Abstract

Background

Medication-related nursing constitutes a significant part of nurses' responsibilities, involving tasks before, during, and after medication administration. This includes ensuring accurate dosage, proper timing, and patient monitoring throughout the process. Nurses are directly responsible for administering most medications to patients.

Aim

This study aims to implement blended learning to enhance medication safety competence in nursing students and investigate its effects.

Method

A single-group pre- and post-test assessed the knowledge, confidence, and competence in medication safety of 98 third-year nursing students in South Korea (January 22–31, 2024). Data were collected via a questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, and Pearson correlation.

Results

The program significantly improved knowledge (t = 4.93, p < .001), confidence (t = 13.70, p < .001), and competence (t = 9.23, p < .001), indicating a medium to large effect size (r = 0.45-0.81) within medication safety.

Conclusion

Specialized medication safety education should be systematically and repeatedly provided to nursing students, incorporating various teaching methods to enhance its effectiveness.

以混合式学习为基础的护生用药安全教育的效果

与药物相关的护理是护士职责的重要组成部分，包括给药前、给药期间和给药后的工作。这包括在整个过程中确保准确的剂量、适当的时间和患者监测。护士直接负责给病人服用大多数药物。目的实施混合式学习，提高护生用药安全能力，并探讨其效果。方法采用单组前、后测试方法对韩国98名护大三学生用药安全知识、信心和能力进行评估（2024年1月22-31日）。通过问卷收集数据，并使用描述性统计、独立t检验和Pearson相关性进行分析。结果该方案显著提高了知识水平(t = 4.93,p <；.001)，置信度(t = 13.70,p <；.001)，能力(t = 9.23,p <；.001)，表明在药物安全性方面存在中大型效应量（r = 0.45-0.81）。结论应系统、反复地对护生进行专业用药安全教育，结合多种教学方法，提高教学效果。
