Abstract
Confidence level among nursing student is an important factor to enable them to carry out their duties competently in the clinical area. Most of the time nursing students lacked confidence in clinical skills. Data was collected from the month of February to April 2008 using a tool adopted from Beech, 2003 on 189 nursing students in a nursing college. The results revealed that 90.5% (n=171) were not confident in providing and managing care for patients. Changes in the nursing curriculum that encourages more of student centered study activities can cause a change in the students’ confidence level in the clinical setting.
