Keywords:
In-charge nurse, Pediatric surgery Department, role developmentAbstract
This qualitative research aimed to study a role development to be in-charge nurses of the pediatric surgery department of a government university hospital in Bangkok Metropolis. Fourteen key informants whose work related to take care of pediatric patients undergoing surgical treatment, including ten professional nurses who had experienced as in-charge nurses for more than 1 year, two nurse administrators, and two pediatricians were recruited in the study. Verbatim transcription was used. Data were analyzed by content analysis.
The results showed that four themes associated to a role development to be in-charge nurse were as follows. 1) Preparation before positioning both from the department and nurses themselves. 2) Developed their in-charge nurses during in-service roles. 3) Coped with their stress and growing in maturity of their “new in-charge nurses”, and 4) Factors strengthening to the new in-charge nurses.
This study can be applied as a guideline of preparation for effective in-charge nurses and professional development.
