Patient safety competencies in undergraduate nursing students: a rapid evidence assessment

Abstract

Few studies describe the nursing students' patient safety competencies and exactly what they need to learn. In addition, studies describe only briefly which clinical learning environments facilitate the development of patient safety competencies in nursing students. Further research is needed to identify additional pedagogical strategies and the specific characteristics of the clinical learning environments that encourage the development of nursing students' patient safety competencies.

Efecto De Un Programa De Intervención Educativa Sobre El Conocimiento De Seguridad De Pacientes en Estudiantes De Pregrado De Enfermería

“…La seguridad clínica debe ser objetivo clave de la educación de Enfermería en pregrado, donde es fundamental instruir a los futuros profesionales en temas relevantes como la calidad del cuidado, epidemiología de los eventos adversos, además de su prevención y control (6,7).…”

“…Especial mención merecen los estudiantes que inician por primera vez sus prácticas clínicas, los cuales no han tenido la oportunidad de desarrollar una conciencia de riesgo para el paciente, problemas de seguridad, o un sentido claro de la responsabilidad que recae en el personal de enfermería (6,8). En ese entendido, la estructuración del plan de enfermería supone tener en cuenta el riesgo específico de cada paciente, así como el contexto organizacional en el cual se actúa profesionalmente (12).…”

Segurança do paciente: investigação fenomenológica de um grupo de pesquisa

“…A literatura demonstra que , ao serem apresentados à segurança do paciente ainda na universidade, os futuros profissionais de saúde reconhecem a relevância do conteúdo para sua formação, mostram-se encorajados e, como consequência, identifica-se grande impacto na assistência prestada ao paciente (7) . Nesse sentido, a formação dos profissionais de saúde é considerada fator chave para contribuir com a promoção da segurança do paciente.…”

The Effectiveness of a Course on Patient Safety Management on the Patient Safety Competencies by Final Year Bachelor of Nursing Students in the Netherlands

“…In addition, the OSCE includes awareness of the culture and the complexity of the healthcare system, as well as teamwork and the relevance of learning from skills [19,21]. Similar to the patient safety framework of the WHO, the Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) includes six quality and patient safety domains, more specifically patient-centred care, evidence based practice, quality improvement, informatics, patient safety, teamwork and collaboration [1,2,10,[22][23][24][25][26]. These domains were explicitly established to create inter-professional education [23].…”

“…Quality improvements in patient safety often focus on changing culture [29]. These environments should enhance learning form mistakes by analysing what happened to gain a full understanding of the encounter without triggering a judgmental behaviour [22]. In order to acquire a level of mastery on patient safety competencies, nursing education uses appropriate teaching methods to supply the fundamental components of patient safety [1,3,4,[8][9][10]27].…”
