  As if I don't belong here. First-Year Experiences of International Nursing Students at University - A Qualitative Study

  Tuncer, Gulsum Zekiye; Tuncer, Metin

  Background: The rapid adaptation of international nursing students to university life enables them to actively continue their education without disruption in the following years. Identifying the challenges faced by these students, who are future nursing professionals, is essential fortheir adaptation and professional development. Aim: This study aimed to explore the perspectives of international nursing students regarding their first-year experiences at university. Methods: This study employed a descriptive qualitative research design. The Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research (COREQ) was used for reporting. The sample consisted of 13 international nursing students enrolled in the Faculty of Nursing at a university. Data were collected through face-to-face, individual, in-depth interviews using semi-structured interview questions. Content analysis was used to analyze the data. Results: The mean age of the nursing students was 23.3 years. Among the participants, seven were women, 11 had been residing in Turkiye for approximately one year, 12 were from Iran, and one was from Iraq. Three key themes emerged in this study: Facilitators of Adaptation, Challenges, and Coping. The students identified several facilitators of adaptation, including similarities between the Turkish economy and culture and their home countries' economies and cultures, proficiency in the Turkish language, studying at a nursing school aligned with their career goals, and receiving social support from their relatives. However, they also faced challenges such as language barriers, cultural differences, discrimination, social isolation, homesickness, and academic and clinical difficulties. Conclusion: International nursing students may encounter language barriers, cultural differences, and education-specific challenges during their first year of nursing school. In this context, developing support mechanisms to guide these students in their academic and social lives will facilitate their ability to cope with these difficulties.

  Aydin, Aydanur; Gürsoy, Ayla; Candas Altinbas, Bahar; Cilingir, Dilek; Bulut, Enes; Ertürk Yavuz, Melek

  Background: Human and technology factors in healthcare can lead to errors that threaten human life. A strong patient safety culture in hospitals may be linked to better patient outcomes. Because of the potential for mistakes in surgical departments, surgical nurses are critical to establishing and maintaining a patient safety culture. Aim: The aim of this study was to explore the patient safety culture perceptions of surgical nurses. Methods: This descriptive study was performed with 206 nurses working in the surgical clinics and operating rooms of 1 university hospital, 2 public hospitals, and 1 private hospital. A “Questionnaire” and the “Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture” were used for data collection. The data were analyzed using mean, number, and percentage values, 1-way analysis of variance, Tukey Honestly Significant Difference (HSD), and chi-square tests. Results: The study revealed that surgical nurses’ patient safety culture perception was at a medium level. The highest mean rate of positive responses in The Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture came from “Teamwork within units” and the lowest mean rate of positive answers came from the “Non-punitive response to errors” subdimension. In addition, 85.7% of the surgical nurses did not report any errors in the previous 1 year, and nurses who had been working for ≥11 years submitted more error reports (P = .001). Conclusion: Nurses’ patient safety culture perception was at a medium level. Recommendations for improving patient safety culture should include on-the-job training programs and improvements in employees’ working conditions.
