Özet:

Abstract The study was conducted to determine the compliance of nursing students with first clinical experience with their care roles. The research was conducted on 190 students who gained their first clinical experience in a nursing faculty (in İzmir, Turkey). A demographic questionnaire and Nursing Care Role Orientation Scale were used for data collection. It was found that the mean age of the students was 20.74 ± .98, 75.3% were female, 62.1% preferred the nursing profession, 84.7% considered caring as the main duty of the nurse, and 72.6% had the experience of caregiving. The mean score of Nursing Care Role Orientation Scale was 80.92 ± 8.13 (66-105), “collaboration”, “research”, “nurse-patient interaction” and “autonomy” factor mean scores were 27.78±4.68(16-40), 24.94±2.82(20-33), 18.3±3.13(12-25) and 9.88±1.93(5-15) respectively. It is seen that the student nurses with first clinical experience have high compliance with their care roles. The students who stated that caregiving was the duty of the nurse had higher compliance with their general care roles and that the students who had the experience of providing care for someone had higher compliance with their collaboration and interaction care roles. Key Words: Student, Nursing, Clinical experience.
