Summary

District nursing is crucial for the growing elderly population needing home care. This study shows how simulation and expert stories can teach student nurses the essential, often hidden, skills of district nursing assessment.

Area of Science:

  • Community Health Nursing
  • Nursing Education
  • Healthcare Workforce Development

Background:

  • Increasing demand for home nursing care for individuals over 75.
  • Pre-registration adult nurse education adapting to prepare nurses for community settings.
  • District nurses provide complex, holistic assessments and care in non-clinical environments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore how expertise development theory can make tacit district nursing knowledge visible to students.
  • To identify pedagogical strategies for teaching the complexities of the first district nursing assessment visit.
  • To bridge the gap between in-home practice and classroom learning for student nurses.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing expertise development theory to analyze tacit knowledge.
