Abstract:
Purpose:This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a nursing education program for hyperglycemia patient care using standardized patients.
Methods:This study used a nonequivalent control group pre-test and post-test non-synchronized design. A total of 50 senior university nursing students who had completed an adult nursing course participated in this study (experimental group, n=24; control group, n=26). This nursing education program was developed according to the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The collected data were analyzed using χ2-test, Fisher’s exact test, independent t-test, paired t-test, and repeated measure ANOVA.
Results:Significant differences were shown between the experimental and control groups in clinical performance ability (F=277.41, p<.001), communication skills (F=47.18, p<.001), self-efficacy (F=3.81, p=.031), and learning satisfaction (t=2.25, p=.033). Problem-solving ability was not statistically significant between the groups.
Conclusion:The nursing education program for hyperglycemia patient care using standardized patients was effective in improving nursing students’ clinical performance ability, communication skills, and learning satisfaction. Therefore, it is proposed that the education program developed in this study be used as part of an education program to enhance nursing students’ abilities in caring for hyperglycemia patients.
