Abstract: | The research study described here was commissioned by the English National Board to examine nursing in the context of Project 2000 implementation. The research team explored the impact of Project 2000 on students, managers and practitioners. Students and diplomates were perceived to be patient-oriented and holistic in approach; basic nursing care was identified as a central role of qualified nurses. Perceptions of nursing shifted as the course progressed to include health promotion, and research and theory as a basis for practice. Aspects of the course valued by students included the broader academic input, interpersonal skills, life sciences, supernumerary status and the challenging approach advocated by the course. Students were concerned about the timing of the biological science modules, which often did not coincide with their practice experiences. Students identified poor course organisation and poor teaching skills of some lecturers as areas for concern. Managers and practitioners identified students as potential agents of change who challenged traditional expectations of newly qualified nurses. |
