Brief Summary

There are two main treatments for end-stage renal disease (ESRD): dialysis and transplantation.Renal transplantation is the best and most preferred treatment for ESRD patients.Self management after renal transplantation is difficult. Individuals need appropriate care,education, counseling and support in order to change their behavior to cope with health problems during the transplantation process.The aim of nursing care and education is to enable the individual to acquire the knowledge, skills and attitude to independently carry out daily life activities and to adopt this as a lifestyle.Nursing care and education requires an interdisciplinary teamwork, and in this process, the nurse plays a key role as she constantly interacts with the donor, recipient and family.The research was designed as a randomized controlled experimental study with pretest-posttest design.A total of 60 nurses, 30 in the control group and 30 in the intervention group,who met the criteria for inclusion in the study, will form the sample of the study.After obtaining consent from the nurses in the intervention and control groups, they will be asked to fill out the Nurse InformationForm, the Patient-Centered Care Competency Scale and the Nurses Counseling Skills Scale. Aftercompleting the web-based training, intervention group nurses will be asked to fill in the Patient Centered Care Competency Scale and the Counseling Skills in Nurses Scale at the 1st and 3rd months. No training will be given to the nurses in the control group and they will be asked to fill the Patient-Centered Care Competency Scale and the Counseling Skills for Nurses Scale again.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Patient-Centered Care Competency Scale

    Scale, by Hwang (2015); It was developed in order to determine the competencies of nurses in patient-centered care. The Turkish validity and reliability of the scale was made by Arslanoğlu and Kırılmaz (2019). The Cronbach Alpha coefficient is 0.850. Patient-centered care competence consists of 17 questions and 4 sub-dimensions. Sub-dimensions; respecting the point of view (perspective) of patients (item 1-6), encouraging patient participation in care processes (items 7 and 11), ensuring patient comfort (items 12 and 14), and defending the rights of patients (15. - Article 17). Scale; It was designed as a 5-point Likert scale: 1-Strongly Disagree, 2-Disagree, 3-Undecided, 4-Agree, 5-Strongly Agree.
