Abstract

Purpose: This study reviewed the innovative educational strategies that have been implemented successfully in US baccalaureate nursing education programs to facilitate appropriate attitudes about caring for older adults. Methods: The data were collected through a search of PubMed and CINAHL using the key words, gerontological or geriatric, attitudes about aging or older people, baccalaureate or undergraduate nursing education or curriculum. Results: The successful strategies are categorized as follows: 1) a multidisciplinary approach integrating aging issues and gerontological contents into diverse nursing courses, 2) active participation of community-dwelling healthy older individuals as an educational mentor, 3) use of audiovisual materials to investigate the misconceptions and attitudes about aging, and 4) discussion through critical thinking and self-reflection toward aging. Implications: For the interdisciplinary approach within nursing courses, it is essential to derive the key contents for gerontological nursing applicable to integration into diverse nursing courses. In addition, it is necessary to provide administrative support for implementing innovative strategies and constructing consistent partnerships with the community for active participation of the elderly as a mentor. Lastly, recognizing the significance of educational strategies for enhancing desirable attitudes toward gerontological nursing and supporting the development of educational capability of a faculty are key issues.

연구목적: 본 연구는 미국의 학부 간호교육에서 노인간호에 대한 바람직한 태도를 강화하기 위해 시도된 새로운 교육적 접근법을 고찰하고 국내 간호교육에서의 적용방안을 모색하고자 수행되었다. 연구방법: PubMed, CINAHL의 검색엔진을 사용해 미국 John A. Hartford 재단의 지원으로 노인간호교육을 위한 획기적인 전략개발 프로젝트를 수행한 간호대학의 연구 8편과 그 외 다양한 교육적 방안을 고찰한 논문 4편을 포함한 12편의 연구를 고찰하였다. 연구결과: 노인간호에 대한 올바른 태도형성을 위해 제시된 교육적 접근법은 다음의 네 가지로 구분할 수 있다: 1) 노인간호에 대한 간호전공교과 간의 연계교육, 2) 지역사회 노인의 교육적 멘토 역할, 3) 시청각 매체의 활용, 4) 자기성찰을 통한 토론학습. 향후 응용: 국내 간호교육에서의 효과적인 적용을 위해서는 연계교육을 위한 간호전공교과목 간의 긴밀한 협의 및 교육과정의 탄력적 운영을 위한 교육행정부서의 협조가 수반되어야 한다. 또한, 교육기관과 지역사회와의 긴밀한 파트너십을 구축함으로써 지역사회 노인이 교육적 멘토로 참여하는 방안을 적용해 나갈 수 있다. 무엇보다, 노인간호에 대한 바람직한 태도형성을 위한 간호교육의 중요성을 인식하고 교수자의 교육역량강화와 새로운 교수법 개발을 위한 지속적 노력이 요구된다.
