Summary
Implementing trauma-informed educational practices (TIEP) in graduate nursing programs is feasible and well-received. These practices prioritize student wellness and emotional safety, addressing the daily realities of trauma experienced by many students.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Psychology
- Public Health
Background:
- Graduate nursing students face significant stressors, including trauma histories, impacting academic performance.
- Traditional academic environments may not adequately support students with trauma.
- Trauma-Informed Educational Practices (TIEP) offer a framework to mitigate these challenges.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the feasibility and perceived impact of TIEP in an asynchronous Family Nurse Practitioner course.
- To assess student satisfaction with trauma-informed modifications.
- To identify key themes related to student experiences with TIEP.
Main Methods:
- A pilot study utilized a mixed-methods design with two consecutive student cohorts.
- Trauma-informed strategies were integrated into an asynchronous Family Nurse Practitioner course.
- Quantitative surveys (pre- and post-intervention) and qualitative feedback (open-ended responses, course evaluations) were collected.
Main Results:
- All surveyed students (n=25) reported adverse childhood experiences or trauma related to nursing practice.
- Post-intervention surveys (n=12) showed high student satisfaction with course modifications.
- Qualitative feedback highlighted the importance of emotional safety, faculty connection, and wellness reminders.
Conclusions:
- TIEP can be feasibly integrated into asynchronous graduate NP education and are positively received by students.
- TIEP foster emotional safety, connection, and wellness, aligning with essential competencies for advanced practice nursing.
- Further research could explore the impact of TIEP on academic and clinical outcomes.

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

2.2K
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...

The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.

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...
