Qualitative Study on the Track of Professional Identity of Undergraduate Nursing Students
Objective To explore the track of professional identity of undergraduate nursing students,so as to provide reference for improving their professional identity and reducing the brain drain of nursing students.Methods In-depth interviews were conducted with 12 undergraduate nursing students,and the data were analyzed by grounded theory.Results One core category is the track of professional identity,and five categories are the reasons of major choice,inherent professional cognition,systematic learning improvement,practical experience change and career choice inclination.Conclusion Inherent professional cognition may run through all stages of nursing stu-dents'professional identity.Systematic study and clinical practice will change nursing students'professional iden-tity,and professional identity is no longer a sufficient and necessary condition for determining nursing students'career choice.Nursing educators and nursing managers should understand the track of nursing students'profes-sional identity,improve their professional identity,reduce the brain drain of nursing talents and promote the stabili-ty of nurses.
