A tale of two nurses: Studying groupwork in nurse training by analyzing taskwork roles, social interactions, and self-efficacy
Published in 16th International Conference on Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning, 2023
Modern healthcare requires the coordination of a team of professionals with complementary skillsets. To help facilitate teamwork, healthcare professionals, such as nurses, undergo rigorous training of their clinical skills in team settings. In this paper, we analyze a mixed-reality, simulation-based training exercise involving three nurses in a hospital room. We perform multimodal interaction analysis to contrast strategies used in two cases where the patient expressed doubts about their medical care. By analyzing these strategies and comparing them to the student nurses’ self-reflections, we show connections among the nurses’ clinical roles, their self-efficacy, and their teamwork.
