Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this study, the aim is to evaluate the effects of patient advocacy training provided to nurses on their advocacy skills, ethical sensitivity, and patient safety culture level.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This research is a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) conducted to investigate the impact of patient advocacy training on nurses by evaluating its effectiveness in increasing nurses' ethical sensitivity and promoting a positive patient safety culture through Bloom's Taxonomy. This study, which will deeply examine the relationship between patient advocacy training, ethical sensitivity, and patient safety culture, aims to provide evidence-based insights that can inform nursing education, training programs, and healthcare policies, ultimately contributing to the improvement of patient outcomes and the overall quality of healthcare delivery.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

Control and intervention group nurses will receive routine training provided by the Hospital Education and Quality Unit. After obtaining informed consent and conducting pre-tests, the 70 nurses forming the study group will be randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups using simple randomization. Subsequently, the intervention group of 35 nurses will receive 8 weeks of training. After the training, both groups will undergo post-tests.

The tools used for evaluation are as follows:

* Personal Information Form
* Patient Advocacy Scale for Nurses
* Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire
* Patient Safety Culture Hospital Questionnaire

These tools will be administered and evaluated by a specialist nurse in both groups.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

measuring knowledge level

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The study group consists of 70 nurses, each consisting of 35 people. After the routine training of the hospital was given to the control and experimental groups, their consents were obtained and the pre-tests were completed, they were divided into experimental and control groups using simple randomization. The first group of nurses in the control group will not receive any intervention other than the routine training given by the hospital.
