Brief Summary

Family-Centered Care (FCC) is a care approach based on mutual respect, knowledge sharing, and collaboration among children, families, and healthcare professionals during the planning, implementation, and evaluation of healthcare. Nurses' supportive attitudes may positively influence their care practices and behaviors towards FCC. In this regard, educational training related to FCC may affect nurses' attitudes and behaviors. In the literature, it's evident that there is a need for studies examining how both the attitudes of nurses towards FCC a key determinant of their behavioral predispositions, and the parental satisfaction with healthcare services change in response to the provision of educational training. This study aims to determine the impact of the FCC educational training administered to nurses in pediatric clinics, primarily on nurses' attitudes towards FCC, and secondarily on parental satisfaction with healthcare. With this in mind, this study aims to determine the primary impact of the nurse centered FCC educational training, provided to nurses in pediatric clinics, on nurses' attitudes towards FCC, and its secondary impact on parental satisfaction with healthcare.

EXPERIMENTAL

The administration of the pre-tests, the planning of the educational process, including the development of e-learning modules and video lectures, was shared with the nurses.Each week, the topics were delivered to the nurses through online interactive methods, with each session lasting approximately 45-60 minutes. Six weeks after the completion of the six-week educational training, the nurses were administered the FCCAS post test via an online form. The PedsQL HCPSS was utilized to assess the level of healthcare satisfaction among parents whose children received care in pediatric clinics. To assess parental healthcare satisfaction before the training, the mean scores of the PedsQL HCPSS from the institutional data of the hospital in January 2021 were used. Post training parental data were collected in May-June 2021 using the PedsQL HCPSS from parents whose children received care in pediatric clinics.

Model Details: This non-randomized experimental study, which employs a pre/post-test design, was conducted with the participation of 130 nurses and 100 parents. An educational training, grounded in six weeks of nurse centered interactions, was implemented. Nurse centered interactions and group discussions were conducted by supervising nurses with at least a master of science degree in pediatric nursing, together with the researchers. One week before the educational training, the nurses were administered the Nurse Information Form and FCCAS pre tests, which were conducted using an online form.Six weeks after the completion of the six week educational training, the nurses were administered the FCCAS post-test via an online form.The PedsQL HCPSS was utilized to assess the level of healthcare satisfaction among parents whose children received care in pediatric clinics.
