Résumé : | Having teachers who are knowledgeable and passionate about issues related to older people is crucial in enhancing nursing students' interest in older people nursing. However, whether such commitments and abilities are present among gerontological nurse teachers is unknown. This study therefore describes how undergraduate nursing students perceive their gerontological nurse teachers' abilities to facilitate students' interest in older people nursing. This is a descriptive cross-sectional study of undergraduate nursing students (N = 331) in Finland. The data were collected electronically using the Gerontological Nurse Teacher Scale (GeNTS). Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. The students agreed that their teachers are knowledgeable and interested in gerontological nursing (M = 3.62, SD = 0.92) and demonstrate leadership in gerontology (M = 3.50, SD = 1.04). However, they were uncertain about how their teachers address students concerns about aging, promote gerontology careers, and the teachers' abilities in developing gerontological nursing practical training. Gerontological nursing teachers should make deliberate effort to promote gerontology careers by highlighting the incentives and possibilities for career advancement in older people nursing. Further studies are needed to find out if nursing students' perception of their gerontological nurse teachers is a predictor of students interest in older people nursing. |
