2. 2.05pm – ‘PGR Presents: Factors that influence nurses’ approach to medication administration safety in a critical care environment in Palestinian hospitals'
(20 mins plus Q&A 10 mins)
With Rasmia Anabtawi, 2nd Year PhD Candidate in Nursing, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Hull.
Abstract:
Critical care units are different from other hospital wards in that they require highly skilled healthcare providers who can work in a complex environment, and also require the use of advanced technologies to promote safety.
The main aim of this study is to explore the critical care environment and the factors that influence nurses’ approach towards medication administration safety in critical care units in Palestinian hospitals, this, in turn, will help in explaining how the critical care environment can be managed and maintained to ensure the safety of medication administration from the perspective of critical care nurses.
A qualitative research method, utilizing grounded theory techniques will be used in this study to explore the factors that influence nurses’ approach towards medication administration safety in critical care units. In order to achieve this purpose, an in-depth interview for collecting data from nurses will be used. The qualitative study design is the better method for this study to understand the factors that influence nurses’ approach to medication administration safety in a critical care environment in Palestinian hospitals. This study will address the question “What are the factors influencing the safety of medication administration in a critical care environment?”
3. 2.35pm - 'Perspectives On: Failurism - The apt adapts - all ways lead to Rome!'
(15 mins plus Q&A 5 mins).
With Dr Pedro Beltran Alvarez, Lecturer and PGR Tutor, Department of Biomedical Sciences, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Hull.
Failurism or “Failureship is being open to the learnings of failure, trying something new and uncharted, not being afraid to fail, doing it openly and inviting others to join you in the journey …. and understanding the value in the journey.” Davina Whitnall & Dr Ursula Hurley, The University of Salford, UKCGE 2nd International Mental Health and Wellbeing Conference Abstract, May 2021.
Failure is something we all face in everyday life, small failures, large failures, we all face them. It is how we deal with them and what we learn from them that really matters. Pedro will talk about why failures are absolutely necessary to succeed.
4. 2.55pm - 'Perspectives on: The PhD and beyond’
(20 mins plus Q&A 10 mins).

My educational background is a Bachelors degree in nursing, and I have a Masters degree in educational administration.
I have different background experience, I have critical care experience for more than ten years at Al-Makessed Hospital in Jerusalem, and I have one year of being an acting head nurse for the critical care unit.
Then I have the opportunity to be a nursing director in two private hospitals in Nablus, throughout I practiced several roles in these hospitals such as being a member of the infection control committee, continuous education, in addition, I have conducted critical care courses for nurses working in the intensive care.
In 2009 I have moved from clinical practice to academic experience, I was the coordinator for the nursing department in Allied Medical Sciences College at Arab American University in Palestine, I have been in this position for three years, besides, I have to be a lecturer for many nursing courses for the undergraduate students.
Research theme for this seminar: Book onto the seminar now!This seminar will showcase the research of the Faculty's "Alcohol and drug research " theme; sharing the impact of the research and demonstrating how it is addressing national health priorities. The seminar will also highlight key learning points and research/study tips from both speakers.
Rachel commenced her PhD research in September 2020 when she was awarded a Fellowship from the Society for the Study of Addiction. Her PhD topic is measurement and management of alcohol withdrawal in the acute general hospital setting'. Rachel will talk about her research, what her research focusses on, the context of her research/how it fits in with the work of the research institute. Rachel will also share her experience of working as a research assistant prior to commencing her studies here. If she has time she will also share some tops tips, leading scholars, resources, books, websites, software packages etc., that she has discovered on her research journey so far.
Professor Phillips will talk about his ground breaking and impactful research. He will outline his research career to date, identifying the current national priorities and how his teams research is addressing several of these. His talk will also highlight the potential impact of his research team's ‘lab’, where there are a number of PGR researchers conducting related research. Like Rachel, Tom will also highlight learning points and tips that might be relevant to PGRs at the seminar.
View Tom's impressive publications record here.
PGRs can also raise group/individual issues, discussions around health and wellbeing and any other issues. Email them to us in advance if you like!
