DRAFTING THE GUIDELINES FOR GRADUATED TO BECOME GERONTOLOGICAL CLINICAL NURSE SPECIALISTS

本研究旨在为研究生成为老年临床护理专家(CNS)起草指南。这项研究是由在护理学院教授本科生和研究生老年学护理学课程的研究人员进行的，首先根据我们的任务进行研究和个人研究，提交报告，然后根据这些报告进行讨论。在这些讨论中，我们考察了日本的老年护理，同时参考了美国的案例。最后，我们起草了适合日本老年护理现状的培训指南。在这些指南中，我们提出了老年学CNS所必需的六种能力。我们认为，每个学生都必须具备这些能力才能成为CNS。为了实现这一目标，我们将课程安排为三类：(1)系内所有学生的必修课；(2)专业课；(3)实践。对于(1)和(2)，我们检查了cu…更多的课程，以确定它是否符合教育目标，以及是否适合日本目前的老年护理情况。在起草准则时，这些被归类为中层优先事项。此外，在审查指标课程时，我们仔细选择了备受好评的中枢神经系统培训课程，并在起草指南时将其归类为法律层面的优先事项。我们还考虑了实习任务，并将其纳入指导方针。这项研究的结果已被用于起草建议的课程，以培养护理研究生。这项提案是由日本护理大学协会提交的。我们预计，这些指导方针将在许多大学得到进一步研究。我们还期望这些指导方针将有助于未来在老年护理领域为CNS设立研究生课程，并将作为老年护理领域CNS的授权标准。这些指导方针也将作为评估该领域未来研究生课程、规划课程和审查课程材料的框架。这应有助于促进研究生课程的进一步发展。此外，我们相信，这些指导方针将成为规划和促进日本老年护理系统和多方面研究的基础。较少

This study was conducted in order to draft the guidelines for graduate students to become gerontological clinical nursing specialists (CNS). The study was conducted by researchers who are teaching undergraduate and graduate gerontological nursing courses at nursing colleges.First we conducted research and individual studies inaccordance with our assignments, submitted reports, and then held discussions based on these reports. In these discussions, we examined elderly care in Japan while referring to cases in the U.S.Finally, we drafted training guidelines suitable to the current elderly care situation in Japan.In these guidelines, we proposed six abilities that are sessential for gerontological CNS.We believe that each student must acpuire these abilities in order to become a CNS.To attain this goal, we arranged the courses into three categories : (1) required courses for all students in the department ; (2) specialized courses ; and (3) practice. As for (1) and (2), we examined the cu … More rriculum to determine whether or not it meets the educational goals as well as being suitable for the current elderly care situation in Japan. These were classified as a mid-level proiority in drafting the guidelines. Also, in examining indicidual curriculum, we carefully selected the repuired curriculum for CNS training and categorized them as a law-level priority in drafting the guidelines. We have also considered the task for practice and included them in the guidelines.Results of this study have been used in drafting the proposed curriculum for training graduate nursing students. This proposal was submitted by the Japanease Nursing Collage Association. We expecte that these guidelines will be further studied at many colleges. We also expect that these duidelines will facilitate the prospective establishment of graduate courses for CNS in the field of gerontological nursing, and will serve as the authorization standards for gerontological CNS.These guidelines will also serve as the framework for evaluating future graduate courses in this field, planning curriculum and examining course materials. This should help promote further development of graduate courses. Moreover, we believe that these guidelines will be the foundation for planning and facilitating systematic and multi-faceted studies of elderly care in Japan. Less
