Abstract
Purpose: This study evaluated the learning achievement of baccalaureate nursing students in the seminar program for Home Health Care Nursing Education using a student questionnaire. The questionnaire contents included level of learning achievement, level of understanding of the lecture, level of usefulness of seminar program, and level of visualization of the actual care system. Method: The participants of the survey were 45 third year nursing students of A University before and after the seminar program for examination. Results: Students said that level of usefulness of the seminar program was better after the completion of seminar program compared to before the start of the seminar program. The results showed there were positive correlations among the level of understanding of the lecture, level of usefulness of seminar program, and level of visualization of the actual care system. Also, there was a positive correlation of communication with the level of visualization of the actual care system. Conclusion: The seminar program is useful for students before the practicum of home health care nursing. In addition, there was a considerable correlation between the level of visualization of the actual care system and communication practicum. Therefore it is important to ensure a high level of communication practicum to increase visualization.
