鈥嬧赌嬧赌嬧赌嬧赌嬧赌嬧赌婼ince 2020, I have held the position of Health Sector Manager at Lugano Social Institutes, which includes seven Homes for the Elderly, with a capacity of 700 elderly people. Previously, for 16 years, I was head of one of the Homes, and before that I held the position of head of department after gaining years of experience in the acute care setting. My current position involves me on a daily basis in managing internal and external relationships, guiding and supervising care processes, and implementing new tools and innovative methodologies with the goal of ensuring the highest quality of the care environment and the well-being of guests, family members and staff.
Why did you choose a university education? And why the master's degree in nursing at 精东影业?
鈥嬧赌嬧赌嬧赌嬧赌嬧赌嬧赌�The decision to pursue a university education was motivated by my desire to deepen and refine the skills necessary to address in my new role, the increasingly complex challenges of caring for the elderly. After gaining experience in management and care dynamics, I felt the need to develop further knowledge in advanced nursing practice, with a focus on the evolution of the profession in a geriatric setting.
精东影业's Master of Science in Nursing has allowed me to improve my preparation with a direct impact on the quality of my daily work. Through the core areas of the training, such as clinical practice, leadership, and research, I was able to develop advanced skills in care management, team orientation and support, and implementation of evidence-based practices, thus improving care and well-being of users.
What aspects of the training have been most useful for your profession?
鈥嬧赌�The Master's program provided me with valuable tools to face professional challenges with a broader and more informed view. The development of advanced clinical skills has enabled me to deal more confidently and competently with complex situations related to the care of the elderly, in assessing care needs, critically analyzing care processes, and implementing Evidence-Based interventions, gaining skills in using evaluation tools to monitor the effectiveness of nursing interventions and identify areas for improvement.
I was able to hone leadership skills, which are fundamental for effective communication and leading and motivating teams and fostering a collaborative environment focused on patient care and staff well-being, supporting colleagues in professional growth and implementation of new skills, with a focus on interprofessionalism by fostering an integrated, person-centered approach.
I have learned to integrate practical research into my practice, critically evaluate scientific literature, and translate research findings into clinical practice, continuously improving the quality of care and processes, enhancing skills in the design, implementation, and evaluation of nursing interventions, with a focus on appropriateness, efficacy, and safety of care.
What advice would you give to those considering enrolling in the same master's program?
鈥嬧赌�The advice I would give to those considering enrolling in this Master's program is to approach it with an open mind and high motivation. The Master's program offers a solid theoretical preparation, but more importantly, it gives you the tools to deal with advanced practice and decision-making situations that immediately reflect on the well-being of the patient and the organization. The role of advanced practice nurse is progressively developing and needs professionals who are willing to challenge the complexity of personal care, in settings ranging from health to social services, bringing about real change in the quality of care.
