Nurses often utilize handoffs as an avenue for socialization, education, and emotional support to facilitate integration and staff cohesion [ 19 ].…”

BackgroundThe context of the study is the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality’s Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture (HSOPSC). The purpose of the study is to analyze how different elements of patient safety culture are associated with clinical handoffs and perceptions of patient safety.MethodsThe study was performed with hierarchical multiple linear regression on data from the 2010 Survey. We examine the statistical relationships between perceptions of handoffs and transitions practices, patient safety culture, and patient safety. We statistically controlled for the systematic effects of hospital size, type, ownership, and staffing levels on perceptions of patient safety.ResultsThe main findings were that the effective handoff of information, responsibility, and accountability were necessary to positive perceptions of patient safety. Feedback and communication about errors were positively related to the transfer of patient information; teamwork within units and the frequency of events reported were positively related to the transfer of personal responsibility during shift changes; and teamwork across units was positively related to the unit transfers of accountability for patients.ConclusionsIn summary, staff views on the behavioral dimensions of handoffs influenced their perceptions of the hospital’s level of patient safety. Given the known psychological links between perception, attitude, and behavior, a potential implication is that better patient safety can be achieved by a tight focus on improving handoffs through training and monitoring.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12913-016-1502-7) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Background:-Professionalism has recently gained attention in nursing education, particularly in psychiatry. Despite it was used to be part of the hidden curriculum, scholars advocate teaching professionalism explicitly in a safe educational environment. Vignettes were used to demonstrate professionalism dilemmas and with the use of triggers for reflection, students can learn the basis for decision making in critical situations though their experiential learning process. Experiential Learning Theory (ELT) emphasizes the central role that experience plays in the learning process.Aim:-This study aims at using a module of vignettes and stimulates student reflection and discussion to help them in constructing the meaning of professionalism in psychiatric practice.Method:-Vignettes were developed based on common situations that psychiatric nurses used to encounter in daily clinical practice. The Authors developed a list questions to trigger their reflection on the Vignettes and guide them to learn about specific elements of professionalism. Students" learning outcomes and feedback were reported as a measure of module effectiveness.The results:-A total of seven vignettes was reported to represent common professionalism dilemmas in clinical psychiatric nursing. The study confirms the feasibility and effectiveness of teaching professionalism by the use of vignettes and the effectiveness of self constructed learning outcomes. The process for the development and the use of vignettes was reported and students debate about the ethical, personal and cultural dimensions of each scenario that drive their decision making.In conclusion, teaching professionalism in Psychiatric education can acknowledge humanistic values such as: respect and altruism. It is essential to prepare nursing students for conflicting situations by discussion of professionalism dilemmas in a safe educational environment and provide them options for decisions. Students need to learn the consequences of their decisions and anticipate the impact of their choices on patients, colleagues and themselves. We need to graduate nurses who will meet the societal
