Free Webinar for IFNA Members!

Sandra K. Eggenberger, PhD, RN
Director Glen Taylor Nursing Institute for Family and Society
Professor School of Nursing
Minnesota State University, Mankato

Sonja J. Meiers PhD, RN
Professor and Director of Graduate Programs in Nursing
Winona State University-Rochester

Description

Presenters in this seminar will guide participants through strategies to gain a collective family perspective. In addition, presenters will articulate how family researchers can design and implement family intervention and practice translation studies that use the collective family perspective to improve nursing practice and outcomes. Research-supported strategies that assist participants in planning quantitative and qualitative studies will be shared. Consideration will be given to strategies for ensuring alignment across study aims, conceptual underpinnings, and interview approach and questions. Unique challenges and benefits of conducting collective family research interviews for data collection and family intervention interviews will be addressed.

Educational Outcomes/Objectives:

1. Discuss strategies for ensuring alignment across study aims, conceptual underpinnings, and interview approach and questions.
2. Present an overview of the range of approaches for accessing the collective family perspective.
3. Examine the unique challenges and benefits of conducting collective family research interviews and collective family intervention interviews.
4. Review methods for ensuring rigor in collective family research interviews.
5. Propose guidelines for maintaining collective family intervention fidelity.

Target Audience

This program is particularly relevant for registered nurses, advanced practice nurses, interprofessional groups, research assistants, and graduate students interested in family research.

Registration is FREE for IFNA Members!

Registration is $25.00 for non-members.

State of the Science of Family Interviewing:
Through the Eyes of the Individual

Presented by:

Kathy Knafl PhD, FAAN
Frances Hill Fox Distinguished Professor
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Marcia Van Riper PhD, FAAN
Professor and Chair of Family Health Division
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

IFNA Members FREE / Non-Members $25.00

Description

This webinar is an opportunity for participants to expand their research skill-set. Much of family research entails interviewing individual family members. There are unique challenges to conducting health-related family interviews (e.g., addressing sensitive issues, being queried for information) that are not typically addressed in general research methods texts. The seminar will address these.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Present an overview of the range of structures and approaches for conducting individual family interviews.
2. Discuss strategies for ensuring alignment across study aims, conceptual underpinnings, and interview approach and questions.
3. Examine the unique challenges of conducting individual family research interviews.
4. Provide guidelines for conducting individual family research interviews in cross-cultural studies.

Target Audience

This program is particularly relevant for nurses interested in family research.

Presented by Colleen Royle, EdD, MSN, RN

Colleen has seven years of research and education expertise in simulation and serves as the Learning Resource Laboratory & Simulation Coordinator at the School of Nursing, Minnesota State University (MSU) in Mankato, Minnesota, USA.  Colleen and her MSU colleagues presented a pre- and post-conference at the 11th International Family Nursing Conference in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 2013 that focused on family nursing and simulation education. In 2015, at the 12th International Family Nursing in Odense, Denmark, Colleen and her colleagues offered a pre-conference where they shared innovative simulation technology dedicated to family nursing practice.
Colleen was recently chosen as one of the twenty individuals to participate in the 2016 National League for Nursing Leadership Development Program for Simulation Educators.  This year long program is designed for experienced simulation nurse educators who wish to assume a leadership role in simulation. Her research interests include: measuring the student preference of oral versus video-assisted debriefing, incorporating the process of family nursing into each simulation, and evaluating the teaching-learning experience for students and faculty.  Colleen currently serves as a member of the IFNA Education Committee.

Program / Event Description:

This webinar will share simulation teaching strategies that guide students to apply family nursing knowledge while providing family-focused nursing actions. Research findings suggest that nursing practice in many health care settings does not fully attend to the family as a focus for care and nurses report concerns with their ability to provide family nursing practice. Simulation provides an innovative and  safe learning environment where students and nurses have the opportunity to practice family-nurse relationships, implement family-focused nursing actions, and learn family communication skills. This webinar is presented by Dr. Colleen Royle, Assistant Professor at The School of Nursing, Minnesota State University, Mankato, USA.  The School of Nursing at Minnesota State University, Mankato, prepares nurses who understand the significance of family and society in health care. The family-focused curriculum and simulation experiences in the bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral programs aim help students provide quality care to individuals, families and communities in all settings.

The two learning outcomes are: 

1. Describe how the complexities of nurse-family communication and nursing care of families in health care delivery systems can be taught using simulation strategies.
2. Describe specific elements of simulation learning experiences that can guide nursing students to gain confidence and competence in caring for families.
