Abstract
The shortage of personal protective equipment and lack of proper nursing training have been endangering health care workers dealing with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In our treatment center, the implementation of a holistic care model of time-sharing management for severe and critical COVID-19 patients has further aggravated the shortage of intensive care unit (ICU) professional nurses. Therefore, we developed a short-term specialized and targeted nursing training program to help ICU nurses to cope with stress and become more efficient, thus reducing the number of nurses required in the ICU. In order to avoid possible human-to-human spread, small teaching classes and remote training were applied. The procedural training mode included four steps: preparation, plan, implementation, and evaluation. An evaluation was conducted throughout the process of nursing training. In this study, we documented and shared experiences in transitioning from traditional face-to-face programs to remote combined with proceduralization nursing training mode from our daily work experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has shown to be helpful for nurses working in the ICU.
Core Tip: The rapid spread of the epidemic and surge of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients have put the health care system under tremendous pressure, and even on the verge of collapse. The implementation of a holistic care model of time-sharing management for severe and critical COVID-19 patients has further aggravated the shortage of intensive care unit (ICU) professional nurses. We tried to document the shared experiences in transitioning traditional face-to-face programs to remote combined with proceduralization nursing training mode during the COVID-19 pandemic, which was shown to be helpful for nurses to adapt to ICU work quickly and make up for the shortage of ICU professional nurses.
