Abstract

Objective In this study, it was aimed to determine the culturespecific caregiving competence, difficulties experienced, and recommendations for solution regarding the students taking a pediatric nursing course. Material and Method 169 students were included in the study. The data of the research were collected online using the "Introductory Information Form" and the "Nurse Cultural Competence Scale". SPSS 20.0 software was used in the analysis of the data, and comparisons according to demographic characteristics were made with a t-test and ANOVA. Ethics committee approval to conduct the study and the participants' consent were obtained. Results The mean age of the students participating in the study was 22.72±1.77 years, and the majority of them (74%) were female. The mean score obtained by the students on the Nurse Cultural Competence Scale was calculated as 72.20±11.41. The cultural competence levels of the students who did not have the experience of caring for a patient from a different culture (75.03±10.91) were found to be significantly higher than the students who had such experience (70.73±11.44) (p=0.019). The cultural competence levels of the students who thought that the courses taken during their nursing education were sufficient to provide care to patients from different cultures (74.76±9.34) were found to be significantly higher than the students who did not think (69,15±12,88) that the nursing education was sufficient (p=0.002). Conclusion It is considered that supporting students in foreign language education during nursing education, including practices specific to different cultures in the course content, and providing students with the opportunity to work with patients from different countries through exchange programs as much as possible will increase their levels of cultural competence.

Özet

Amaç Bu araştırmada; pediatri hemşireliği dersi alan öğrencilerin kültüre özgü bakım verme yeterliliği, yaşadığı güçlükler ve çözüm önerilerinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem Araştırmaya 169 öğrenci dahil edilmiştir. Araştırmanın verileri “Tanıtıcı Bilgi Formu” ve “Hemşire Kültürel Yeterlik Ölçeği” kullanılarak online olarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde SPSS 20.0 programı kullanılmış olup demografik özelliklere göre karşılaştırmalar t-testi ve ANOVA ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın yürütülebilmesi için etik kurul onayı ve katılımcılardan bilgilendirilmiş onam alınmıştır. Bulgular Araştırmaya katılan öğrencilerin yaş ortalamaları 22,72±1,77 yıl ve çoğunluğu (%74) kadındır. Öğrencilerin Hemşire Kültürel Yeterlik Ölçeği’ne verdikleri puan ortalaması 72,20±11,41 olarak hesaplandı. Farklı bir kültürden gelen hastaya bakım verme deneyimi olmayan öğrencilerin kültürel yeterlik düzeyleri (75,03±10,91) deneyimi olan öğrencilere göre (70,73±11,44) anlamlı düzeyde yüksek bulunmuştur (p=0,019). Hemşirelik eğitimi boyunca alınan derslerin farklı kültürdeki hastalara bakım vermede yeterli olduğunu düşünen öğrencilerin kültürel yeterlik düzeyi (74,76±9,34) yeterli olduğunu düşünmeyenlere göre (69,15±12,88) anlamlı düzeyde yüksek bulunmuştur (p=0,002). Sonuç Hemşirelik eğitimi boyunca öğrencilerin yabancı dil eğitimi konusunda desteklenmesi, farklı kültürlere özgü uygulamaların ders içeriklerinde yer alması ve mümkün olduğunca öğrencilere değişim programları ile farklı ülkelerdeki hastalarla çalışma imkanı sağlanmasının kültürel yeterlik düzeyini artıracağı düşünülmektedir.
