BACKGROUND
Determining the reasons people choose to study nursing may help educators and managers develop student-focussed and enticing nursing programmes. In Australia, little research has been undertaken with students entering nursing programmes and the reasons for their choice.
OBJECTIVES
The aim of this study was to determine why new students choose to enter nursing at university.
DESIGN
A descriptive survey design.
SETTING
An urban university in Sydney, Australia.
PARTICIPANTS
Undergraduate nursing students at the beginning of their first year of study.
METHOD
An open-ended question relating to the reasons for students' choice of a nursing programme was included in the survey. The transcribed textual data were content analysed for words related to the students' choice.
RESULTS
The students' reasons for entering nursing programmes were both personal and career related, with personal being more dominant. The reasons to start nursing were: being able to help and care for people, job security, the ability to enter tertiary education and the enjoyment or love of nursing.
CONCLUSIONS
Nursing remains a career of choice for young and mature students entering university. It is seen to provide security, interest and opportunity to help and care for others. Universities must focus on this as they develop programmes for a generation where multiple changes of career appear inevitable during their lifetime. The nursing profession needs to look at career pathways after graduation that provide these challenges within nursing itself.
背景
确定人们选择学习护理专业的原因，可能有助于教育工作者和管理人员制定以学生为中心且具有吸引力的护理课程。在澳大利亚，针对进入护理课程的学生及其选择原因的研究较少。
目的
本研究旨在确定新生选择进入大学学习护理专业的原因。
设计
描述性调查设计。
地点
澳大利亚悉尼的一所城市大学。
参与者
本科护理专业一年级新生。
方法
调查问卷中包含一个与学生选择护理课程原因相关的开放式问题。对转录的文本数据进行内容分析，找出与学生选择相关的词汇。
结果
学生选择护理课程的原因既与个人因素有关，也与职业因素有关，其中个人因素更为突出。选择开始学习护理的原因包括：能够帮助和照顾他人、工作保障、有机会接受高等教育以及对护理工作的喜爱。
结论
对于进入大学的年轻学生和成年学生而言，护理专业仍是他们的职业选择之一。护理专业被视为能提供保障、带来兴趣以及给予帮助和照顾他人的机会。大学在为这一代人制定课程时必须关注这一点，因为他们在一生中多次改变职业似乎不可避免。护理行业需要审视毕业后的职业发展路径，以便在护理领域内部提供这些挑战。
