However, questions persist about the best approach to effectively educate future health professionals for this. A workshop at the 15th Nursing Informatics International Congress explored this issue.\u0000\u0000\u0000OBJECTIVE\u0000To report findings from an international participatory workshop exploring pre-registration informatics implementation experiences.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHODS\u0000A virtual workshop was held using whole and small group interactive methods aiming to 1) showcase international examples of incorporating health informatics into pre-registration education; 2) highlight essential elements and considerations for integrating health informatics into curricula; 3) identify integration models of health informatics; 4) identify core learning objectives, resources, and faculty capabilities for teaching informatics; and 5) propose curriculum evaluation strategies. The facilitators' recorded data and written notes were content analysed.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000Fourteen participants represented seven countries and a range of educational experiences. Four themes emerged: 1) Design: scaffolding digital health and technology capabilities; 2) Development: interprofessional experience of and engagement with digital health technology capabilities; 3) implementation strategies; and 4) Evaluation: multifaceted, multi-stakeholder evaluation of curricula. These themes were used to propose an implementation framework.\u0000\u0000\u0000DISCUSSION\u0000Workshop findings emphasise global challenges in integrating health informatics into curricula. While course development approaches may appear linear, the learner-centred implementation framework based on workshop findings, advocates for a more cyclical approach. Iterative evaluation involving stakeholders, such as health services, will ensure that health professional education is progressive and innovative.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSIONS\u0000The proposed implementation framework serves as a roadmap for successful health informatics implementation into health professional curricula. Prioritising engagement with health services and digital health industry is essential to ensure the relevance of implemented informatics curricula for the future workforce, acknowledging the variability in placement experiences and their influence on informatics exposure, experience, and learning.","PeriodicalId":55633,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Nurse","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140656068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The voice of the second-level regulated nursing role: a qualitative approach.","authors":"Rebecca J Leon, Tracey Moroney, Samuel Lapkin, Lorraine Fields","doi":"10.1080/10376178.2024.2343002","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/10376178.2024.2343002","url":null,"abstract":"BACKGROUND\u0000With an international nursing shortage, there is a need to navigate towards an improved nursing workforce structure where each nursing role is valued and recognised for the work they contribute. The second-level regulated nursing role is seen as integral; however, there is role confusion, especially with the registered nurse, and high attrition. To implement strategies to retain an integral nursing workforce, there is a need to better understand the role from the experiences and expectations of the second-level regulated nursing role.\u0000\u0000\u0000AIM\u0000To gain a better understanding of the second-level regulated nursing role in the Australian nursing workforce.\u0000\u0000\u0000DESIGN\u0000Qualitative descriptive study from a larger mixed methods study.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHOD\u0000Five focus groups in 2018. The findings were analysed through the lens of organisational behaviour.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000The findings identified that enrolled nurses' intrinsic and extrinsic motivators influenced levels of job satisfaction and sense of feeling valued. The findings also identified key determinants that influence job satisfaction and occupational stress: enrolled nurses' understanding of their role and scope of practice; the registered nurses' understanding of the enrolled nurses' role and their role when working with the enrolled nurse; and the organisation's understanding and recognition of their role. When these determinants align, there is job satisfaction, less occupational stress and enrolled nurses feel valued. At a professional level, the title does not reflect the role, and there are no career pathways.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSION\u0000This study explained why recurrent challenges impact the role and what contributes to those in the role feeling valued. Challenges that affect job satisfaction and occupational stress for the second-level (enrolled) nurse are related to the working environment and with whom the nurse works. From a professional level, there are limited career opportunities that recognise and retain the enrolled nurse in their role.","PeriodicalId":55633,"journal":{"name":"Contemporary Nurse","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140656055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
