to elucidate the experiences of nursing students regarding Role-Play Scenario-Based Disaster Triage Training.
A qualitative approach was employed to comprehend participating students' experiences. Face-to-face and online semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 students using an interview guide, and the interactions were recorded for subsequent analysis. Thematic analysis was employed to develop themes.
The study results emphasize the challenges experienced by students during triage training, their gains and the support they need to cope with the challenges they experience. Data were organized around four main themes: "Challenges of the triage process" with subthemes such as "Thinking of the actual earthquake moment" and "Ethical dilemmas"; "Emotional turmoil" with subthemes including "Anxiety" and "Fear and Helplessness"; "Achievements" with subthemes such as "Increase in knowledge and skills" and "The importance of the nurse"; and "Suggestions" with subthemes including "Continuous education" and "Mandatory course".
The findings of the study provide new insights into the experiences of nursing students during the disaster triage process. The results may contribute to the improvement of future training programs by identifying the challenges and needs faced by nursing students after disaster triage education.
灾害可能使医疗系统不堪重负，因此对于护士来说，有效的分诊是一项至关重要的技能。基于角色扮演的灾害分诊培训为护理学生应对这些情况提供了一种有前途的方法。了解学生对这种培训方法的体验可以为其发展和在培养灾害准备方面的有效性提供信息。然而，对于护理学生的这种培训体验知之甚少。特别是，通过检查学生面临的挑战、他们经历的情绪困扰以及他们的成就，可以为更全面、以学生为导向的教育项目的发展提供指导。
本研究旨在阐明护理学生对基于角色扮演的灾害分诊培训的体验。
采用定性方法来理解参与学生的体验。使用访谈指南对 17 名学生进行了面对面和在线半结构化访谈，并记录了互动情况，以便随后进行分析。采用主题分析来开发主题。
研究结果强调了学生在分诊培训中所面临的挑战、他们的收获以及他们应对所经历挑战所需的支持。数据围绕四个主要主题进行组织：“分诊过程中的挑战”，包括“想到实际地震时刻”和“伦理困境”等子主题；“情绪波动”，包括“焦虑”和“恐惧和无助”等子主题；“成就”，包括“知识和技能的提高”和“护士的重要性”等子主题；以及“建议”，包括“持续教育”和“必修课程”等子主题。
该研究的结果提供了护理学生在灾害分诊过程中的体验的新见解。这些结果可能通过确定灾害分诊教育后护理学生面临的挑战和需求，有助于改进未来的培训计划。
