Developing an integrated curriculum for patient safety in an undergraduate nursing program: a case study. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Nursing students need practical training that connects their theoretical knowledge to patient safety, leading to better nursing care.
  • A case study was conducted to create an integrated curriculum in a nursing college, involving a literature review, syllabus analysis, and development of evaluation tools to enhance patient safety.
  • The resulting curriculum covers six key patient safety topics and is divided into seven courses, aimed at promoting patient safety competencies through both theoretical and practical education.

Article Abstract

Background: Nursing students' practical training should begin when students can apply core knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to patient safety. This necessitates an integrated curriculum in nursing education that links practice to the theory concerning patient safety to enhance patient safety competencies and quality in nursing care. This study aimed to develop an integrated curriculum that incorporates patient safety factors in the existing curriculum to increase patient safety competencies in nursing students.

Method: A case study approach was adopted to explain the development processes of a new curriculum integrating patient safety in the existing outcome-based curriculum of a nursing college. Based on the existing outcome-based curriculum of a nursing college, a four-step process was performed to integrate patient safety component, including quality improvement, into the curriculum: 1) literature review, 2) analysis of course syllabus, 3) selection of courses related to patient safety topics, and 4) development of evaluation tool.

Results: The integrated patient safety curriculum was based on six topics: patient safety principles, teamwork, communication, patient engagement, risk management and, quality improvement, and International Patient Safety Goals. Based on the characteristics of the course according to the level of students in each year, the curriculum was integrated to address patient safety topics in seven courses (four theoretical and three practical). A Patient safety Competency self-assessment checklist was developed for students to naturally acquire patient safety competencies in clinical settings.

Conclusions: This study demonstrated that patient safety topics should be addressed in both theoretical and practical settings across the entire nursing curriculum per the continuity and sequence of education principles.
