摘要

背景在全球范围内，向高等教育过渡是护理教育的一项重大且持续的变革。目标确定护理教育领导者对高等教育变革的组织准备情况的看法。方法使用变革组织准备情况量表调查护理教育领导者对变革效力和变革承诺的集体承诺。来自 88 名护理学院管理人员和护理教育主任的 75 名参与者（n = 75）完成了调查。调查在南非三个省的公立护理学院进行：农村省、城市省和城乡混合省。数据分析采用了描述性统计方法。结果发现，各护理学院的准备程度在统计学上存在显著差异（p = 0.04）。农村省份护理学院的准备程度最高（中位数：48，IQR：44-52）。拥有 20 年以上教育经验的参与者对变革的准备程度较高（中位数：48，IQR：42-49）。在性别（p = 0.13）、资格水平（p = 0.88）和员工职称（p = 0.32）方面，准备程度没有发现明显差异。略高的变革实施准备度需要战略支持，而战略支持不仅仅是资源、员工资质和职位。成员的集体承诺和信心是变革准备度的重要决定因素。

Nursing colleges in higher education: Determinants of organisational readiness for implementing change

Background

Transitioning to higher education is a significant and ongoing change for nursing education, globally. Understanding organisational readiness for implementing change is crucial for the successful transitioning of nursing colleges to higher education.

Objective

To determine the perspectives of nursing education leaders on organisational readiness for change to higher education.

Methods

The Organisational Readiness for Implementing Change scale was used to survey the collective commitment of nursing education leaders to change efficacy and change commitment. Seventy-five participants (n = 75) from a target population of 88 nursing college managers and nursing education directors, completed the survey. The survey was conducted in public nursing colleges across three provinces in South Africa: rural, urban, and mixed urban and rural. Descriptive statistics were used to analyse data. Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests were used to compare differences between variables.

Results

Statistically significant differences in readiness levels were found among nursing colleges (p = 0.04). The nursing college in the rural province had the highest readiness (median: 48, IQR: 44–52). Participants with more than 20 years education experience reported higher readiness for change (median: 48, IQR: 42–49). No significant differences were found in readiness based on gender (p = 0.13), qualification level (p = 0.88), and employee designation (p = 0.32).

Conclusion

Change commitment and efficacy varied across the nursing colleges but were generally positive. Marginally high readiness for change implementation requires strategic support that goes beyond resources, staff qualifications and position. Members’ collective commitment and confidence are important determinants for change readiness.

期刊介绍： International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences (IJANS) is an international scientific journal published by Elsevier. The broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets, i.e. to publish the most exciting research with respect to the subjects of Nursing and Midwifery in Africa, and secondly, to advance the international understanding and development of nursing and midwifery in Africa, both as a profession and as an academic discipline. The fully refereed journal provides a forum for all aspects of nursing and midwifery sciences, especially new trends and advances. The journal call for original research papers, systematic and scholarly review articles, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing as related to nursing and midwifery in Africa, technical reports, and short communications, and which will meet the journal''s high academic and ethical standards. Manuscripts of nursing practice, education, management, and research are encouraged. The journal values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic significance for educators, practitioners, leaders and policy-makers of nursing and midwifery in Africa. The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of nursing, and is also inviting international scholars who are engaged with nursing and midwifery in Africa to contribute to the journal. We will only publish work that demonstrates the use of rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of nursing and midwifery as it relates to the Africa context.
