Nursing students perceived laboratory human resources positively, but physical infrastructure and accommodation require improvement. Lab working hours and staff support were rated favorably, highlighting key areas for enhancement in nursing education.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Health Professions Education
Context:
- Nursing laboratories are crucial for practical skill development in nursing education.
- Student perception of laboratory resources directly impacts the teaching-learning process.
Purpose:
- To assess nursing students' perceptions of nursing laboratory aspects.
- To identify strengths and weaknesses in the physical, educational, and human elements of the nursing lab.
Summary:
- A quantitative, cross-sectional study surveyed 85 nursing students on laboratory resources.
- Students rated physical infrastructure and accommodation poorly, but human resources (specialists, monitors) highly.
- Favorable ratings were given to lab working hours and staff, with human resources identified as the strongest aspect.
Impact:
- Findings can inform improvements to nursing laboratory facilities and resource allocation.
- Enhancing the laboratory environment can improve the quality of nursing education and student training.
- Addressing student feedback is vital for optimizing the effectiveness of practical nursing education.
