Abstract

The aim of this quasi experimental research was to compare the ability of nursing students to use nursing processes after the implement of a PM-CARE model, based on cognitive apprenticeship. Participants were 30 nursing students from Boromarajonani College of Nursing in Chiang Mai in 2019. Experimental instruments was the PM-CARE Model. The collecting instruments was the evaluation form for the ability of nursing process. Reliability was tested by using Cronbach's alpha coefficient, yielding .892. Reliability of health assessment, nursing diagnosis, nursing care plan, nursing practice and evaluation was equal to .714, .716, .875, .900, .889, respectively. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-test. The qualitative data was verified using simple content analysis.  Results showed the following.

1. The ability to use nursing processes after implementing the PM-CARE Model was higher than before study (p<.001).

2. Most of the students were satisfied with the PM-CARE Model because it created a good interaction between students, instructors and nurses. Learning atmosphere made students working as a team. Even if the nursing process is stressful, they wanted to do it like nurses and instructors.

This research showed that the cognitive apprenticeship instruction could be used to improve nursing process’s ability.
