Middle school students interested in nursing need clarification of the nursing role. Students choose nursing as a career because they want to help others, yet they are often unaware of the need to for arduous secondary education preparation to become a nurse. Middle school students, if not properly exposed to the career during their formative years, may choose another career or not have enough time for adequate nursing school preparation. This integrative review examined seven studies from years 2007 to 2016, which utilized various recruitment strategies to increase the awareness of nursing as a career in middle school and address the need for academic rigor. Implications of the review: there is a need for collaboration between nurses and school counselors to design more robust longitudinal studies of middle school interventions for students interested in nursing as a career.
对护理专业感兴趣的中学生需要明确护理角色。学生选择护理作为职业是因为他们想帮助他人，但他们往往没有意识到成为一名护士需要经过艰苦的中等教育准备。中学生如果在成长阶段没有适当地接触这个职业，可能会选择其他职业，或者没有足够的时间为进入护理学校做好充分准备。这篇综合综述研究了2007年至2016年期间的七项研究，这些研究采用了各种招募策略，以提高中学生对护理职业的认识，并满足学术严谨性的要求。综述的启示：护士和学校辅导员需要合作，为对护理职业感兴趣的学生设计更有力的中学干预纵向研究。
