Description

We investigated what nursing professionals thought about patient coaching and how they practiced it in order to obtain basic data used to develop education programs to improve their ability to educate patients in the coaching process and tools to assess their education and coaching skills. Our investigation showed that they considered patient coaching to be important but did not give patients effective coaching. Especially, they failed to work with patients for effective coaching and to ensure prior coordination required for well-planned coaching. It became clear that in coaching, they tended greatly to educate patients with a focus on knowledge communication and had inadequate coaching planning. Those problems might be caused partly by failure to help such nursing practitioners develop sufficient expertise to educate patients including learning theories. From the above results, we conclude that fundamental knowledge on educational methodology and skills and basic principles of education need to be included in education programs for nursing practitioners in order to improve the ability of incumbent nursing professionals to educate patients in the coaching process.
