Description

While attending a four-year residential nursing school program, many students experience feelings of stress and self-doubt. These feelings can impact student well-being and overall academic success. Stress and self-doubt are due to many factors such as grades, clinical experiences, and meeting expectations of the profession. Studies revealed that positive student-faculty relationships support a reduction in stress and self-doubt. Positive psychosocial and academic outcomes, motivated learning, and a greater sense of self-worth in academic abilities are closely related to student-faculty relationships according to the literature. The presentation question of interest addresses student-faculty relationships and the impact on student well-being in four-year nursing programs. A review of the literature was completed to study the subject matter and to initiate a resolution of interest on behalf of nursing students. This issue is an urgent call to action, as literature reveals an almost 17% decrease in nursing school admissions, as well as a startling, 37% of nurses leave the profession within two years. These statistics give credence to the significance of student-faculty relationships, to ensure optimal learning experiences that will further support their professional practice.
