Undergraduate student nurses' lived experiences of anxiety during their first clinical practicum: A phenomenological study

Undergraduate nursing students’ difficulties during clinical training: perception of the main causes

“…Despite this, relationship and communication are of utmost importance in care delivery to terminally-ill patients, not only because of the specificity and complexity of the information to be conveyed, but also because of patients and families' need to feel involved, supported, and safe during care delivery. However, according to Sun et al (2016), students perceived that there is sometimes a mismatch between their verbal and non-verbal skills, which may influence patients' opinion on their clinical competences. It should also be noted that, although less frequently, students mentioned the communication within the team.…”

“…These authors add that nurses' workload and unsafe nursing staffing in some CT settings also influence the development of the student-patient relationship and communication. Sun et al (2016) showed that students were afraid that their verbal and non-verbal skills would be inappropriate and influence patients' perceptions of their clinical skills, which could make them refuse care. According to these authors, students' negative experiences lead to feelings of anxiety and fear (of failing), causing problems such as poor sleep quality, loss of appetite, headaches, stomach pain, among others.…”

“They can crush you”: Nursing students’ experiences of bullying and the role of faculty

“…Across studies, students identify the relationship with clinical faculty members as a primary source of stress and anxiety. [55][56][57][58] Faculty awareness of this reality may inform their decision-making and make them more mindful of the student experience.…”

Effects of Personality and Coping Behavior on Clinical Practice Stress among One College Nursing Students

“…간호대학생들은 임상 현장에서 다양한 질병을 가진 수많은 환자들을 만나게 되고, 이러한 경험은 학생들에게 매 우 도전적일 수 있기 때문에 (Shaban et al, 2012), 일부 간호대학생들에게 임상실습은 힘들고 고통스러운 경험으로 기억될 수 있다(Levett-Jones et al, 2015;Sun et al, 2016). 임상실습 현장에서 간호대학생들은 학교에서 배운 이론을 임상에 적용하는 어려움을 비롯하여 역할 수행, 무력 감, 환자 및 보호자와의 관계 등으로 인한 스트레스를 경험 한다 (Whang SJ, 2006).…”

“…뿐만 아니라 다양한 분야의 의료 진들과 친숙하지 못한 병원이라는 환경에서 상호작용하며 실제 간호를 수행해야 하므로 많은 어려움과 스트레스 역시 경험한다 (Park SJ et al, 2013). 다수의 연구에서 간호대 학생들이 임상실습으로 인한 스트레스를 경험한다고 보고되 어 왔으며 (Whang SJ, 2006;Park SJ et al, 2013;Kim JK, 2014;Kim K, 2014;Sun et al, 2016), 이러한 스 트레스는 임상실습이 진행될수록 더욱 심화된다고 하였다 (Sun et al, 2016). 학습 환경에서 스트레스는 학생들에게 동기를 부여하기도 하지만 (Mahat, 1998), 극심한 스트레 스는 오히려 자신감 결여 및 참여의 부족, 수행의 감소와 같 이 학생들의 학습을 방해하게 되므로 (Reeve et al, 2013), 간호대학생들이 임상실습 동안 경험하고 있는 스트레스에 대해 살펴보는 것이 중요하다고 생각된다.…”
