Abstract
Background: The educational need for enhancing innovative skills perceived by nursing students has been integrated into the nursing innovation course in the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) curriculum, and should improve competencies for nurses in the future.
Objectives: To explore the current and desired state of innovative skills and to identify the educational needs for enhancing innovative skills of nursing students in Phraboromarajchanok Institute (PBRI).
Methods: This is descriptive research. The stratified random sampling technique was used to select four nursing colleges and 380 junior and senior year nursing students enrolling in the academic year 2020 were recruited. The 49-item innovative skills need assessment questionnaire was used to collect data. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze data. In addition, the Modified Priority Needs Index (PNIModified) was used to identify the priority needs of innovative skills.
Results: The overall mean scores of current and desired innovative skills were 3.86 (SD = .51) and 4.26 (SD = .74), respectively. The overall PNIModified was 0.10. The needs of innovative skills were ranked in descending order of the PNIModified as innovation discovery skills (PNIModified = 0.13), innovation deployment skills (PNIModified = 0.10), innovation design skills (PNIModified = 0.09), innovation development skills (PNIModified = 0.08), and innovation definement skills (PNIModified = 0.06). Innovation discovery sub-skills items were rated as the top three highest needs.
Conclusions: Innovative competencies could be the most critical competencies for nurses in the future. Therefore, nursing instructors should design courses and curricula to enhance the innovative competencies of nursing students.
