Academic literature on the topic 'Nursing Role playing'

To assess role-playing as a methodology in the teaching-learning process for the Nursing Degree. To identify the attitude of nursing students towards role-playing. To analyze the response of students to their teaching-learning process after role-playing. Relationship is one of the main functions of nursing care in all fields, as it contributes to developing and coping with the various stimuli of life through therapeutic communication, which helps nurses know their role and how to behave according to the situation. Third-year students from the Nursing School of the "X". Academic years 2006-2007 and 2007-2008. The reflexive nature of qualitative research is based on Symbolic Interactionism. The subject category chosen is role-playing and it is sorted into the subcategories and codes. Findings from the analysis of the summaries have allowed us to see what actually happens when using role-playing as a teaching-learning tool in nursing, why and what the consequences are.

Purpose: This study intends to examine the effects of a stepwise communication education program among nursing college students, focusing on scenarios and nursing case-based role playing. Methods: The study design was a one-group repeated measure ANOVA. Participants were 27 nursing students in practice. Students participated in 5-week stepwise communication education program using SBAR; including 1 week of lecture education, 4 weeks of scenarios and nursing case-based role playing. The data were collected at each level of the education process: pre-education, after 1 week of lectures, and after completion of scenarios and nursing case-based role playing. Repeated measures ANOVA was used to determine changes in SBAR technique knowledge and communication self-efficacy. Results: The stepwise communication education program using SBAR was effective in increasing SBAR technique knowledge, and communication self-efficacy. The lecture-based education was effective only in the area of SBAR technique knowledge and its subscale, attitudes towards SBAR. However, scenarios and nursing case-based role playing was broadly effective across communication self-efficacy, SBAR technique knowledge, and its subscale, knowledge of the SBAR. Conclusion: Based on this study, we propose that it is necessary to confirm the effect of long-term SBAR communication education using scenarios and nursing case-based role playing in nursing students' practice.

The nursing profession requires scientific knowledge, technical abilities and skills. Choosing the right and best teaching method is the most important step in the education process. Role playing is a versatile activity that can facilitate students to learn in real situations. this is a teaching method that has strong and interesting potential to build the skills of nursing students in triage education. Research Objectives: To Provide information about the influence of role-playing method on triage education for nursing students. Method: Sources of research were taken from 3 databases namely PubMed, ProQuest and Ebsco and from Google Scholar using keywords "Role play" or "Role Playing" and "Learning Method" and "Nurse" and "Triage". From the overall results, there are 9 articles that match the inclusion criteria. Results: The 9 articles included in this review. The learning method with role playing influences the nursing students’ communication, cognitive, psychomotor, self reflection, critical thinking and self-efficacy in doing triage process. Conclusion: Role-playing method can facilitate and accommodate increased knowledge and skills. The role-playing method is proven to be able to improve communication, cognitive, psychomotor, self reflection, critical thinking and self-efficacy in nursing triage education. Keywords: Role playing, Learning method, and Triage.

ABSTRACT Objective: Describe the reflections of nursing students on nursing care through the use of role-playing. Method: Qualitative research with descriptive-exploratory approach and documentary base. The data were collected from portfolios of 32 students from an undergraduate course in the Southern Brazil. The analysis of the data followed the steps of sorting, classification in structures of relevance, synthesis and interpretation. Results: Two empirical categories were obtained: (1) Feelings in the act of taking care and receiving care and (2) Reversing roles: benefits to the nurse in the act of caring. Final considerations: The use of role-playing as a strategy for teaching the theme of care to undergraduate students encouraged reflections about the skills and abilities necessary for the act of taking care and favored the students' self-perception as nurses, appropriating the essence of their future profession: care.

The profession of nursing is affected by a nursing and nursing faculty shortage that is impacting the ability to produce adequate numbers of nurse graduates to address the healthcare needs of the future. Nursing schools are increasingly using simulation and/or role-playing to supplement the decreased number of nurse faculty and clinical sites in order to be able to continue to enroll nursing school applicants. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to examine the experiences of nursing students with role-playing and simulation and the extent to which role-playing with simulation is perceived by students as beneficial for learning within the nursing program at the study site. Constructivism theory and experiential learning theory were the theoretical frameworks used to evaluate the student perceptions of combining simulation and role-playing. Seven students from a bachelor's of nursing program volunteered to participate in the study and individual interviews were conducted. Interview transcripts were open coded and analyzed for patterns and themes. The results of the study indicated that the 7 students preferred the combination of simulation and role-playing over the use of either technique independently. It is recommended that simulation coordinators use the combination of role-playing and simulation to enhance student learning in the simulation laboratory. This study promotes positive social change by providing data to the local site on students' perceptions of the benefits of a technique that is able to support instruction and maintain student enrollment during nursing faculty shortages.

Com a transformação da assistência psiquiátrica, torna-se importante verificar como o enfermeiro especialista em enfermagem psiquiátrica e saúde mental se encontra diante de seus papéis, conflitos e gratificações. Assim, trinta e um enfermeiros que se especializaram em enfermagem psiquiátrica e saúde mental responderam um questionário com esse objetivo. Os resultados mostraram que a grande maioria trabalha na área em que se especializaram, e, quanto aos papéis, desenvolvem os administrativos, como: a coordenação e organização do serviço de assistência e participação em conselhos de saúde; os de cuidado direto, como: atuar junto ao paciente e familiar, execução dos cuidados de higiene, medicações e orientações, escuta qualificada, apoio psicológico e controle de crises; específicos do enfermeiro psiquiátrico, como: coordenação/supervisão/orientação da equipe de enfermagem, consulta e pós consulta de enfermagem, exame de estado mental, triagem, acolhimento, visita domiciliar, prevenção na comunidade, escuta terapêutica, avaliação clinica, desenvolvimento de projeto terapêutico individual, profissional de referência, participação em grupos, oficinas e atendimento individual. Possuem conflitos relativos à falta de reconhecimento profissional, como: falta de reconhecimento como enfermeiro especialista, falta de credibilidade no atendimento do enfermeiro especialista e falta de autonomia enquanto enfermeiro; condições de trabalho como: falta de recursos materiais, humanos e de espaço físico, sobrecarga do profissional qualificado, falta de oportunidades de capacitação da equipe, dificuldade de aliar gestão e assistência, dificuldade de associar a teoria com a prática; dificuldades de relacionamento com a equipe, como: profissionais médicos que não conseguem trabalhar em equipe, falta de cooperação entre enfermeiros, desrespeito da equipe pelas decisões tomadas. Como gratificações destacam o reconhecimento profissional, como: agradecimento do paciente pelos serviços prestados, melhora do paciente e reconhecimento da equipe multiprofissional pelo trabalho; reconhecimento pessoal, como: satisfação pessoal, ser reconhecido como enfermeiro psiquiátrico, prazer em trabalhar e paixão pelo que faz; qualificação, como: aplicação dos conhecimentos, postura ética, interesse em buscar mais qualificação e satisfação em conseguir desempenhar o que aprendeu. Assim sendo, pode-se considerar que os enfermeiros pesquisados identificaram o seu papel de especialista na área de enfermagem psiquiátrica e o exercem com propriedade. Seus conflitos relacionaram-se a aspectos de reconhecimento profissional como enfermeiro especializado, estruturais dos serviços e relacionamento, que podem se constituir em agentes complicadores para o desenvolvimento de um bom trabalho, e, suas gratificações, estão ligadas a fatores de reconhecimento profissional, pessoal, qualificação profissional e aplicação de conhecimentos, levando ao entendimento de que o idealismo contido nessas colocações tem grandes chances de serem traduzidos em ações levando a transformações, o que vai de encontro ao que é esperado de um enfermeiro especialista na área de enfermagem psiquiátrica saúde mental.
Due to psychiatric assistance changes, it is important to check how the nurse specialized in psychiatric nursing and mental health deals with his roles, conflicts and rewards. Thus, thirty-one nurses specialized in psychiatric nursing answered a questionnaire for this purpose. Results showed that most of them worked within the area of their specialization and as to roles, they performed administrative ones, such as: coordination and organization of assistance service and participation in health councils; direct care ones, such as: action with patient and relatives, hygiene care performance, medications and guidance, qualified hearing, psychological support and crisis control; psychiatric-nurse specific ones, such as: nursing team coordination/supervision/guidance, nursing appointment and post-appointment, mental state examination, triage, reception, home visit, prevention within the community, clinical evaluation, individual therapeutic project development, reference professional, participation in groups, workshops and individual support. They show conflicts related to the lack of professional recognition, such as: lack of recognition as a specialist nurse, of credibility in specialist nurse assistance and of autonomy as a nurse; work conditions such as: shortage of material and human resources, and physical space, overburden of qualified professional, lack of opportunities for team empowerment, difficulty to ally management and assistance, difficulty to associate theory to practice; difficulty relationship with the team, such as: medical professionals that are not able to work as a team, lack of cooperation among nurses, team\'s disrespect as to decisions made. As rewards they point out professional recognition, as: patient\'s gratitude for services provide, patient\'s improvement and work recognized by the multi-professional team; personal recognition, as: personal satisfaction, recognition as a psychiatric nurse, pleasure to work and passion for the profession; qualification, such as: knowledge application, ethical attitude, interest in looking for a deeper qualification and satisfaction to perform what was learnt. Thus, we may consider that researched nurses have identified their specialized role within psychiatric nursing area and suitably perform it. Their conflicts are related to aspects of professional recognition as a specialized nurse, services structure and relationship, which may become complicating agents for a good work development, and their rewards refer to professional and personal recognition, professional qualifications and knowledge application factors, and we may conclude that idealism contained in these statement has large chances to be translated into actions leading to changes, meeting what is expected from a nurse, who is specialized in psychiatric and mental health nursing area.

A reflexão sobre a necessidade de fundamentar as práticas em educação e saúde, promovendo uma ação transformadora, impulsiona o educador na busca de métodos de ensino inovadores. No cenário educacional, acreditamos que a dramatização favorece a aprendizagem do estudante de forma ativa e participativa. Objetivos: Levantar os estudos relacionados com a aplicação da dramatização como estratégia no processo de ensino e aprendizagem na formação profissional em Enfermagem e verificar os resultados da utilização dessa estratégia na aprendizagem do estudante de Enfermagem. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura, orientada pela questão norteadora: “Quais os resultados da aplicação da dramatização na aprendizagem do estudante de Enfermagem?”. Resultados: Foram encontrados 541 estudos, dos quais 477 foram excluídos e 64 foram incluídos. Dentre os estudos incluídos, todos os 64 (100%) evidenciaram resultados positivos com a utilização da dramatização, 49 (77%) associaram a relação positiva na aquisição de conhecimento teórico, 42 (66%) descreveram a melhora na associação entre teoria e prática após a aplicação da estratégia, 29 (45%) relacionaram melhora no pensamento crítico, 19 (30%) resultaram em melhora do relacionamento interpessoal. Resultados positivos associados à criatividade dos estudantes, ao aspecto comunicacional, à percepção e ao desenvolvimento do senso de coletividade, de trabalho em grupo e comportamento ético profissional também foram comentados. As dificuldades sobre a proposição da atividade dramatizada foram mencionadas em oito (12,5%) estudos, associadas ao embaraço do aluno frente aos colegas pelo medo de exposição no grupo, no relacionamento entre os alunos, dificuldades por parte dos estudantes em estabelecer prioridades. Em 46 (72%) estudos a dramatização foi aplicada no curso de graduação em Enfermagem, respectivamente oito (13%) e nove (14%) foram publicados nos anos de 2004 e 2005, sendo que 44 (69%) eram do tipo descritivo, quarenta (63%) publicados pelos Estados Unidos, 17 (27%) publicados pela revista Nurse Educator e 12 (19%) pelo Journal of Nursing Education. Conclusão: Esses achados refletem a relação positiva da dramatização como estratégia facilitadora do processo educativo, pois favorece a aprendizagem, confere significados aos conteúdos, colabora no desenvolvimento de habilidades técnicas e comunicacionais, na percepção do ser humano de maneira holística, estimulando a criatividade, o pensamento crítico e o relacionamento interpessoal, além de proporcionar um ambiente tranqüilo e seguro para o processo ensino aprendizagem. Favorecendo a construção das competências, a dramatização contribui para a formação do futuro profissional em Enfermagem.
The consideration about the need to support education and health practices, promoting transforming actions, drives the educator in search for innovative teaching methods and, within educational context, we think that role playing favors students learning in an active and participative fashion. Objectives: To identify studies related with the use of role playing as a strategy in the process of teaching/learning in professional nursing training and to check the results of using such strategy in the learning of nursing students. Methodology: This study was a systematic literature review guided by the key question: \"What are the results of the use of role playing in the learning of nursing student?\". Result: There were 541 identified studies, out of which 477 were excluded and 64 were included in the analysis. Among the included studies, all 64 (100%) showed positive results with the use of role playing, 49 (77%) associated positive correlation with acquisition of theoretical knowledge, 42 (66%) described improvement in the association between theory and practice using the strategy, and 29 (45%) related improvement of critical thinking, 19 (30%) resulted in improvement of interpersonal relationship. Positive results associated with undergraduate creativity, communication aspect, perception and development of a sense of collectiveness, work group and professional ethical behavior were also mentioned. Difficulties in the use of role playing activity were mentioned in 8 (12.5%) studies, associated with students embarrassment before classmates because of fear of public exposure, relationship with them and difficulties that students had to define priorities. In 46 studies (72%), the role playing was applied to undergraduate nursing course, respectively, 8 (13%) and 9 (14%) studies were published in 2004 and 2005, and 44 (69%) were descriptive, 40 (63%) were published in the United States, 17 (27%) were published by Nurse Educator Journal, and 12 (19%) by Journal of Nursing Education. Conclusion: These findings show a positive contribution of role playing as a facilitating strategy in the educational process. It favors learning, conveys meaning to contents, collaborates in the development of technical and communication skills, enhances the perception of human beings within a holistic fashion, stimulating creativity, critical thinking and interpersonal relationship. In addition, it provides a calm and safe environment for teaching and learning; by favoring the building of competences, role playing contributes in the nursing education

HIV/AIDS har i många år setts som ett stort hälsoproblem världen över. Trots det går framstegen för att hindra sjukdomens frammarsch sakta. Sydafrika är ett av de hårdast drabbade  länderna  i  världen.  Landets  unika  historia  försvårar  det  hälsofrämjande arbetet. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka sjuksköterskors roll i att förhindra spridningen av HIV/AIDS i Missionvale, en kåkstad utanför Port Elizabeth i Sydafrika. Genom en empirisk kvalitativ intervjustudie undersöktes fenomenet. Sju sjuksköterskor som arbetar i Missionvale intervjuades. Resultatet visar att sjuksköterskor där har en betydelsefull roll i arbetet att förhindra spridningen av HIV/AIDS i området. De anser sig ha en roll i att uppmärksamma riskpatienter genom uppmuntran till och utförandet av HIV- test. I mördavården ser sjuksköterskan sig ha en roll i att hindra smittspridning från mamma till barn. Människor tar inte viruset på allvar, sjuksköterskorna upplever därför att utveckling av allmänhetens kunskap är viktig, liksom uppmuntran till patienters egenansvar i frågan. I uppsatsen diskuteras bland annat sjuksköterskans skyldigheter i förhållande till patientens egenansvar gällande förhindrandet av HIV- spridningen.

This book examines the child on Shakespeare’s stage. As a life force, an impassioned plea for justice, a legacy, history, memory, or image of love or violence, children are everywhere in Shakespeare’s plays. Focusing on Shakespeare’s unique interest in the young body, the life stage, the parental and social dynamic, this book offers the first sustained account of the role and representation of the child in Shakespeare’s dramatic imagination. Drawing on a vast range of contemporary texts, including parenting manuals, household and pedagogic texts, as well as books on nursing and maternity, childbirth and child rearing, Shakespeare’s Children explores the contexts in which the idea of the child is mobilized as a body and image on the early modern stage. Understanding the child, not only as a specific life stage, but also as a role and an abstraction of feeling, this book examines why Shakespeare, who showed little interest in writing for children in the playing companies, wrote so powerfully about them on his stage.

The impulse for patient and public involvement (PPI) in health services reflects wider societal and policy concerns with citizenship and democratic participation. A consumerist turn in health policy has opened the door to advances in involvement initiatives, with nurses often playing a lead role. These involvement practices have developed in the interlinked areas of nursing practice, research, and education. Effective involvement is predicated upon emancipatory values and, as such, involvement practices are concerned with prevailing power relations. The actual form that involvement takes can be thorough, systematic, and empowering or partial, tokenistic, and subsumed under oppressive governance systems. Ultimately, involvement poses key questions for professional nursing identity, allowing for a re-imagining of professionalism that is essentially democratized and cooperative.

Simulation in education involves creating situations that are similar to events, rituals and routines performed in the workplace – or in therapy, consultation, conflicts or similar situations. One recreates as many conditions as are necessary for the students to ‘live’ within what one imitates. Teachers instruct students and run the procedures as if they were ‘reality’. Some simulations, such as in nursing education, require expensive equipment and sophisticated use of ICT. Others can be set up as role-playing games with what one has at their disposal in terms of facilities. The article compares three cases of simulation that were closely examined in connection with a research project. The purpose was to find out if the students experienced this as good quality. The students’ ability to immerse themselves in the situation is of great importance for the benefit of the simulation. Most students find that the situations closely resemble real life and keep them engaged and alert. Teaching that explicitly tries to resemble reality is perceived as very educational.

This study aim to explore the experiences of nursing final-year students on the care of the person in a palliative situation and their family using the role-playing technique. Qualitative, descriptive research developed in October 2020 with 30 third-year nursing students from a palliative care nursing course, in Portugal. Individual debriefing reflections and thematic analysis of the information were conducted. Two main themes emerged: 1) facilitators; and 2) barriers of role-playing in a simulated palliative care context. We concluded that type of simulation allows students to deal with complex palliative care situations from an individual and realistic perspective.

As the first round of baby boomers turn 65 in 2011, we must be prepared for the largest demographic group in history that could need long term care from nursing homes and home health providers. The development of socially assistive robots for health care applications can provide measurable improvements in patient safety, quality of care, and operational efficiencies by playing an increasingly important role in patient care in the fast pace of crowded clinics, hospitals and nursing/veterans homes. However, there are a number of research issues that need to be addressed in order to design such robots. In this paper, we address one of the main limitations to the development of intelligent socially assistive robots for health care applications: Robotic control architecture design and implementation with explicit social and assistive task functionalities. In particular, we present the design of a unique learning-based multi-layer decision making control architecture for utilization in determining the appropriate behavior of the robot. Herein, we explore and compare two different learning-based techniques that can be utilized as the main decision-making module of the controller. Preliminary experiments presented show the potential of the integration of the aforementioned techniques into the overall design of such robots intended for assistive scenarios.

The development of socially assistive robots for health care applications can provide measurable improvements in patient safety, quality of care, and operational efficiencies by playing an increasingly important role in patient care in the fast pace of crowded clinics, hospitals and nursing/veterans homes. However, there are a number of research issues that need to be addressed in order to design such robots. In this paper, we address two main limitations to the development of intelligent socially assistive robots: (i) identification of human body language via a non-contact sensory system and categorization of these gestures for determining the accessibility level of a person during human-robot interaction, and (ii) decision making control architecture design for determining the learning-based task-driven behavior of the robot during assistive interaction. Preliminary experiments presented show the potential of the integration of the aforementioned techniques into the overall design of such robots intended for assistive scenarios.

A new novel breed of robots known as socially assistive robots is emerging. These robots are capable of providing assistance to individuals through social and cognitive interaction. The development of socially assistive robots for health care applications can provide measurable improvements in patient safety, quality of care, and operational efficiencies by playing an increasingly important role in patient care in the fast pace of crowded clinics, hospitals and nursing/veterans homes. However, there are a number of research issues that need to be addressed in order to design such robots. In this paper, we address one main challenge in the development of intelligent socially assistive robots: The robot’s ability to identify, understand and react to human intent and human affective states during assistive interaction. In particular, we present a unique non-contact and non-restricting sensory-based approach for identification and categorization of human body language in determining the affective state of a person during natural real-time human-robot interaction. This classification allows the robot to effectively determine its taskdriven behavior during assistive interaction. Preliminary experiments show the potential of integrating the proposed gesture recognition and classification technique into intelligent socially assistive robotic systems for autonomous interactions with people.
