This study developed realistic occupational standards for nursing education by involving practitioners. These standards aim to improve healthcare delivery and prepare future nursing professionals effectively.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Education
  • Nursing Practice
  • Occupational Standards

Background:

  • Occupational standards are often perceived as rigid and unsuitable for dynamic vocational training like nursing.
  • The concept of 'fitness for practice' is re-emerging to guide healthcare education and practice development.
  • There is a need to align educational preparation with the demands of future healthcare delivery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and develop realistic and relevant occupational standards for the nursing profession.
  • To integrate these occupational standards into the preregistration nursing curriculum.
  • To bridge the gap between academic education and practical healthcare delivery.

Main Methods:

  • A collaborative project guided by higher education staff and NHS trust practitioners.
