Abstract

Background: Nursing education covers pathophysiology, nursing procedures, and compassionate care. Nursing students can apply theory and develop skills in the real world by participating in a supportive learning environment. For nursing students to effectively apply what they have learned in the classroom, they need a supportive clinical learning environment. However, some difficulties and impediments may prevent them from learning and having excellent clinical placement experiences. This study aims to identify factors affecting nursing students' clinical experience during clinical placement.

Materials and methods: The respondents in this descriptive cross-sectional study were at Universiti Kuala Lumpur (RCMP) Diploma in Nursing students in Ipoh, Perak, who had more than two clinical placements at a public hospital. The time frame of the study was 6 months. Sociodemographic information and elements affecting clinical practice, such as perceptions of clinical experience, hospital settings, and clinical instructor aspects, were obtained by a self-administered questionnaire. A descriptive analysis and the Kruskal-Wallis test were used to obtain the study's outcome.

Results: Although the clinical placement demonstrated possibilities for learning, research has shown that the absence of instructors, equipment, and nursing staff has a negative impact on students' experiences. The study also discovered a substantial correlation between a student's semester and their clinical experience and between the clinical environment and the contributions of clinical instructors with P < 0.05.

Conclusion: In conclusion, the study semester, clinical experience, clinical ambient characteristics, and instructors' contributions are strongly correlated. It suggests boosting academic-clinical collaboration, interprofessional collaboration, and student clinical experiences.

影响马来西亚护生临床经验的因素:一项横断面研究。
背景:护理教育包括病理生理学、护理程序和同情护理。护理专业的学生可以通过参与一个支持性的学习环境,在现实世界中应用理论和发展技能。护理专业的学生要想有效地运用课堂所学,他们需要一个支持性的临床学习环境。然而,一些困难和障碍可能会阻碍他们学习和拥有优秀的临床实习经验。本研究旨在探讨护生临床实习过程中影响其临床体验的因素。材料和方法:这项描述性横断面研究的受访者是霹雳州怡保的吉隆坡大学(RCMP)护理文凭学生,他们在公立医院有两个以上的临床实习。研究时间为6个月。社会人口学信息和影响临床实践的因素,如对临床经验、医院环境和临床教师方面的看法,是通过自我管理的问卷获得的。使用描述性分析和Kruskal-Wallis检验来获得研究结果。结果:尽管临床实习展示了学习的可能性,但研究表明,缺乏教师、设备和护理人员对学生的经历产生了负面影响。研究还发现,学生的学期与临床经验、临床环境与临床教师的贡献之间存在显著的相关性(P < 0.05)。结论:总之,学习学期、临床经验、临床环境特征和教师的贡献有很强的相关性。它建议加强学术临床合作、跨专业合作和学生临床经验。
