Abstract

Background: COVID-19 has caused significant disruption. This has been particularly evident within the university student population where their traditional ways of learning were abruptly reorganised and support structures removed.Objective: This paper aims to explore undergraduate student nurses' perceptions of the support required from the university during COVID-19 using the Achievement Goal Theory framework.Design: Data were collected via an online survey of undergraduate student nurses from an Australian university. This paper is reporting the data from a single open-ended item asking participants about their support needs from the University. Data were analysed using thematic analysis.Results: Of the 178 students who responded 206 individual statements were provided about the support they would like from the university. Four primary themes emerged, Support beyond academia, Academic support, Online learning readiness and Clinical practice units and clinical placement. The students identified that their needs during this pandemic include financial needs, social isolation, needs for more communication and unpreparedness for online teaching.Conclusion: Several factors were identified by participants about the additional support required from the university during COVID-19. Understanding and addressing these factors have the potential to improve student support during COVID-19 and support students in future crises.Impact statement: Understanding what support students perceive they require from the university during significant disruption will assist in future crisis management planning.

了解澳大利亚护理专业学生在COVID-19期间的支持需求:一项横断面研究。
背景:COVID-19造成了重大破坏。这在大学生群体中尤其明显,他们传统的学习方式突然被重组,支持结构被移除。目的:运用成就目标理论框架,探讨本科护生在新冠肺炎疫情期间对学校支持需求的认知。设计:数据通过对澳大利亚一所大学本科护士的在线调查收集。本文报告的数据来自一个单一的开放式项目,询问参与者他们对大学的支持需求。采用专题分析对数据进行分析。结果:在178名回应的学生中,有206名学生被提供了关于他们希望从大学获得支持的个人陈述。出现了四个主要主题:学术支持、学术支持、在线学习准备以及临床实践单元和临床实习。学生们确定,他们在这次大流行期间的需求包括经济需求、社会隔离、需要更多的沟通以及对在线教学的准备不足。结论:参与者确定了在COVID-19期间需要大学提供额外支持的几个因素。了解并解决这些因素有可能改善学生在2019冠状病毒病期间的支持,并在未来的危机中支持学生。影响陈述:了解学生认为他们在重大中断期间需要从学校获得哪些支持,将有助于未来的危机管理计划。
