İntörn Hemşirelik Öğrencilerinin Klinik Uygulama Öncesi Yaşadıkları Covid-19 Korku Düzeyi ve Ölüm Anksiyetesinin Profesyonel Değerlere Etkisi

Amaç: Bu çalışma intörn hemşirelik öğrencilerinin klinik uygulama öncesi yaşadıkları COVID-19 korku düzeyi ve ölüm anksiyetesinin profesyonel değerlere etkisini belirlemek amacı ile yapıldı. Yöntem: Bu tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipteki çalışmanın evrenini, Türkiye’de Covid-19 salgının en yoğun yaşandığı ilk beş il arasında yer alan bir üniversitenin hemşirelik bölümünde öğrenim gören 218 intörn öğrenci, örneklemini de 215 (%98.6) öğrenci oluşturdu. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin COVID-19 korku ve ölüm kaygıları orta ve mesleki değerleri iyi düzeydedir. COVID-19 Korkusu Ölçeği düzeyi ile hem Abdel-Khalek Ölüm Kaygısı Ölçeği ve hem de mesleki değerlerin güvenlik alt boyutu arasında pozitif ilişki bulunmuştur. Mesleki değerler ve COVID-19 korkusu alt boyutları, klinik uygulama yapmak isteyen öğrencilerde daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Yatağa bağımlı hastalara bakım verenlerde, Ölüm Kaygısı Ölçeği puanları etkilenmiştir. Ayrıca, öğrencilerde COVID-19 korkusu, klinik uygulama isteğini olumsuz yönde etkilemiştir. Sonuç: Pandemi sürecinde, öğrencilerde COVID-19 korku ve ölüm kaygısı tespit edildi. Öğrencilerin mesleki değerlerinin etkilenmediği, insan onuru, sorumluluk ve güvenlik değerleri yüksek olanların klinik uygulamaya başlamak istedikleri saptandı. Bu nedenle, pandemi sürecinde, mesleki değerlerin geliştirilmesine yönelik psikolojik danışmanlık ve eğitimlerin meslekten ayrılmanın önlenmesinde veya değerlerin geliştirilmesinde faydalı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
