Title: The evaluation of addiction prevention curriculum for primary care nurses

Abstract:

The review of literature reveals that nurses lack the necessary knowledge and skills to educate patients who are harmful or risk drinkers, but do not fulfill the criteria of alcohol addiction, as well as nicotine dependent patients, especially behaviorally addicted in the second phase prevention. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the education programme for primary care nurses on alcohol and nicotine prevention. The authorship educational programme was based on the American programme SAEFP and SAEP. The quasi-experimental "pretest-posttest" and "delayed posttest" design was used for the evaluation. The evaluation procedure included: evaluation of the process, results and its influence. The research was conducted in 2002-2004. 256 nurses took part in the pretest. 205 nurses (80% of the total group) took part in the delayed posttest. The following research instruments were used: questionnaire of auditorial and mail inquiry, scale of competence, interests and responsibility, scale of attitudes to alcohol and nicotine addiction prevention, scale of evaluation of the education process, test of knowledge, The Scale of Emotional Empathy by A. Mehrabian and N. Epstein, the Scale of General Self-Efficacy by R. Schwarzer, M.Jerusalem. The evaluation results indicate some essential changes in knowledge and competence in the sphere of nicotine and ; alcohol addiction prevention, in the interest in the early diagnosis and short intervention, in abilities and responsibility for the implementation of short antinicotine intervention and in the level of efficacy and empathy among nurses. Weaker feedback on the curriculum referred to nurses' attitudes to nicotine and alcohol addiction prevention, practical obeying the , rules of transtheoretical model of health education, responsibility for the implementation of short antyalcohol intervention and using it in screening tests and the selected methods of cognitivebehavioral changes of behaviour. The findings demonstrate that the education of primary care nurses in the sphere of nicotine and alcohol addiction, especially bascd on the· authorship curriculum turned out to be more eff ective and should be recommended as a model to be used in the oost-graduate nursing studies.
