Summary
This study suggests a collaborative method using dedicated education units to prepare nursing students for relationship-based care. This approach integrates relationship-based care phases and Benner
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Healthcare Collaboration
- Patient-Centered Care
Background:
- Relationship-based care (RBC) is crucial for effective nursing practice.
- Traditional nursing education models may not fully prepare students for RBC implementation.
- Dedicated Education Units (DEUs) offer a unique setting for clinical learning.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a collaborative framework for preparing nursing students in relationship-based care.
- To outline how a DEU can facilitate the integration of RBC principles.
- To enhance the nursing student learning process through RBC.
Main Methods:
- A collaborative approach integrating RBC phases and Benner's novice-to-expert model.
- Utilizing the structure of upper-division nursing curriculum semesters.
- Implementation within a dedicated education unit (DEU) setting.
Main Results:
- The proposed collaborative model facilitates nursing students' transition to relationship-based care.
- DEUs provide a structured environment for applying RBC principles.
- Student learning is enhanced through practical application of RBC.
Conclusions:
- A collaborative DEU model effectively prepares nursing students for relationship-based care.
- Integrating RBC phases and novice-to-expert progression optimizes student development.
- Relationship-based care significantly enhances the nursing student learning experience.
