Nyutexaminerade sjuksköterskors åsikter


AIM: To investigate  newly graduated nurses opinions on their introduction and preceptorship at Akademiska Sjukhuset in Uppsala. METHOD: A descriptive cross-sectional study using qualitative and quantitative evaluations. Data was collected by a questionnaire containing open and closed questions. Totally 42 participants took part in the study. Data analysis was obtained using descriptive statistics, thematic analysis and content analysis. RESULT: A majority considered the orientation of premises received as adequate and of significance for the adaption to their profession. A competent, dedicated, calm and pedagogical preceptor resulted in increased motivation, sense of security and learning as well as self-confidence. A stressed, unavailable, unconcerned or passive preceptor had the result that the introduction was unsatisfactory and that stress could intervene with the own way of working. Access to a mentor was considered to have a rather large significance for professional development. A majority considered that they were sufficiently or reasonably prepared for their profession after completion of their introduction. Good atmosphere, supportive co-workers, independency and clear ward-routines were considered as positive elements for professional development. Element as stress, lack of time and structure and were listed as negative. The participants requested clearer ward-routines, increased continuity and longer introduction.  CONCLUSION: Several elements and qualities in the preceptor was shown to be of positive or negative significance. Suggestions for improvement of preceptorship and introduction at Akademiska sjukhuset, is to make use of and to integrate with the work of the wards. Further  research in Sweden is necessary.
