Abstract

This study aimed to identify the career paths and future career plans of nursing graduates from Chelsea College, University of London. Self-completion questionnaires were sent to the 1981, 1982 and 1983 graduates ( N = 54). Employment patterns immediately after and 1, 2 and 3 yr after graduation are described. Most graduates selected careers in nursing, up to 3 yr after graduation. Hospital based clinical posts were most popular and many undertook further clinical courses. The long- and short-term career plans of graduates employed as nurses and those no longer nursing are described. Most graduates indicated that they intended to remain in nursing in the long term.
