Sammanfattning
There is a need of nurses with special training in paediatric care. A one-year traineeprogram was therefore established at a university hospital
in Western Sweden in order to offer extended knowledge and practical training in paediatric care to newly graduate nurses. Nineteen nurses
were accepted to join the traineeprogram, which was conducted using the techniques of problem based learning during the theoretical as well as
the practical part. The program was evaluated by questioning the nurses of their objective of joining the program, how this was fulfilled, gained
insight and professional development by the use of a semi-structured questionnaire. The result showed that the nurses experienced a professional
development regarding essential theoretical knowledge in paediatric care consolidated in practical medical and caring skills. In addition the
traineeprogram facilitated their social adaptation to hospital routines, supported their self-confidence, independence, and their professional role
in the team.
