Desenvolvendo uma metodologia para acompanhamento do egresso de enfermagem de uma Instituição de Ensino Superior

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to describe the development and implementation of an online graduate follow-up method to keep an updated database of the institution’s former students. It was a descriptive study of a population of nursing graduates from a higher education institution. This electronic instrument was available at the institution’s website, where the graduates provide their data in a survey. The pilot method with graduates from 2011 was used for method validation. In total, 53.65% answered the questionnaire in a first approach through email in a six-month period. The preliminary results confirm that the platform can be applied to the proposed objective. The graduate follow-up method allows access to assessment tools for institutions to evaluate the impact of graduation on healthcare services.
