Detailed description

This study evaluated the effects of peer education on urinary catheterization on students' skill levels, privacy awareness, anxiety, and satisfaction. It was found that peer education increased students' urinary catheterization skills and privacy awareness, reduced anxiety levels, and enhanced satisfaction levels. Based on these results, it was suggested that using peer education in the teaching of other nursing practices could also increase nursing students' privacy awareness, reduce anxiety levels, and improve satisfaction levels. This educational method, particularly in a critically important nursing practice course, was expected to enhance students' knowledge and skills and improve learning retention. Furthermore, peer education made learning more enjoyable, which was anticipated to increase student engagement, motivation, and satisfaction. This study revealed a significant difference in how nursing students, and future nurses, interacted with patients and their families. This difference contributed to improved quality of patient care and positively affected patient and family satisfaction. Additionally, receiving positive feedback after nursing practices carried out with confidentiality awareness was found to increase employee satisfaction.
