学士学位护理课程的毕业生预计将表现出应对紧急情况的基本能力,包括与应急准备和灾害应对有关的能力。教师发现它具有挑战性,提供学习经验,使学生能够使用适当的评估,临床判断,并在灾难,大规模伤亡和其他紧急情况下的决策技能。本文介绍了一所学校的护理和大学的卫生服务,形成一个医疗后备队之间的伙伴关系。这种伙伴关系导致了独特的和多样化的学习经验,为护理专业的学生与其他专业学科的志愿者和外行合作。医疗后备队为学生提供机会,亲身体验应急准备和灾害应对,并培养通才护理实践所需的能力。
Graduates of baccalaureate nursing programs are expected to demonstrate basic competency in responding to emergencies, including those related to emergency preparedness and disaster response. Faculty find it challenging to provide learning experiences that enable students to use appropriate assessment, clinical judgment, and decision making skills during disaster, mass casualty, and other emergency situations. This article describes a partnership between a school of nursing and a university health service to form a Medical Reserve Corps. The partnership resulted in unique and diverse learning experiences for nursing students in collaboration with volunteers from other professional disciplines and laypeople. The Medical Reserve Corps provides opportunities for students to experience emergency preparedness and disaster responses firsthand and to develop competencies required for generalist nursing practice.
