Nursing Students' Experiences in Intensive Care Practice: A Qualitative Study

This study highlights the key challenges and learning needs of nursing students in critical care settings, providing important information for critical care nurses. Even in countries where students do not complete an internship in critical care, the findings support developing orientation, mentoring and emotional support systems for newly graduated nurses. A supportive learning environment that strengthens the connection between theory and practice is essential for the learning process and patient safety.
