Abstract

Senior baccalaureate nursing students (N = 397) just weeks away from graduation were asked to complete the "Worry Clinic Form." This form invites subjective responses from the students' perspectives about their "current" and "greatest-to-date" professional concerns. Content analysis was used to determine the categories of these concerns. Categories of both current and greatest-to-date professional concerns were (1) functioning as a competent registered professional nurse and (2) the environment of work.
