Nurse-Patient Relations

The hypothesis is that the current bedpan is not adapted to the diversity of patients encountered. It is necessary to collect the opinions of patients themselves on the current pool in different departments in order to validate our hypothesis. The objective is to evaluate pain in patients with reduced or very reduced mobility caused by the bedpan currently used in current practice through an observational study.

To determine the effect of motivational interviewing based on Pender's health promotion model on patient-reported outcomes in patients with COPD.

As in the whole world, there is an increase in the elderly population in the TRNC. However, no systematic care is provided for the registration and follow-up of elderly individuals. In this study, it is aimed to determine the health care needs of the elderly with a systematic method with the Omaha Classification System (OSS), which is used in the home care system in the world and in Turkey, and to examine the effectiveness of the nursing interventions applied according to the health care needs of the elderly people. With this method, it is thought that the continuity of monitoring and monitoring the health care needs of elderly individuals with a systematic approach will be ensured.

The overall objective of this observational study is to investigate practices of communication and decision-making during nurses' initial assessment of patients' health problems in primary care, examine working mechanisms in good practices and develop feasible solutions. The specific aims are: 1. To investigate patients' expectations and experiences with the communication and decision-making during their first contact with a registered nurse (RN) in primary care. 2. To investigate patient-RN communication on the level of patient involvement. 3. To investigate RNs' actual communication, assessments and decision-making, value conflicts and the challenges and strategies they use in prioritizing. 4. To analyse the underlying working mechanisms of good communication practices. 5. To develop methodologies for facilitating efficient processes in assessing, managing, and prioritizing patients in primary care for RNs. Project PINPOINT aims for a prospective multicenter study, using various methods for data collection and analysis.
