Abstract:

Objective To investigate the demand of specialty nurses in China for retraining，and to provide references for the continuous development of specialty nurses. Methods A convenient sampling method was used to survey specialty nurses from all 31 provinces in May-June 2023. A self-designed questionnaire was used as an electronic questionnaire. Results A total of 61，562 valid questionnaires were collected，with 70.0% of specialty nurses believing that it is “very necessary” or “necessary” to carry out retraining for specialty nurses，and 68.4% being “very willing” or “willing” to participate in further training；64.6% chose a five-year cycle for retraining；and 66.5% chose online learning as their preferred mode of learning. In terms of content and evaluation methods for retraining，the top 3 in the retraining content were specialized knowledge（88.9%），clinical practice（74.3%），and nursing research（59.5%）. The top 3 in retraining evaluation were specialized knowledge（87.5%），clinical practice ability（72.2%），and teaching guidance ability（44.3%）.
