dc.description.abstractBACKGROUND : Reflection is recognised as an important method for practice development. The importance of reflection is well documented in the literature, but the requirements for reflection remain unclear. OBJECTIVES : To explore and describe the requirements for reflection in the critical care environment as viewed by educators of qualified critical care nurses. METHOD : A focus group interview was conducted to explore and describe the views of educators of qualified critical care nurses regarding requirements for reflection in the critical care environment. RESULTS : The themes that emerged from the focus group were buy-in from stakeholders – management, facilitators and critical care nurses, and the need to create an environment where reflection can occur. CONCLUSION : Critical care nurses should be allowed time to reflect on their practice and be supported by peers as well as a facilitator in a non-intimidating way to promote emancipatory practice development.en_ZA
