This study introduces a nursing inquiry method using individual practice to build knowledge and enhance care. It helps nurses understand, critique, and improve their practice for better patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Science
  • Action Science
  • Reflective Practice
  • Critical Philosophy

Background:

  • Nursing practice is a valuable source of knowledge creation and modification.
  • Practitioners may not always recognize deficiencies or ineffectiveness in their current practice.
  • Existing knowledge may not fully address specific clinical situations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a method of inquiry based on individual nursing practice.
  • To develop nursing knowledge and improve nursing practice.
  • To foster self-understanding, critique, and improvement among practitioners.

Main Methods:

  • The inquiry method involves three phases: descriptive, reflective, and critical/emancipatory.
  • It utilizes situated, individual instances of nursing practice as the foundation for knowledge development.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Collaboration between nurses, students, researchers, and mentors is encouraged.

    • Main Results:

    • Practitioners gain understanding of the nature and meaning of their practice.
    • Practice is corrected and improved through self-reflection and critique.
    • Models of 'good' practice, theories of application, and practice processes are generated.

    Conclusions:

    • This inquiry method empowers nurses to develop practice-based knowledge.
    • It facilitates the improvement of individual and collective nursing practice.
    • Shared learning and the generation of nursing theory are key outcomes.
