Methods Using a qualitative focused ethnography design grounded in critical race theory and intersectionality, participants were recruited using purposive and snowball sampling. Data were collected through individual interviews, and a follow-up focus group. Data were analyzed using collaborative-thematic analysis team approaches. Results n=18 current and former students participated. Five themes emerged: systemic racism in nursing, precarious immigrant context, mental health/well-being concerns, coping mechanisms, and suggestions for improvement. Conclusions An improved understanding of Black student experiences can inform their recruitment and retention. Supporting Black students’ success can potentially improve equity, diversity, and inclusivity in nursing education programs and/or their representation in the Canadian nursing workforce. Implications for an international audience The presence of a diverse nursing profession is imperative to meet the needs to provide more quality and culturally competent services to diverse population.","PeriodicalId":35294,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Nursing Education Scholarship","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9965560","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nursing care needs a lot of seeing, from charts and digital data to patients& faces. Nurses need good vision to provide quality treatment. The nurses’ job should be reviewed and documented appropriately, so eye health is vital. Nurses exposed to more online education during student time risk eye health and work errors.Materials and Methods: This study was conducted with a detailed descriptive cross-sectional research design. A pre-validated self-structured questionnaire was used to collect data. Using descriptive statistics, student nurses’ demographics, knowledge, and practice scores were described for care of eyes while attending Online classes. The association between demographic variables and student nurse knowledge and practice was studied using a chi-square test and correlation coefficient.Results: The Mean knowledge score of student nurses regarding the prevention of eye problems during online learning was found to be 11.43, SD2.36 and the Mean practice score was 4.42and SD 1.53 a significant positive linear relationship between knowledge and practice relationship was found (r=0.47,p=0.004).Conclusion: There is a gap between the knowledge and practice scores of student nurses for eye health while learning online. Eye health literacy as well as good eye health practices are highly needed among student nurses.","PeriodicalId":35294,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Nursing Education Scholarship","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135318230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study sought to examine the effects of peer mentorship on nursing students’ academic performance in Kenya.Methods: The study was a pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design using quantitative means of data collection. It was conducted in 4 sampled Kenyan universities offering Bachelor of Science in Nursing that included University of East Africa Baraton, Uzima, Great Lakes University of Kisumu and Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology. 50 third year students were trained and mentored 301 second years in 3 universities .1 university having 85 second year students served as a control group. Data was analysed using Statistical Package for the Social sciences version 28. Descriptive statistics were used to understand student distribution in universities. Paired-samples t-test and independent t test were used to establish relationship within and between groups.Results: Clinical scores of experimental group compared control group indicated t=-7.5041, P≤ .05 thus implying that the means of the two groups were significantly different. Results of classroom scores between the experimental and control groups were t=14.8713, P≤.05, indicating statistical difference in the means. The pre and post results in clinical and class scores of experimental group indicated significant results with t=27.72, P=≤ .05 and with t=18.01, P=≤ .05 respectively. On the other hand, Pre and post results of clinical control and clinical experimental results indicated insignificant results of t=-0.60, P≥ .05 and t=0.96, P≥ .05 respectively.Conclusion: The study concluded that peer mentorship affects positively student academic performance and recommends use of peer mentorship to support students and inform policy.","PeriodicalId":35294,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Nursing Education Scholarship","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135318238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
