Abstract

At a time when there is a greater than ever need for nurses, the healthcare system is being tested. This analysis's emphasis on better comprehending the reasons students entered and left the program early was timely for the researcher. Understanding the reasons and conditions behind the students' early exit will raise awareness of the critical role that education plays in maintaining the demographics of students, which has implications for the future of the nursing workforce. A sense of the educated overall picture of nursing as a program of choice prior to medicine and the roles portrayed by nurses was conveyed by the participants' viewpoints, which were recorded by instant messaging and inductively analyzed in a methodical manner. Their life goals as a beginning career intention, as well as their inspiration and family members who work in the same profession, were also shaped by the nursing program. As leavers probed more into their initial decisions and discovered that they were inspired by other perspectives and wished to modify them as they experienced life problems, they were cut off (disconnected) from the curriculum. In light of this, the college of nursing should offer more forums to aid school dropouts in understanding the nursing profession, as this area in the educational aspects of the profession can provide a substantive profile in areas of recruiting and retention and can take an additional step towards addressing the nursing shortage, thus creating accessible records for future studies and ensuring a workforce.
