The ongoing new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, which arose at the end of 2019, poses a severe challenge to world public health systems. Frontline medical staffs bear a great burden to provide health care services. The Taiwan government has taken rapid and decisive actions to reduce the risk of community transmission and campus cluster infection. Nursing education includes both classroom teaching and clinical practicum components. In preparing for their practicum, students must learn not only fundamental nursing care knowledge but also basic knowledge on emerging infectious diseases. All schools nationwide have complied with the Ministry of Education order to postpone the opening of the fall semester in response to the rapid evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic. Campus epidemic prevention measures were implemented through student counseling networks, and flexible teaching strategies, including online teaching and distance teaching, were implemented to protect the learning rights of students. This paper explores the strategies implemented in response to emerging infectious diseases in nursing education based on the core values of professional nursing. Examining the precautions taken at campuses and teaching strategies adopted in response to the COVID 19 pandemic may provide valuable insights that may be applied to the future development of nursing education.
Title: 護理教育於新型冠狀病毒肺炎疫情的因應策略.
新型冠狀病毒肺炎疫情於2019年底爆發，全球面臨公共衛生傳染病最嚴峻的考驗，第一線醫護人員首當其衝。臺灣政府面對疫情的處理迅速且果斷，有效地減少社區傳播，並降低校園群聚感染的風險。護理教育的場域包含課室教學與臨床實習，在面對新興傳染疾病的傳播時，學生除應具備基礎護理學的理論知識之外，在臨床實習時，更需具備基本的感染管制知能，確實遵守無菌技術及觀念，才能在臨床照護的實踐過程中，保護自身健康安全。因應疫情的迅速變化，各級學校配合教育部的政策，於第一時間延後開學日程，提前啟動校園防疫的各項措施並規劃完善的學生關懷網路。在教學上，各學校也積極推廣遠距教學等彈性授課方式，維護學生的學習權益。本文由護理教育核心價值，探討護理教育於新興傳染病之察覺與因應策略。同時，檢視學校在面對此次疫情時於措施管理、學生關懷及遠距教學上的因應策略，期能提供未來的省思。.
