The aim of this study was to clarify and develop a conceptual framework for nursing professionalism.
Nursing professionalism serves as a guide for nurses in all aspects of their work. Nurses with strong professionalism are key to safeguarding the health of all people. However, the concept of nursing professionalism remains ambiguous.
This study used Charmaz's Constructing Grounded Theory. Thirty-eight participants, including nursing students, clinical nurses, nursing managers, doctors and patients in China, were interviewed from May 2021 to August 2022. We used purposeful sampling and theoretical sampling. By exploring stakeholders' understanding of the concept of nursing professionalism, the researchers clarified its conceptual components.
The conceptual framework of nursing professionalism encompasses four components: altruism, dedication, caring, and professional competence. Altruism includes putting patients-first and benefiting others. Dedication includes sacrifice, patience, tolerance, and expecting nothing in return. Caring reflects reverence for life, empathy, compassion, and concern. Professional competence includes sensitivity, responsibility, excellence, self-discipline, and collaboration.
This study clarifies the conceptual framework of nursing professionalism, providing guidance for cultivating professional values in nursing education and clinical practice. The framework also enables the development of precise assessment tools to systematically evaluate nursing professionalism.
本研究旨在阐明并构建一个护理专业精神的概念框架。
护理专业精神在护士工作的各个方面都起着指导作用。具备强大专业精神的护士是保障全民健康的关键。然而,护理专业精神的概念仍不明确。
本研究采用了 Charmaz 的扎根理论构建法。2021 年 5 月至 2022 年 8 月期间,对包括中国的护理专业学生、临床护士、护理管理者、医生和患者在内的 38 名参与者进行了访谈。我们采用了目的抽样和理论抽样。通过探究利益相关者对护理专业精神概念的理解,研究人员阐明了其概念组成部分。
护理专业精神的概念框架包含四个组成部分:利他主义、奉献精神、关怀和专业能力。利他主义包括将患者放在首位并使他人受益。奉献精神包括牺牲、耐心、宽容和不求回报。关怀体现了对生命的敬畏、同理心、同情心和关心。专业能力包括敏感度、责任感、卓越性、自律和协作能力。
本研究阐明了护理专业精神的概念框架,为护理教育和临床实践中培养专业价值观提供了指导。该框架还有助于开发精确的评估工具,以系统地评估护理专业精神。
