HEMŞİRELİK BİRİNCİ SINIF ÖĞRENCİLERİNİN MESLEK SEÇİMİNİ ETKİLEYEN FAKTÖRLER

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı hemşirelik birinci sınıf öğrencilerinin hemşirelik mesleğini seçme nedenlerini belirlemektir.
Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı nitelikteki bu araştırma, Karadeniz Teknik Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi'nde öğrenim gören 180 hemşirelik 1. sınıf öğrencisinden araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 141 öğrenci ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler, Bilgi formu ve Hemşirelikte Meslek Seçim Ölçeği (HMSÖ) kullanılarak 14 Mart -1 Nisan 2016 tarihleri arasında toplanmış, yüzde, ortalama, ANOVA, t testleri, Mann Whitney U ve Kruskall Wallis testleri ile değerlendirilmiştir
Bulgular: HMSÖ göre öğrenciler ölçek toplamında %52.34±%14.54, mesleğe uygunluk %54.21±%19.99 ve yaşamsal nedenler %48.90±%15.10 alt boyutlarında yüzde ortalamaları almıştır. Özellikle üniversite giriş sınavından sonra meslek seçiminde hemşireliği ilk beş tercihi arasına yerleştiren, bir hemşireden hizmet alan öğrencilerin mesleğe uygunluk alt boyutu ve ölçek toplam yüzde ortalamaları yüksektir. Lisans giriş puanı sadece hemşireliğe yettiği için hemşireliği tercih eden öğrencilerin mesleğe uygunluk alt boyut yüzde ortalamaları düşükken, yaşamsal faktörler alt boyut yüzde ortalamaları yüksektir (p<0.05).
Sonuç: Öğrencilerin hemşireliği; iş imkânının fazla olması aynı zamanda kendi istek ve ilgileri doğrultusunda, ailelerinin ve meslekte çalışan kişilerin teşviki ile ve ekonomik faktörlerin de cazip gelmesi nedeniyle seçtikleri ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu doğrultuda nitelikli hemşirelerin yetişebilmesi için öğrencilerin istek, yetenek ve başarılarını artırmaya yönelik programların planlanması ve uygulanması önerilebilir.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Hemşireler, hemşirelik, meslekler, öğrenciler.
