Abstract

The cases of Tuberculosis (TB) children in Indonesia increased in 2023 due to the impact of the new normal life. This increase was attributed to delayed immunization, poor nutrition, restrictions on activities, and disruptions to treatment services. The new normal life also affected the increasing number of TB children, in addition to certain ethnic beliefs and culture, causing a significant rise in hospitalized patients and deaths. Therefore, this study aims to explore the experience of pediatric nurses in caring for TB children from various ethnic groups during the new normal life. This study used a phenomenological method, consisting of 12 nurses working in a pediatric ward who were interviewed in an isolated room. The purposive sampling method was used to collect data through semi-structured and in-depth interviews. Data analysis was carried out using the 7-step Colaizzi method. The results showed that a total of 5 themes were identified, namely 1) nurses challenged by patients condition, 2) focus on safety care, 3) the influence of local culture in TB treatment, 4) differences in perceptions of TB between nurses as well as parents, and 5) understanding the perceptions of ethnic beliefs and culture of parents towards the disease. There are still challenges that pediatric nurses must overcome in providing care to patients in hospitals. The results could serve as initial data for developing guidelines or protocols incorporating a cultural competency method, thereby minimizing differences in the provision of nursing care for children with TB.

Abstract

Nursing care is a key component of quality healthcare services, ensuring patient satisfaction and meeting hospital needs. However, patient dissatisfaction could reduce the quality of nursing care, caused by low nurses' work motivation. Clinical supervision was a form of coaching that increased nurses' work motivation through formative, restorative, and normative functions. Therefore, this study aimed to identify clinical supervision and work motivation of nurses providing care in Regional General Hospital. A descriptive correlation design was adopted with a cross-sectional method. Data were collected through a survey of 98 impatient nurses selected using simple random sampling. The survey used questionnaires that measured clinical supervision and work motivation, and then bivariate test analysis was carried out with the Spearman rho test. The results showed a significant relationship between clinical supervision and nurses' work motivation (p < 0.05), with a strong relationship strength (r = 0.637). Furthermore, the highest clinical supervision and work motivation were formative and intrinsic, respectively. In conclusion, effective clinical supervision can increase nurses' work motivation during work and contribute to the quality of nursing care in the hospital. This study recommended the continuous implementation of clinical supervision by room managers on an ongoing basis. Strategies for developing clinical supervision for nurses are important to increase nurses' work motivation to have an effective impact on performance in hospital.

Abstract

Cancer in children presents a major global health problem, impacting not only the physical condition of pediatric patients but also causing significant psychological and social challenges for both the children and their families. Effective communication between nurses, children, and families is essential to ensure quality care, support psychosocial adaptation, and foster active involvement in decision-making. The study design used literature review. This literature review was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and CINAHL (EBSCO) databases, focusing on articles published from 2014 to 2025. The inclusion criteria were English-language articles discussing nurse communication with children aged 0-18 diagnosed with cancer, with nurses as the main communicators, and full-text availability. The findings indicate that nurses assume multifaceted roles not only as providers of medical information, but also as emotional supporters, advocates, and key facilitators in multidisciplinary healthcare teams. Communication approaches identified include tailoring information to the child’s developmental stage and cultural context, validating emotions, and employing active listening, open-ended questioning, and reflection. However, nurses face considerable barriers such as limited time, insufficient communication training, unclear professional roles, emotional burden, and systemic challenges within healthcare settings. Therefore, there is a need to improve communication training, enhance institutional support, and develop policies that encourage multidisciplinary collaboration and a work environment that supports effective communication. These efforts are expected to strengthen the role of nurses in providing holistic, adaptive, and family-centered care in the pediatric oncology setting.

Abstract

Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) is a core competency for nurses in hospital. However, several instances of infections caused by suboptimal nursing competencies in IPC are still observed, which can lead to patient safety issues. Nurse self-leadership is one way to enhance nursing competencies in IPC. This study aims to identify the relationship between self-leadership and nursing competencies in infection prevention and control in hospital. The research design used a descriptive correlation approach with a simple random sampling technique. The study was 98 nurses. This study was conducted using the Pearson correlation coefficient (r). The results of the study showed that nurse self-leadership was in the moderate category with a mean value of 3.06, and nursing competencies in infection prevention and control were also in the moderate category, with a mean value of 63.79. The study found a significant relationship between self-leadership and nursing competencies in infection prevention and control, with a r = 0.385, p-value 0.000 (< 0.05), indicating a weak relationship. The component of self-leadership that scored the highest was behavior-focused strategies. In conclusion, higher self-leadership among nurses is associated with better nursing competencies in IPC. It is recommended that ward managers develop the self-leadership skills and competencies of nurses in infection prevention and control through structured training programs. Improving self-leadership skills can enhance nursing competencies. Keyword: Hospital, Humans, Leadership, Patient Safety, Research Design
