Abstract: (220 Views)
Background & Objective: Clinical education is a fundamental part of nursing education. Management's role in nursing is vital and is closely related to the quality of care in medical centers. The present study was conducted to explain the experiences of final-year nursing students from the nursing management internship course.
Materials & Methods: The present study is a conventional content analysis study conducted with the participation of 18 final-year nursing students. Data collection was done through semi-structured interviews. The interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using MAXQDA software version 2020, from which themes were inductively extracted. Data analysis led to the extraction of two themes and seven categories.
Result: The first theme was guiding experiences, which included five categories of professional communication practice: strengthening teamwork skills, understanding multiple roles, understanding legal aspects, and enhancing personal development. The second theme was obstacles and experiences, which included two categories: understanding work stress and an inappropriate organizational atmosphere.
Conclusion: According to the findings of the present study, passing the nursing management internship course can lead to the formation of a real perception of the tasks and responsibilities of the nursing profession in students. These perceptions can either strengthen or weaken students' professional outlooks. Therefore, the findings of this study can be valuable in designing nursing internships.
