A W-o-W film evening explored the changing nature of the nursing profession through vocational guidance films over the last 80 years.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/work-o-witch.at\/w-ow-filmscreening-1-pflegenotstand-im-scheinwerferlicht\/\">a film evening on nursing education<\/a>&nbsp; at the Vienna Film Academy last November, three vocational guidance films from the 1940s, 1980s and 2020s, among others, were jointly scrutinized by nursing professionals, filmmakers and both scholars in film studies and vocational science. Revealing stages of progress and regression as well as fundamental questions concerning vocational training, film and fiction. What does a contemporary nursing education consist of? How much reality is there in vocational guidance films?<br><br>Vocational Guidance is a film genre of its own, which in contrast to advertising, has no overt commercial intentions. It does not promote any employer or an educational provider but tries to convey a neutral image of an occupation and enlightens us on the basis of work tasks, qualifications, job requirements, training and social dimensions. In this respect, little has changed in the aim, but pretty much everything has changed in the way it is produced and consumed.<br><br>\u201cFaster, shorter, more colorful\u201d is how one could summarize the historic development of vocational guidance films.  Axel Stummer\u2019s film \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/mediawien-film.at\/film\/441\/\">Beruf helfen<\/a>\u201d (occupation: carer) (AT 1982) was created when it was still customary to last 30min so that there would be enough time for questions from students within the one-hour lesson; presently vocational guidance films have to stand up to competition from three-minute TikTok videos (see, for example, \u201cGesundheits- und Krankenpflege\u201d (2019) by stay tuned from the Austrian Public Employment Service series of career videos).<br><br>In \u2018Nursing\u2019 (USA 1942), the didactic setting from the black-and-white era of film saw an authoritative male narrator with a lecturing voice off-screen explaining the profession. In contrast, today\u2019s vocational guidance films exclusively feature qualified and prospective practitioners speaking for themselves. In \u2018Beruf helfen\u2019 from the 1980s, both elements are still used, as well as a mix of actors and active nurses. In addition, according to Stummer, there was a requirement to give the film the quality of a feature film. Consequently, there is also a plot of sorts, and even the leisure time behavior of nursing staff and their residence is given an unbelievable amount of space.<br><br>Largely unthinkable today, this aspect thus promoted an important additional finding: we get an insight, into the milieu and social environment of caregivers. As a highlight, director Stummer also built in a few suspense elements \u00e0 la \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Hospital_der_Geister\">The Kingdom' (1994)*<\/a>thus strengthening the feature film character. \u201cEverything was predetermined down to the smallest detail and I wasn\u2019t allowed to change anything in the script, but I took this artistic license,\u201d Stummer remarks mischievously during the film discussion. Stummer was still a student at the Film Academy at the time, and was clearly delighted to see the film again after 40 years.<br><br>But how much fiction is there in vocational guidance films, then and now? In current films from the Austrian PES on nursing, for instance, more male nurses than female nurses have their say, surprisingly. The attempt to attract men to the profession is obvious and legitimate, however, the fact that the proportion of men in nursing in Austria is below 20 percent is conspicuously concealed. In this respect, people used to be more accurate: the footage from \u2018Nursing\u2019 (1942) shows only women (note: the training was segregated according to gender). Thus, a certain advertising character cannot be denied in today\u2019s vocational guidance films. Today, however, the conscious recruitment of nurses obviously has to plug the career in an even \u201cshorter, faster, more colorful\u201d manner (cf. the 2min campaign film of the Hamburg clinics).<br><br>In the past, the idea was invariably: the longer the more convincing. The National Health Service (NHS) in Great Britain recently launched a project on the occasion of its 70th anniversary in which, together with the British Film Institute (BFI), around&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/player.bfi.org.uk\/free\/collection\/nhs-on-film\">100 films on health care<\/a>&nbsp;(feature films, documentaries, animated films, etc.) were compiled.  Among them was one of the most ambitious recruitment films ever made, tellingly titled \u201cLife in Her Hands\u201d from 1951, a 60min B\u2011movie sponsored by the British Ministry of Labour with the aim of attracting women, obviously, to the nursing profession, where the film\u2019s success was measured by recruitment numbers. The number of applications after the screenings, which were mostly held in town halls, was meticulously documented. Reportedly, the percentage of new female nurses increased by 27% within five years.<br><br>Whether film has an active impact on nursing recruitment today remains largely an open question. According to a recent U.S. market research survey, the hospital series&nbsp;<em>Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Emergency Room<\/em>&nbsp;are supposedly among the five series with the greatest demonstrable influence on career choice. The issue with this is that an overwhelming proportion of those surveyed saw their profession as misrepresented and actually much more demanding.<br><br>To what extent the publicly financed feature film \u201cLife in Her Hands\u201d truly reflects reality will have to be decided by medical history researchers. What documentary film as genre is capable of achieving in this regard, you can enlighten yourself about in our next article.<br><br>Reference:<br>Allan, H., &amp; Evans, K.
