Objective
Evidence-based practices (EBPs) have been taught to students by identifying the best evidence/evidence from research results. However, the experiences of Indonesian nurse preceptors in helping students implement research findings have not been explored thoroughly. This study aimed to explore Indonesian nurse preceptors in guiding nursing students to use research findings.
Methods
This study used interpretive phenomenology analysis that involves 9 nurse preceptors from hospitals in West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were recorded and then transcribed verbatim.
Results
Three themes were generated during the analysis: “types of student supervision,” “issues during supervision,” and “the need for research literacy and supervision.”
Conclusions
Nurse preceptors need support to supervise the nursing students to use research findings. In addition to upgrading nursing skills, nurse preceptors must receive training in research and its utilization. Developing an appropriate strategy to assist students in using research findings will enhance the promotion of evidence-based nursing practices on a daily basis.
