Shame in the nursing field has three antecedents: negative evaluation, the involvement of others, and social and affiliated-group norms. Consequences of shame in nursing include decreased senses of self-esteem and self-efficacy, escape through defense mechanisms, depressive states, and alleviation of distress through reaffirmation of self-promotion and reflection leading to personal growth.Conclusions: We clarified the significance of self, others, others' evaluations, and differences in socio-cultural contexts while defining shame.","PeriodicalId":51525,"journal":{"name":"NURSING FORUM","volume":"57 6","pages":"1529-1535"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/0b/ab/NUF-57-1529.PMC10092440.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9296775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective for the Sim-IPE activity was to engage AT and prelicensure nursing students in a realistic healthcare scenario to enhance knowledge about one another's profession, develop interprofessional skills, collaborate with one another, and communicate effectively as a team as they performed care.Methods: This mixed methods study employed a one-time posttest design for a convenience sample of AT and prelicensure nursing students following a simulation intervention. Students completed the Student Perceptions of Interprofessional Clinical Education-Revised (SPICE-R) survey and answered open-ended response questions.Results: Thirteen students (N = 13) from Cohort 1 and 12 students (N = 12) from Cohort 2 completed the SPICE-R survey. Most students strongly agreed/agreed for each of the SPICE-R survey questions. Qualitative findings indicated the students positively perceived the Sim-IPE activity as it helped them discover the value of interprofessional patient care.Discussion: The quantitative findings indicated that the students found the Sim-IPE an effective learning methodology to achieve the objectives while the qualitative findings gave further insight into the students' perceptions of interprofessional teamwork and the value of the prebrief session conducted before the simulation.

One major barrier often described by nurses on implementing spirituality in practice relates to perceiving the concept of spirituality as subjective and sharing confounding similarities with other concepts. In this sense, the concepts of spiritual comfort, spiritual care, and spiritual support may require more distinct theoretical definitions aimed at clear and effective nursing interventions within spiritual care.Aim: To provide a definition of spiritual comfort, spiritual support, and spiritual care.Methods: Simultaneous concept analysis (SCA) of three concepts according to Haase et al., which is grounded on Rodgers' evolutionary view. The method was based on a literature review with the search of electronic databases on May 2020. Search and analysis have been blinded conducted by two reviewers.Results: One hundred thirty-six studies were included in the SCA. Findings suggest that spiritual comfort is an immediate state and an outcome. Spiritual support is related with an intimate and positive relationship with God. Spiritual care is defined as a complex and interactive process. Both spiritual support and spiritual care are grounded in a therapeutic context.Conclusion: This SCA allowed the attributes of each concept to be identified and provides definitions that may facilitate the understanding of these concepts and promote the implementation of spirituality in nursing practice, but which has also led to future research on this topic.","PeriodicalId":51525,"journal":{"name":"NURSING FORUM","volume":"57 6","pages":"1559-1566"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10099816/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9298393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A moderated moderation model was tested through SPSS Process macro. The design is cross-sectional.Results: The results show that the perception of meaningfulness of work is positively associated with pleasure in working, especially in conditions of high deep acting. This relationship is further moderated by the COVID-19 influence so that the association between meaningful work and pleasure in working is stronger in conditions of high COVID-19 influence and at higher levels of deep acting performed.Conclusion: Perceiving one's work as meaningful can be a job resource that protects nurses from the negative effects of emotional regulation demands and even from the stress of dealing with COVID-19.Impact: The study addresses the problem of nurses' emotional regulation demands at work and evaluates the protective role of meaningful work.

Although several factors are associated with job satisfaction and retention (pay, leadership, mentorship), the association of demographic characteristics has been understudied in the literature. Purpose To explore whether professional role and demographic characteristics are associated with job satisfaction and intent to stay among nurses and physicians in a military medical center. Methods We conducted a descriptive, exploratory, cross‐sectional study, and collected data via surveys. We used multiple regression to evaluate study variables. Results Two hundred and eighty‐nine participants completed the survey. Professional role and demographic characteristics were not associated with job satisfaction. Professional role, race, and education were associated with intent to stay for military respondents. Physicians (β = 0.53, p = .0259) and Caucasians (β = −0.55, p = .0172) reported lower intent to stay; respondents with graduate degrees reported higher intent to stay (β = 2.47, p = .0045). Professional role and demographic characteristics were not associated with intent to stay for civilians. Conclusion Job satisfaction and retention of nurses and physicians are critical to the quality of care. Civilian and military healthcare leaders should focus on interventions that enhance job satisfaction and retention as a strategy to improve patient and staff outcomes alike.","PeriodicalId":51525,"journal":{"name":"NURSING FORUM","volume":"57 6","pages":"1034-1043"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10083962/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9331389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a noninvasive, rapid, safe, and low-cost procedure that is commonly used by nurses in clinical settings to diagnose a variety of cardiac arrhythmia. However, there is a limited number of studies that have assessed nursing students' competencies in electrocardiogram interpretation in Saudi Arabia. This study aimed to assess the electrocardiogram interpretation competency among undergraduate nursing students and to evaluate the effectiveness of the electrocardiogram interpretation educational program.Methods: A quasi-experimental pre-post-test design was conducted. A pre-post-test self-administered standardized questionnaire was completed by a convenient sample of 79 nursing students who enrolled in an educational program. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics with p < .05 was assumed. The study hypothesized that ECG competency scores of nursing students who are enrolled in an educational program will be higher in post-test than their pre-test scores.Results: The vast majority of students (96.2%) expressed their interest to enroll in more ECG training sessions. The study results showed that students' mean ECG interpretation competency was 4.16 (1.88) and 7.43 (2.38) in pre- and post-tests, respectively, with a statistical significance of p < .001.Conclusion: Overall performance of nursing students was limited. Study results confirm the primary hypothesis that the educational program was effective in improving students' ECG interpretation competencies. More ECG contents and programs should be integrated into nursing curricula and more follow-up studies are recommended. This study highlighted the significance of equipping nursing students with ECG interpretation competencies through education and training to ensure safe practice.","PeriodicalId":51525,"journal":{"name":"NURSING FORUM","volume":"57 6","pages":"1273-1280"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10384415","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}
