          Abstract

          RESUMEN: Introducción: Diversos estudios reflejan que determinadas áreas temáticas-clínicas despiertan mayor interés respecto a otras en los estudiantes de enfermería, lo cual repercute en las preferencias laborales de los recién graduados. Esto produce desequilibrios en las organizaciones sanitarias, imposibilitando cubrir determinados servicios. Objetivo Identificar las preferencias laborales de los estudiantes de Enfermería de la Universidad de La Laguna según áreas temáticas clínicas una vez finalicen sus estudios de grado. Método: Estudio observacional, descriptivo, transversal, con componente analítico. La población a estudio estuvo compuesta por los estudiantes de 3º y 4º curso de Enfermería de la Universidad La Laguna. Se recogieron diferentes variables sociodemográficas, así como cuestiones sobre las preferencias laborales de los estudiantes. Se realizó mediante el programa estadístico IBM SPSS v19 un análisis descriptivo y un análisis inferencial (test estadístico X2 de Pearson o el estadístico de Fisher para las variables cualitativas y la prueba de T-Student para la comparación de medias para las cuantitativas) con el fin de explorar la asociación entre las distintas variables. Resultados: La muestra total fue de 153 estudiantes (n=153). La tasa de respuesta fue 53,50%. Las áreas más preferidas fueron Urgencias y Emergencias (Media=3,04±1,05) y Enfermería General (Media=2,54±0,96), mientras las menos favorables fueron “Otras Áreas (docencia-gestión investigación)” (Media=1,10±1,22) y Quirófano y Anestesia (Media=1,58±1,23). Conclusiones: Los estudiantes de enfermería mostraron una mayor disposición por trabajar en unas áreas respecto a otras. Es necesario generar nuevas estrategias con el fin de mejorar la atracción de los estudiantes de enfermería hacia determinadas áreas clínicas.

          ABSTRACT: Introduction Several studies show that certain thematic-clinical areas arouse greater interest among nursing students than others, which has repercussions on the job preferences of recent graduates. This produces inequalities in healthcare organisations, making it impossible to cover certain services. Aim: To identify the job preferences of nursing students at La Laguna University according to clinical subject areas once they have completed their degree studies. Method: Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study with an analytical component. The study population consisted of 3rd and 4th year nursing students at La Laguna University. Different sociodemographic variables were collected, as well as questions about the students' job preferences. A descriptive analysis and an inferential analysis (Pearson's X2 test or Fisher's statistic for qualitative variables and the Student's t-test for the comparison of means for quantitative variables) were carried out using the IBM SPSS v19 statistical programme in order to explore the association between the different variables. Results: The total sample was 153 students (n=153). The response rate was 53.50%. The most preferred areas were Emergency and Urgent Nursing (Mean=3.04±1.05) and General Nursing (Mean=2.54±0.96), while the least favoured areas were "Other Areas (teaching-management-research)" (Mean=1.10±1.22) and Operating Room and Anaesthesia (Mean=1.58±1.23). Conclusions: Nursing students showed a greater willingness to work in some areas than others. It is necessary to generate new strategies in order to improve the attraction of nursing students to particular clinical areas.

          Job preferences of undergraduate nursing students in eastern China: a discrete choice experiment

          Background Shortage and mal-distribution of nursing human resources is an intractable problem in China. There is an urgent need to explore the job preferences of undergraduate nursing students. The main aim of this study is to investigate the stated preferences of nursing students when choosing a job. Methods A discrete choice experiment (DCE) was conducted to assess job preferences of the final year undergraduate nursing students from four medical universities/colleges in Shandong Province, China. Job attributes include location, monthly income, bianzhi (which refers to the established posts and can be loosely regarded as state administrative staffing), career development and training opportunity, work environment and working strength. Mixed logit models were used to analyze the DCE data. Results A total of 445 undergraduate nursing students were included in the main DCE analysis. They demonstrated higher preference for a job with higher monthly income, and the probability of choosing a rural job would increase to 92.8% if monthly income increased from RMB 2000 (US$ 296) to RMB 8000 (US$ 1183). They expressed higher stated preferences for a job which required light working strength and with excellent work environment over other non-economic attributes. Among all attributes, location was the least important attribute. Subgroup analysis showed that students who came from city or county and whose family income was more than RMB 50 000 (US$ 7396) were significantly willing to pay more monthly income for a job in city. Conclusions This study confirmed that economic and non-economic factors both affected the job choices of the students. These results may be more effective for policymakers to perfect the employment policies and design strategies to attract more nursing students taking jobs in rural areas.

            A systematic review of the effectiveness of advanced practice nurses in long-term care.

            To report quantitative evidence of the effectiveness of advanced practice nursing roles, clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners, in meeting the healthcare needs of older adults living in long-term care residential settings. Although studies have examined the effectiveness of advanced practice nurses in this setting, a systematic review of this evidence has not been conducted. Quantitative systematic review. Twelve electronic databases were searched (1966-2010); leaders in the field were contacted; and personal files, reference lists, pertinent journals, and websites were searched for prospective studies with a comparison group. Studies that met inclusion criteria were reviewed for quality, using a modified version of the Cochrane Effective Practice and Organisation of Care Review Group risk of bias assessment criteria. Four prospective studies conducted in the USA and reported in 15 papers were included. Long-term care settings with advanced practice nurses had lower rates of depression, urinary incontinence, pressure ulcers, restraint use, and aggressive behaviours; more residents who experienced improvements in meeting personal goals; and family members who expressed more satisfaction with medical services. Advanced practice nurses are associated with improvements in several measures of health status and behaviours of older adults in long-term care settings and in family satisfaction. Further exploration is needed to determine the effect of advanced practice nurses on health services use; resident satisfaction with care and quality of life; and the skills, quality of care, and job satisfaction of healthcare staff. © 2013 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.
