Summary
A new oncology nursing curriculum using a flipped classroom approach reduced first-year turnover rates. Investing in nurse transition programs is crucial for oncology nursing specialization and retention.
Area of Science:
- Oncology Nursing
- Healthcare Workforce Development
- Nursing Education
Background:
- Critical shortages of chemotherapy and immunotherapy-trained nurses identified in a 51-hospital system.
- Concerns regarding overall nurse retention and turnover rates within the healthcare system.
Purpose of the Study:
- To design and implement a novel multimodal oncology curriculum.
- To address staff shortages and improve nurse retention in oncology.
Main Methods:
- Utilized a flipped classroom technique within the oncology curriculum.
- Implemented a multimodal educational approach for oncology nurses.
Main Results:
- Lower first-year turnover rates observed in nurses participating in the new curriculum.
- Positive impact of the program on nurse retention.
Conclusions:
- Healthcare systems should invest in infrastructure for nurse transition into practice programs.
- Programs are essential to prepare, sustain, and stimulate specialization in oncology nursing.

Ethical principles are essential in guiding nurses to fulfill their responsibilities, focusing on the quality of nursing care and decision-making. These principles, including autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and fidelity, shape the ethical framework within healthcare settings.
Consider the following scenario, which illustrates how these principles are applied in the care of Mr. John, a fifty-year-old teacher diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer.

Cancer therapies are various modes of treatment, such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy that are administered to cancer patients.
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...

Theories play an essential role in organizing patient care. Theories refer to a proposed or followed belief, policy, or procedure that is the basis for action. Nursing theories are knowledge-based concepts that guide nurses' actions, influence nursing education and practice, and allow nurses to care for their patients.
Theories provide a perspective to assess patients' conditions and organize data and methods. They also assist in analyzing and interpreting information. They represent a...

01:24Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching II: Planning and Implementation
1.7K
Planning for learning involves the development of a teaching plan. Teaching plans are similar to nursing care plans—both follow the steps of the nursing process. Planning in the teaching process involves setting goals and outcomes. Here, goals identify what a patient needs to achieve to understand a healthcare topic better, whereas the outcomes are the action to be performed by the patient to achieve the goal within a timeframe. For example, if the goal is to educate the patient about...
