EBN Podcast

Complex clinical challenges faced by nurses and midwives need complex solutions that require an understanding of how different individuals experience and make sense of a shared situation or scenario. In this podcast, we delve into the use of a particular research approach called Phenomenography; a qualitative approach that aims to uncover the nuances of the similarities and differences of groups of people with a shared experience. Deputy editor of EBN, Professor Lisa Kidd, interviews Dr Kaye Rolls, Lecturer in Nursing at the University of Wollongong, Australia.
