Effects of a learning programme for nurse managers to connect their experience: A quasi-experimental study
1School of Nursing, Japanese Red Cross Kyusyu International College of Nursing, Fukuoka, Japan.
Aim:
The present study aimed to examine the effects of a learning programme for nurse managers on connecting learning with their own experiences and fostering competence.
Background:
In Japan, second-level programmes for certified nurse administrators represent the main opportunity for formal training for nurse managers. However, it is difficult for nurse managers to transfer second-level programme learning to their workplace.
Methods:
This quasi-experimental study used a two-group pretest-posttest design with purposive sampling and non-random assignment of 29 consenting Japanese nurse managers who were participating in a second-level programme through a prefectural nursing association. The programme provided reflection papers and feedback from a researcher, as well as reflective group sessions. The outcome measure was the Japanese First-Line Nurse Managers Competence Inventory (JNMCI) score.
Results:
The intervention group showed significant improvement in JNMCI scores after participating in the programme. A significant difference in JNMCI scores was also observed between the intervention and comparison groups.
Conclusion:
This learning programme led to improved competency among nurse managers.
Implications For Nursing Management:
Nurse manager development programmes should include reflection papers and feedback, as well as reflective group sessions, to improve competency among nurse managers.
