Workplace Violence Training for Nurses

描述（由申请人提供）：研究表明，护士是在工作场所暴力的受害者非常高的风险。美国护理学院协会于1999年发表了一份“立场文件”，强调将与暴力有关的内容作为“基本”内容纳入护理课程，但培训仍然是附带的。美国护士协会（ANA），国际护士理事会（ICN）和美国护理学会（AAN）以及医疗保健工会呼吁增加干预有效性研究。护士工作场所暴力培训是一个密集的基于网络的培训，以帮助注册护士了解，评估，预防和应对工作场所的暴力。自定进度的培训将广泛使用视频来分享专家意见，受害者的经验，提供视频案例研究和行为建模。每个培训单元的前测和后测将有助于跟踪学习情况。继续教育学分将授予课程毕业生。一个可选的培训培训员模块将提供给护士谁想要培训别人。培训员工具包将支持完成培训员单元的护士的培训工作，帮助他们举办关于工作场所暴力的在职讲习班。该工具包借鉴了基于网络的核心课程的视频内容，将包括一个简短的介绍性DVD，概述了医院工作场所的暴力行为，并介绍了对工作场所暴力问题专家和护士受害者的采访。第二张DVD将载有从网站上挑选的视频案例研究和例子，供观看和讨论。还将包括讲习班领导人指南和学习评估工具。从这些讲习班毕业的护士将被邀请完成完整的基于网络的继续教育学分培训。在第一阶段，制作者将编制课程，并制作一个网络培训模块的功能原型，然后由代表目标受众的重点小组对其进行评价。评估人员将使用记录良好的定性技术来分析焦点小组数据。该项目将促进医院护士对工作场所暴力的了解和培训。此外，它将提供机会收集更多关于医院工作场所暴力及其前身的流行情况的数据。最后，它有可能对参加培训的护士进行纵向调查，以确定其长期有效性。7.项目叙述-与公共卫生的相关性研究表明，护士成为工作场所暴力受害者的风险很高。美国护理学院协会于1999年发表了一份“立场文件”，强调将与暴力有关的内容作为“基本”内容纳入护理课程，但培训仍然是附带的。美国护士协会（ANA），国际护士理事会（ICN）和美国护理学会（AAN）以及医疗保健工会呼吁增加干预有效性研究。该项目将促进医院护士对工作场所暴力的了解和培训。此外，它还将提供机会，收集更多关于医院工作场所暴力发生率及其前身的数据。最后，它有可能对参加培训的护士进行纵向调查，以确定其长期有效性。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Research has shown that nurses are at very high risk of being victims of workplace violence. The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) issued a "Position Paper" in 1999 emphasizing the inclusion of violence-related content as "essential" content in nursing curricula yet training remains incidental. The American Nurses Association (ANA), the International Council of Nurses (ICN) and the American Academy of Nursing (AAN) as well as health care labor unions have called for increased intervention effectiveness research. Workplace Violence Training for Nurses is an intensive web-based training to help registered nurses understand, assess, prevent, and respond to violence in the workplace. The self-paced training will make extensive use of video to share expert opinions, victims' experiences, provide video case studies, and behavior modeling. Pre- and post-tests for each training module will help track learning. Continuing education credits will be awarded to program graduates. An optional train-the-trainers module will be available for nurses who want to train others. A trainers toolkit will support the training efforts of those nurses who have completed the Trainer's module to help them conduct in-service workshops on workplace violence. Drawing from video elements of the web-based core curriculum, the toolkit will consist of a short introductory DVD providing an overview of hospital based workplace violence and featuring interviews with experts in, and nurse victims of, workplace violence. A second DVD will contain a selection of video case studies and examples from the website for viewing and discussion. Also included will be a workshop leader's guide and learning assessment tools. Nurses that graduate from these workshops will be invited to complete the full web-based training for continuing education credits. In Phase I, the producers will develop the curriculum and produce a functional prototype of one module of the web training, which will then be evaluated using focus groups representative of the target audiences. Evaluators will use well-documented qualitative techniques to analyze focus group data. This project will advance the knowledge and training of hospital-based nurses about workplace violence. Additionally, it will provide the opportunity to gather more data on the prevalence of hospital workplace violence and its antecedents. Finally, it has the potential for longitudinal surveys of nurses who have taken the training to determine its long-term effectiveness. 7.
