Sjuksköterskestudenters uppfattning om interprofessionellt lärande

Sammanfattning: Aim: To evaluate nurse student’s apprehension of an interprofessional seminar as part of training. Method: A descriptive, qualitative study built on the analysis of 43 questionnaires and one group interview with nurse student’s who participated in the seminar. For the analysis of the collected material we used the method of analysis of contents as described by Graneheim and Lundman. Primary results: The analysis highlights five different categories which show the nurse student’s apprehension of the seminar. From the analysis of contents it was established that questions remained unanswered after the seminar and that there remained some uncertainty as for the carrying through of the seminar. It was however also established that the seminar helped the students to gain insight about the profession of physiotherapists and the importance of cooperation. All in all, the students apprehended interprofessional education as a valid part of training. Conclusion: An interprofessional seminar together with physiotherapists was a great initiative taken by the responsible for the nursing course. It is important, however, that the information and the tasks are well prepared, and that there is valid follow-up to any interprofessional seminar, in order to make it as successful as possible.
