Studies show that nursing students suffer from stress about their lack of competence or uncertainty, whereas professional nurses concerns focus on work overload, death and suffering followed by insufficient preparation. Also discussed in this book is the role that emotional intelligence plays in establishing therapeutic nurse-patient relationships as well as increasing cultural diversity in nursing schools around the world. An examination of the concerns of Hispanic and American Indian nursing students as they progress through the upper division of a baccalaureate nursing curriculum is discussed herein, as well as the attitudes of nursing students towards older adult patients.
