Doctoral student in Health Care Sciences – Person-centred measurement of symptoms in children2022-08-08Fixed termPAR 2022/1008
Project: Being able to assess pain through an application can strengthen a child’s participation in their own care and give them a sense of control. The e-health tool Pictorial support in person-centred care for children (PicPecc) is a newly developed application to support children in managing their symptoms. Included in PicPecc is the electronic Faces Thermometer Scale (eFTS). The application PicPecc can enable a child to self-assess symptoms, which can lead to, for example, pain being identified and treated at an early stage. It is important to use validated pain assessment instruments and a person-centred approach for early identification and management of symptoms during the child’s illness trajectory.

Doctoral student in Health Care Sciences – University students’ preparation2022-08-11Fixed termPAR 2022/991
Project: The health science education programs aim to develop students’ theoretical, emotional and practical skills. Therefore, students at Sahlgrenska Academy are offered teaching at a clinical training centre (CTC) and clinical practice education (CPE). However, it is currently insufficiently studied how the educational programs can prepare students for practical elements and patient meetings during CTC and CPE. Furthermore, a lack of knowledge can increase the risk that students feel insecure and uncertain about the practical work during CPE. Therefore, knowledge is needed about which learning models can effectively prepare students. Objective: To explore whether peer learning and virtual patients promote student learning within the framework of practical education at the clinical training centre and whether peer learning and virtual patients increase students’ preparation for and during clinical practice education.
Doctoral student in Health Care Sciences – Person-centred learning2022-08-11Fixed termPAR 2022/1015
Project: Like all government agencies, universities must contribute to the development of society.

However, knowledge about person- centred care (PCC) is inadequately described in governing documents and knowledge and skills about PCC are unevenly distributed among teachers in higher education. Thus, this project wants to contribute with an increased knowledge about, and a practical guidance in how teachers could support students to develop competence in PCC. The objective is to co-create an educational module for PCC which aims to support teaching and learning of PCC in higher education.
