'Nursing the nurses': the experiences of professional nurse advocates' application of the A-EQUIP model.
Background: Using the Advocating for Education and Quality Improvement (A-EQUIP) model, professional nurse advocates are educated to lead the delivery of restorative clinical supervision, helping to support nurses in their professional practice, improving resilience and supporting a positive impact on patient care.
Aim: To explore professional nurse advocates' experiences of implementing the role and using the A-EQUIP model in clinical practice.
Methods: A qualitative phenomenological approach using focus groups, with data collected over a 3-month period in 2023, analysed using a three-stage process based on thematic analysis.
Findings: Four themes emerged: preparedness; nurture; A-EQUIP, its application and use; and asset.
Conclusion: Appropriate selection of candidates, greater standardisation of education by higher education institutions, adaptation of the A-EQUIP model and organisational support are required to embed the professional nurse advocate's role.
