Conference Object Psychometrics of Flodén Attitudes Toward Organ Donor Advocacy Instrument in Turkish: a Scale Adaptation Study Among Intensive Care Unit Nurses(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2024) Floden, Anne Charlotte; Utku, Tughan; Kiraner, Ebru; Yayik, Aycan Kelez; Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci; Hemşirelik Bölümü[No Abstract Available]Conference Object A Review on Investigating the Effect of Consent Systems on Organ Donation Rates(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2024) Seren, Arzu Harmanci; Hemşirelik Bölümü[No Abstract Available]Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 21The Earthquakes in Turkey and Their Effects on Nursing and Community Health(Wiley, 2023) Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci; Dikec, Guel; Hemşirelik BölümüBackgroundSevere damage was experienced in 10 provinces in Turkey, and the north of Syria, with the earthquakes that hit Kahramanmaras at midnight and afternoon on February 6, 2023. AimThe authors aimed to give brief information to the international nursing community about the situation related to earthquakes in the aspects of nurses. ConclusionThese earthquakes caused traumatic processes in the affected regions. Many people, including nurses and other healthcare professionals, died or were injured. The results demonstrated that the required preparedness had not been applied. Nurses went to these areas voluntarily or on assignment and cared for individuals with injured. The universities in the country passed to distance education because of the shortage of safe places for victims. This situation also negatively influenced nursing education and clinical practice by interrupting in-person education one more time after the COVID-19 pandemic. Implications for nursing and nursing policySince the outcomes show a need for well-organized health and nursing care, policymakers may consider getting nurses' contributions to the disaster preparedness and management policy-making processes.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Nurse Unemployment in the Country Which Has Nursing Shortage: Investigation of the Reasons in the Aspect of Nurses(Informa UK Ltd, 2024) Soydaş, K.; Harmancı Seren, A.K.; Hemşirelik BölümüTurkey is the country which has serious nursing shortage.

Results: Point averages of the nurses between “Turnover Intention Scale” and “Compulsory Citizenship Behavior Scale” were 2.90 (SD=1.11) and 3.42 (SD=0.90) respectively. The correlation coefficient for the relationship between the intention to quit the job and compulsory citizenship behavior was found to be r=0.315 (p<0.001). Conclusion: It has been determined that nurses have the intention to leave the job below the medium level, they exhibit compulsory citizenship behavior at the above medium level, and there is a positive, medium strength and very significant linear relationship between the intention to leave the job and the compulsory citizenship behaviour. © 2024 The Authors.Article Investigating Nurses and Nurse Managers Experiences During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Phenomenological Study(2024) Bacaksız, Feride Eşkin; Seren, Arzu Kader Harmancı; Güngör, Serkan; Bilgin, Osman; Baykal, Ülkü; Alan, Handan; Hemşirelik BölümüGiriş: Türkiye, ‹1.000 kişiye düşen hemşire sayısı› açısından OECD ülkeleri arasında sonuncuya yakın sırada yer almaktadır. Hemşireler ve hemşire yöneticiler zaten pandemi öncesi normal dönemlerde zor şartlar altında özveriyle hizmet veriyorlardı ve bu pandemi döneminde daha da zorlaştı. Bu nedenle hemşirelerin ve hemşire yöneticilerin pandemi sürecindeki deneyimlerinin araştırılması gelecekteki olası pandemilere karşı hemşirelik bakımında iyileştirme yapılması açısından önemlidir. Amaç: Bu çalışma, hemşirelerin ve hemşire yöneticilerin COVID-19 pandemisi sırasındaki deneyimlerini araştırmayı amaçlamıştır. Yöntem: Araştırmada fenomenolojik nitel yaklaşım kullanılmıştır. Örneklemi, COVID-19 pandemisi sırasında çalışan 14 yönetici hemşire ve 14 hemşire oluşturmuştur. Veriler, yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılarak sesli ve görüntülü görüşme yapılarak çevrimiçi olarak toplanmıştır. Bulgular, nitel araştırmaları raporlamak için birleştirilmiş kriterlere dayalı olarak rapor edilmiştir. Bulgular: Verilerin analizinin ardından, Türkiye’deki hemşire yönetici ve hemşirelerin COVID-19 zorluklarına ve deneyimlerine yönelik tutumları üç temaya ayrılmıştır: “İletişim ve İş birliği”, “Eğitim/Gelişim” ve “Çalışma Koşulları/Çevre”. Sonuç: Araştırma, hemşire yöneticilerin iletişimi kolaylaştırmak, hemşirelerin eğitim ve gelişim ihtiyaçlarını karşılamak ve personel hemşirelerin çalışma koşullarını iyileştirmek için büyük çaba sarf ettiği sonucuna varmıştır. Araştırma ayrıca, hemşire yöneticilerin hassas ve samimi yaklaşımlarının hemşirelerin dayanıklılığını artırdığını buldu. Hemşire yöneticilerin yönetim becerileri ve hemşirelerin pandemi sürecindeki deneyimleri, gelecekte ortaya çıkabilecek pandemi ve benzeri afetler in etkili bir şekilde yönetilmesi için değerli bilgiler ve kanıtlar sunmaktadır.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6A Cross-Sectional Survey Study on Homophobia Among Medical, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Other Health Sciences Students(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci; Bacaksiz, Feride Eskin; Cakir, Hanife; Yilmaz, Sevil; Sukut, Ozge; Turan, Suzan; Maghsoudi, Nurten; Hemşirelik BölümüSince the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) community may be exposed to violence, discrimination, stigma, exclusion, and maltreatment due to their sexual orientation while accessing healthcare services, understanding, and improving the attitudes of future's health care professionals toward LGBTI individuals seem essential. This descriptive and cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the homophobia among medical, nursing, pharmacy, and healthcare sciences students and examine the related factors. The study included 2,531 students from medicine, nursing, pharmacy, and other health sciences (midwifery, nutrition and dietetics, physiotherapy, management of healthcare facilities) disciplines. Homophobia was measured with the Hudson and Ricketts Homophobia Scale. After getting ethical and institutional approvals, data were collected and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tests. Medical students had the lowest homophobia score, and their mean score was significantly lower than other students. There was a significant difference between students' scores according to years of study, age, sex, acquaintance with LGBTI individuals, providing healthcare services to an LGBTI person, and opinions on providing care. Although homophobia scores of nursing, pharmacy, and other health sciences students were lower than the medical students', policies and expansive content regarding LGBTI should be in place in all health science educational institutes, including medical schools, to prevent students from holding homophobic and prejudicial attitudes against LGBTI individuals.Erratum Corrigendum to “on Clinical Nurses’ Views About Diversities- A Qualitative Study”(Elsevier Ltd, 2025) Cakir, H.; Harmanci Seren, A.K.; Hemşirelik BölümüIn the original published version of this article, there were unwanted reference links in 2.3. Sample and setting and new references [1], [2] and [3] has been added in the revised version removing the older reference [1]. The original manuscript showed the Introduction, 2.3. Sample and setting and reference [1] as below: Until the beginning of the 20. century, nearly all civilized societies were controlled by upper-class white men. As a result, diverse people from the leading culture were marginalized based on ethnicity, race, religion, language, sex, or sexual orientation. The “Diversity management" concept first emerged in the United States of America (USA) to manage personal and cultural differences among employees. Later, globalization became a worldwide concept parallel with the internationalization of businesses, employees, and clients [1]. Snowball sampling was applied. Inclusion criteria were working in a hospital in Istanbul for at least one year [1], three years or more of professional experience [2], bachelor's or upper degrees in nursing education [3] and working as a staff or a manager nurse [4].
