Impact of the Social Service Subject Within the Educational Program of the Nursing Degree
Abstract
In Mexico, social service in universities is a temporary and compulsory activity for students. The educational program of the degree in Nursing of the Coordinación Académica Región Altiplano of the Universidad Autónoma de San Luis Potosí (UASLP) incorporated the Social Service subject as a training and support space for students providing social service. The objective of this work was to show the impact of the subject in question on the training of students of the Nursing degree. It is a descriptive and transversal investigation. Four generations were analyzed, from 2015 to 2018, with 166 students, and the educational actions of the program were contrasted with the results of the General Nursing Exit Exam applied by the Centro Nacional para la Evaluación de la Educación Superior (Ceneval). In each of the generations, different educational strategies were incorporated from diagnostic tests to the students of the Social Service subject. Of the four generations under study, 2015 to 2018, results were obtained with a satisfactory testimony and with an outstanding testimony: 93.3 %, 73.3 %, 75.0 % and 84.3 %, respectively, figures above the national average of 2017, which was 53.2 %. By demonstrating, through a standardized test, the significant achievements in the evaluation of the four performances that are considered by Ceneval, namely, "Education and health promotion", "Comprehensive patient care", "Technique and procedures and "Management, administration and research", the positive impact that the Social Service subject has on the UASLP Nursing degree program has been demonstrated.
