Abstract:
Nursing as a caring profession is constantly evolving as the call for international Healthcare demands are consequently in progress. The study aimed to determine how professional nurses are keeping up with Outcomes-Based Education trends in nursing education and practice. The study employed Exploratory Sequential Mixed Methods Design comprising of five phases namely: 1) Integrative Literature Review; 2) PICO: Writing the Integrative Review; 3) Tool Develop-ment and Testing – Quantitative; 4) Framework Development; 5) Functionality Evaluation from Expert Interviews – Qualitative. Emer-gent themes based on reviewed related literature were: 1) Core of Nursing; 2) Quality Patient Care; 3) Professional Transfiguration; 4) Excellence in Health Care. J.O.R.-O.B.E. Measurement Tool was devel-oped and pilot-tested with 0.80 to 0.92 acceptability level. Respond-ents were selected by purposive sampling. Results revealed that professional nurses who graduated under OBE curriculum were very satisfactorily keeping up with overall mean of 4.32, with a provision on research engagement and community-based staff development pro-grams. Utilizing T-test statistical tool, data shown insignificant differ-ences in the average performance of nurses as perceived by charge nurses, head nurses, nurse supervisors and staff nurses with a p-value of 0.368. Moreover, the developed J.O.R.-O.B.E. framework was evaluated by the chief nurses as an Excellent, Effective, and Highly Recommended. The findings of the study shed significant implications towards nursing profession. Utilization of J.O.R.-O.B.E. Measurement Tool and J.O.R.-O.B.E. Framework can serve to support the nursing workforce, for institutions to achieve excellent health care and cope up with global demands.
