Amaç: Hemşirelerin topluma daha iyi sağlık hizmeti verebilmesi için kabul edilebilir düzeyde e-sağlık okuryazarlığına sahip olmaları gerekmektedir. Hemşirelik öğrencilerinin eğitimleri süresince güvenilir ve geçerli sağlık bilgilerini edinmeleri gelecekte çalışma yaşamlarına hazırlamalarına yardımcı olacaktır. Bu çalışma, e-sağlık okuryazarlığı eğitiminin hemşirelik öğrencilerinin e-sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeyine etkisini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Tek gruplu ön test-son test desenli yarı deneysel çalışma, 13 Aralık 2023-10 Ocak 2024 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmanın örneklemini 66 hemşirelik öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Çalışmanın verileri ''Kişisel Bilgi Formu'' ve ''E-sağlık Okuryazarlığı Ölçeği'' kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin yaş ortalaması 19,06±1,06 olup, %83,2'si kadındır. Öğrencilerin %27,3'ü interneti 5 saat ve daha uzun süre kullanmakta ve % 89,4'ü internette sağlıkla ilgili bilgi araştırmaktadır. Eğitim öncesinde 26,25±3,92 olan e-sağlık ölçeği puan otalaması, eğitim sonrasında 32,65±3,04'e yükselmiştir. Eğitim öncesi ve sonrası puan ortalaması farkları istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur (t=-12,308, p<0,001). Sonuç: Bu çalışmada, uygulanan e-sağlık okuryazarlığı eğitim programının hemşirelik öğrencilerinin e- sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeyini geliştirdiği belirlenmiştir. Bu sonuç doğrultusunda; hemşirelik öğrencilerinin e-sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeyini geliştirmek için benzer programların hemşirelik müfredatına entegre edilmesi önerilebilir. Bu programlar aracılığıyla hemşire eğitimciler, öğrencilerin güvenilir sağlık kaynaklarını eleştirel bir şekilde değerlendirmeleri için stratejiler uygulayabilir.

Objective: Nurses should have an acceptable level of e-health literacy in order to provide better health services to the society. The acquisition of reliable and valid health information by nursing students during their education will help them prepare for their future working life. This study was conducted to determine the effect of e-health literacy training on the e-health literacy level of nursing students. Material and Methods: The quasi-experimental study with a one-group pretest-posttest design was conducted between December 13, 2023-January 10, 2024. The sample of the study consisted of 66 nursing students. The data of the study were collected using the ''Personal Information Form'' and ''E-health Literacy Scale''. Results: The mean age of the students was 19.06±1.06 years and 83.2% were female. 27.3% of the students used the Internet for 5 hours or more and 89.4% of them searched for health-related information on the Internet. The mean score of the e-health scale, which was 26.25±3.92 before the training, increased to 32.65±3.04 after the training. The difference between the mean scores before and after the training was statistically significant (t=-12.308, p<0.001). Conclusion: It was determined that the e-health literacy training programme applied in this study improved the e-health literacy level of nursing students. In line with this result, it can be suggested that similar programmes should be integrated into the nursing curriculum to improve the e-health literacy level of nursing students. Through these programmes, nurse educators can implement strategies for students to critically evaluate reliable health resources.
