Registered Nurses’ Patient Education in Everyday Primary Care Practice: : Managers Discourses

Nurses’ patient education is important for building patients’ knowledge, understanding, and preparedness for self-management.The aim of this study was to explore the conditions for nurses’ patient education work by focusing on managers’ discoursesabout patient education provided by nurses. In 2012, data were derived from three focus group interviews with primary caremanagers. Critical discourse analysis was used to analyze the transcribed interviews. The discursive practice comprised adiscourse order of economic, medical, organizational, and didactic discourses. The economic discourse was the predominantone to which the organization had to adjust. The medical discourse was self-evident and unquestioned. Managers reorganizedpatient education routines and structures, generally due to economic constraints. Nurses’ pedagogical competencedevelopment was unclear, and practice-based experiences of patient education were considered very important, whereastheoretical pedagogical knowledge was considered less important. Managers’ support for nurses’ practical- and theoreticalbasedpedagogical competence development needs to be strengthened.
