Lisans Son Sınıf Hemşirelik Öğrencilerinin Öz Şefkat Deneyimleri: Tanımlayıcı Kalitatif Çalışma

Giriş: Son yıllarda öz şefkat, şefkatli bakımı kolaylaştırabilecek bir kavram olarak tartışılmaktadır. Bununla birlikte, hemşirelik öğrencileri için öz şefkatin anlamı ve hemşirelik bakımındaki yeri hakkında çok az şey bilinmektedir. Amaç: Araştırmanın amacı, hemşirelik son sınıf öğrencilerinin öz-şefkat deneyimlerini, hasta bakımında öz-şefkatin önemine ilişkin algılarını ve öz şefkatin önündeki engelleri keşfetmektir. Yöntem: Bu araştırma tanımlayıcı kalitatif bir çalışmadır. Veriler kalitatif içerik analizi kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular:Analiz sonucunda üç tema ortaya çıkmıştır: (1) başkalarına gösterdiğim gibi kendime şefkat gösterebiliyor muyum?, (2) öz şefkatin önündeki engeller ve (3) öz şefkati geliştirmek. Sonuç: Hemşirelik son sınıf öğrencilerinin bakış açısıyla öz-şefkatin şefkatli bakım sağlamada önemli olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Bulgular, öz şefkatin önündeki engellerin farkında olarak öz şefkat kavramının lisans eğitimine entegre edilmesinin gerekliliğini ortaya koymaktadır.

Methods: This research constitutes a qualitative descriptive study. The data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Results: Three themes emerged: (1) am I able to show compassion for myself as I show it for others?, (2) barriers to self-compassion, and (3) Improving self-compassion. Conclusion: It was concluded that self-compassion is important for providing compassionate care from the perspective of senior baccalaureate nursing students. The findings suggest the necessity of integrating the concept of self-compassion into undergraduate education by being aware of any barriers to self-compassion.
