Using Critical Creativity to Reveal Nursing Student Learning in Long-Term Care.
Journal of Nursing Education 2018 March 2
BACKGROUND: The use of teaching-learning strategies that emphasize critical reflection aids students in making sense of complex clinical placement settings, such as those in long-term care (LTC) settings.
METHOD: A qualitative descriptive research design was used to explore the assumptions, anticipations, and realizations of six undergraduate nursing students regarding aging, gerontological nursing, and LTC as they engaged in facilitated critical reflection activities during a 12-week LTC placement.
RESULTS: The content analysis process revealed four main categories describing the student learning experience: Exploring the Therapeutic Nurse-Resident Relationship, Navigating Preceptor Relationships, Expanding Awareness of Context, and Embracing Many Feelings.
CONCLUSION: Students placed in LTC were challenged by the realization of LTC as a complex setting, especially with minimal support from preceptors. Educators should present LTC as a challenging environment, rich with complex issues. There is potential in easing the strain on preceptors by leveraging the faculty educator role in facilitating student learning through critically creative approaches.
