Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
There has been a recent increasing interest in reflective practice in nursing. There is a wealth of literature about its apparent advantages and benefits, but very little empirical research into clinical outcomes consequent to reflective practice. This study attempts an initial exploration into this area. A retrospective, three-phase, multi-method study in a single department of nursing was conducted. The research sample comprised students and former students of the department who had previously participated in an assessed reflective practice course or module. Years of experience, speciality or academic level did not have a significant influence, but the effectiveness of the facilitator was an important factor. The results suggest that reflective practice is regarded highly and that most respondents could identify significant, long-term changes to clinical practice resulting from it. |
