A Collaborative Healthcare Training Program for general practice nurses: Implementation and evaluation.

This study aims to examine the implementation and effectiveness of a collaborative training program for general nurses in general hospitals and evaluate its impact on nurses' overall competencies and career development. A total of 102 general nurses were enrolled in the study. The control group (n = 51) received conventional teaching, while the observation group (n = 51) was trained through a blended model integrating online instruction with offline scenario-based exercises. After 6 months of training, both groups were evaluated using the modified direct observation of procedural skills and the objective structured clinical examination. Training satisfaction was assessed, and the Perceived Professional Benefits Scale and the Psychological Capital Scale were applied to measure professional and psychological outcomes. The observation group achieved significantly higher direct observation of procedural skills scores compared with the control group (P < .05). The proportion of high-performing nurses in the observation group [39.22% (20/51)] was markedly greater than that in the control group [11.76% (6/51)] (P < .05). Both teacher satisfaction and nurse satisfaction were significantly higher in the observation group (P < .05). In addition, the observation group demonstrated superior scores on the Perceived Professional Benefits Scale and the Psychological Capital Scale compared with the control group (P < .05). This study provides robust evidence that collaborative training programs can enhance clinical competence, professional perception, and psychological capital among general nurses in general hospitals. The findings offer practical guidance for further optimization and broader implementation of such training models.
