Facilitators, barriers, and impact of e-learning on healthcare professionals in primary healthcare settings: An integrative review of literature
Background: The Primary Health Care Corporation in Qatar uses continuing professional development (CPD) to improve the knowledge and practices of healthcare professionals (HCPs). Due to COVID-19 CPD delivery has shifted from in-person to e-learning. While the need to provide CPD is evident there is a lack of understanding of how HCPs access and use e-learning and how this learning influences the organizational outcomes in primary care settings. Aim: The aim of this review was to explore (a) the facilitators and barriers to accessing and using e-learning and (b) the impact of e-learning on HCPs’ learning their practices and organizational outcomes. Methodology: Primary research publications between 2013 and 2022 were obtained from the CINAHL MEDLINE OVID and EBSCO databases. A total of 39 articles were included in this integrative review which was guided by Whittemore and Knafl's framework. The MMAT was used to assess the quality of the included studies. Kirkpatrick's model guided data analysis. Findings: The reaction level is influenced by the characteristics of e-learning content and delivery as well as the motivation of individuals. The learning level is influenced by the level of awareness knowledge skills confidence attitudes and beliefs of HCPs. The behavior level is associated with intentions to change or apply in practice as well as implications for practice. The organizational impact is characterized by the quality of patient care. Conclusion: Understanding the potential facilitators and barriers to accessing and using e-learning is crucial when designing and implementing CPD to improve the quality of e-learning and therefore the quality of patient care.
The impact of job satisfaction on nurses’ work lives: A literature review
Many outcomes in nurses’ work lives are influenced by their job satisfaction. Background: One of the tools that measures nurses’ job satisfaction is the McCloskey/Mueller Job Satisfaction tool. Several databases were accessed to identify studies published after 2002 that measured nurses’ job satisfaction using the McCloskey/Mueller Job Satisfaction tool and identified an outcome related to work lives of nurses. Aim: The aim of this literature review was to explore the relationship between job satisfaction and outcomes related to nurses’ work lives. Methodology: The framework developed by Cronin Ryan and Coughlan was used for this review. Articles included in this review met the following criteria: studies that used the MMSS (McCloskey/Mueller Nurse Job Satisfaction Scale) tool articles that were written in English studies that focused on nurses and outcomes related to nurses’ work lives and articles that were published in peer-reviewed journals. The exclusion criteria included articles that were not from original research articles that were written before 2002 gray literature and studies that did not have ethical approval. The Johns Hopkins Nursing Evidence-Based Practice Tool was used to appraise each article’s quality. Results: Eighteen articles were chosen for inclusion in this review. Nurses’ job satisfaction had several key impacts on nurses’ work lives. Five themes that reflected the outcomes of nurses’ job satisfaction were identified: commitment to the workplace workplace environment emotional status career ladder and accountability. Conclusions: The findings show that workplace commitment workplace environment emotional status career ladder and accountability contribute to nurses’ job satisfaction. These factors need to be taken into account in developing interventions to increase nurses’ job satisfaction and their work output.
Factors influencing self-care management in adult hemodialysis patients: An integrative review
Background: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) poses a significant health challenge with hemodialysis (HD) being the most prevalent therapy. Patients undergoing HD must comply with a strict therapeutic regimen including dietary control fluid restriction and medication adherence. Successful disease management and improved outcomes rely on patients’ involvement and participation in their care.
Aim: To identify the factors that hinder or facilitate self-care management (SCM) in HD patients.
Methodology: This review followed Whittemore and Knafl’s integrative review framework. A comprehensive literature search of articles published between 2017 and 2022 was conducted in CINAHL Medline and PubMed using the keywords end-stage renal disease hemodialysis self-care management self-care and self-management. This search yielded 21 suitable articles for review.
Results: SCM is influenced by three main factors: facilitators barriers and outcomes. Facilitators of SCM include self-care management interventions patient knowledge socio-demographic factors family support healthcare professionals peer support and psychological factors. Barriers encompass psychological and physical conditions. Outcomes include both physiological and psychological aspects.
Conclusion: Understanding the factors influencing SCM in HD patients is vital for developing reliable and effective self-care strategies and interventions to enhance both physical and psychological outcomes.
