Peer-Led Virtual Learning: Impact of Dementia-Specific Communication Training for Occupational Therapy Students
Abstract Introduction Occupational therapy students working with people with dementia experience communication barriers. Peer-led communication training, combined with simulation using the Curtin University Empathy Simulator (CUES), may develop students’ communication skills and confidence. Objective This study investigated peer-led, communication training on occupational therapy students’ communication and perceived knowledge, confidence, and satisfaction. Method A mixed-methods quasi-experimental study design was used. The experimental group (n = 27) completed peer-led face-to-face training and interacted with the CUES. The control group (n = 26) completed online peer-led training. Evaluation included observation, pre-post questionnaires, and semi-structured interviews. Results Self-rated communication skills, knowledge, and confidence improved significantly in both groups, the control group experienced greater improvements (p ≤ 0.001) compared to the experimental group. In contrast, qualitative results found peer-led communication training using a virtual avatar fostered safe, authentic and practical learning environments. Conclusion Peer-led training using the CUES developed occupational therapy students’ ability to communicate with people with dementia.
期刊介绍:
This comprehensive journal is recognized for its useful balance of research and clinical practice articles. For more than twenty five years Physical & Occupational Therapy in Geriatrics has functioned as a forum for allied health professionals as well as others with a focus on rehabilitation of the geriatric client to share information, clinical experience, research, and therapeutic practice. Each issue focuses on current practice and emerging issues in the care of the older client, including rehabilitation and long-term care in institutional and community settings, and innovative programming; the entire range of problems experienced by the elderly; and the current skills needed for working with older clients.
