Abstract Background Clinical competence development is a main goal of specialized nursing courses. Nonetheless, some master’s graduates of gerontological nursing programs have inadequate Clinical competence. The aim of this study was to explore the barriers and the facilitators to clinical competence development among the master’s graduates of gerontological nursing. Method This qualitative descriptive study was conducted in 2020. Participants were twenty nursing master’s students, master’s graduates, and instructors of gerontological nursing. They were purposively selected from several faculties of nursing and midwifery in Tehran, Isfahan, and Kashan, Iran. Semi-structured interviews were held for data collection and the conventional content analysis proposed by Graneheim and Lundman was used for data analysis. Data were managed using the MAXQDA 10 software. Results The main barriers to clinical competence development were students’ neglectfulness towards learning, inefficiency of educational system, and ineffective management. The main facilitators to clinical competence development were effective educational planning and management improvement. Conclusion There are different personal, educational, and managerial barriers and facilitators to clinical competence development among master’s graduates of gerontological nursing. Effective educational planning and management improvement are needed for clinical competence development among master’s students and graduates of gerontological nursing. |
