Abstract
Objective: To understand the anxiety status of nursing students during the COVID-19 outbreak in a tertiary hospital in Kunming, and to create a safe and comfortable working environment for nursing students, and to provide the hospital with decompression methods to relieve the anxiety status of nursing students. Methods: A questionnaire survey was conducted among the clinical front-line nursing students from August 2020 to May 2021 in a tertiary hospital in Kunming during the COVID-19 outbreak. The research tools include general data survey and international self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), and SPSS25.0 software is used for statistical analysis of the data. Results: The total score of SAS anxiety in 171 nursing students was (42.25±8.40). There were 37 cases of anxiety, among which mild anxiety accounted for 19.31%, moderate anxiety accounted for 2.33%, and severe anxiety was absent. Conclusion: Because of unfamiliar hospital environment, unskilled nursing skills, lack of clinical experience and changes in interpersonal relationships during clinical practice, the pressure caused by the gap between inner expectations and reality is facing more severe occupational exposure risks than clinical nurses. Coupled with various parents' worries, it had a certain psychological impact on nursing students, which caused anxiety of nursing students. However, male nursing students, younger nursing students with disharmonious family conditions have higher SAS scores, which should be paid more attention to. Therefore, hospital administrators should pay more attention to the anxiety of nursing students, train their hands-on operation ability in nursing operation, teach them how to improve interpersonal relationship, provide their own protection knowledge and guide them to adopt active and effective coping methods to solve problems, so as to relieve anxiety, promote physical and mental health, create a safe and comfortable working environment and reduce the occurrence of adverse events.
