Abstract
VELEZ-ALVAREZ, Consuelo et al. Training of human talent in nursing in Colombia. av.enferm. [online]. 2021, vol.39, n.2, pp.198-206. Epub Aug 18, 2021. ISSN 0121-4500. https://doi.org/10.15446/av.enferm.v39n2.90659.
Introduction:
The training of human talent in nursing requires the articulation with the health services institutions (IPS, in Spanish) as an essential feature.
Objective:
To analyze the teaching-service relationship for the training of human talent in nursing in Colombia.
Materials and methods:
Descriptive study using an electronic survey with structured and semi-structured questions sent to 53 higher education institutions (IES, in spanish). Institutions with nursing programs and teaching service agreements for training practices were included.
Results:
48 nursing programs from private (60.4 %) and public (39.6 %) IES participated in this study. 62.5 % of these did not have an IPS in charge of providing their own health services for the development of training practices. This situation leads to the structuring of teaching service agreements and payments in money or services by IES. The main forms of compensation were human resource training, continuing education, and technological endowment.
Conclusions:
The teaching-service integration of public and private universities with different institutions is necessary for the comprehensive training of nursing professionals. IES are forced to offer compensation activities according to their capacity and assessment of joint needs. A low percentage have their own IPS, whose majority are private institutions. The teaching-service relationship improves care, education, patient and family orientation and credibility due to the presence of the academy in health care units.
