description | INTRODUCTION: This study was conducted to evaluate the academic staff teaching the 'Nursing Management' course and to assess the current content of the course in the undergraduate nursing programs of the state universities in Turkey. METHODS: Design of the study is descriptive. Population of the study consists of seventy-eight undergraduate nursing programs in the state universities in Turkey. The questionnaire prepared by the researchers was used as a data collection tool. The data were obtained by screening the content of the websites of nursing education programs between March and May 2016. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. RESULTS: Data obtained from research indicated that 58% of nursing undergraduate programs are conducted within the school of health, 81.1% of the responsible academic staff of nursing management course graduated from the undergraduate nursing programs, 40.7% of them worked as a lecturer and 37.3% of them specialized in a non-nursing area. It was determined that 94.8% of the programs examined in the study had a course in management field in nursing. The full name of the course was 'Nursing Management' in 91% of the programs and the course was mandatory in 87.2% of the programs. Theory and clinical practice hours of the course were 3.13 and 2.91, respectively. In addition, 34.6% of the examined programs were found not to share the content of the nursing management course on the web page. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that the expertise of the academic staff teaching the 'Nursing Management' course was not sufficient in the nursing management area, the schedule and content of the course were not sufficient although many nursing education programs provided the course. When the curriculum contents of the management course in nursing on the web pages of the universities are compared, it is seen that there are significant differences. |
