Review of Use of Standardized Patients in Psychiatric Nursing Education

Abstract

Well-designed research studies are needed to develop an evidence base for this promising and increasingly employed teaching method.

Hemşirelik Eğitiminde Standardize Hasta Kullanımı

“…Psikiyatri hemşireliği eğitiminde SH kullanılmasının; eğitimin niteliğini, öğrenenlerin öğrenmeye yönelik güdülenmelerini artıracağı ve olumlu öğrenme deneyimleri yaşamalarına katkıda bulunacağı belirtilmektedir (Goodman & Winter, 2017;Sarıkoç, Özcan, & Elçin, 2016;Sarikoç, Özcan, & Elçin, 2017). Çocuk hemşireliği eğitiminde, çocuk ile iletişim becerisinin sadece senaryo ile SH üzerinde ya da rol-play şeklinde erişkin bireylerin katılımıyla sağlanabileceği belirtilmektedir (Canbulat Şahiner, Türkmen, & Kuğuoğlu, 2017;Kenny, Cargil, Hamilton, & Sales, 2016).…”

Interprofessional education in nursing: The impact of collaboration between physical and mental health care professionals

“…There have been reports for decades regarding the benefits of de-institutionalizing people with mental illnesses, which decreases the number of people hospitalized in psychiatric facilities as well as the number of days they stay in the hospital [ [3] , [4] , [5] ]. This has also increased the use of community mental health resources [ 6 ].…”

“…Such situations tend to increase competition among facilitators to generate care opportunities in practica as interaction potential diminishes and learning opportunities become limited [ 5 ]. Within this context, active and innovative methodologies have been introduced in training, among which is the use of clinical simulations (SIM), a promising teaching method that is increasingly used in psychiatry, since it avoids high variability within student-patient interactions [ 5 ].…”

“…The benefits of using SPs can be divided into 3 components [ 1 , 5 , 9 ]: a) Practicum: real cases can be simulated with specific medical conditions. The situation, scenario, level of difficulty and exposure time are flexible and controllable according to the needs and objectives of the content.…”

“…Also, psychologists who do not develop interpersonal skills in practical activities during training underestimate this competence [ 28 ]. There is evidence that these courses improve learning, but it is not known with certainty how they impact caring ability [ 5 , 21 ].…”
