Abstract
Background: Clinical learning is crucial to nursing education, providing students with opportunities to develop essential skills and competencies. The nursing process is a systematic framework guiding nurses in delivering patient-centered care. Objective: This qualitative study explores nursing student experiences with the nursing process and its impact on their development during clinical learning. Methods: The study adopts a qualitative approach involving in-depth interviews, observations, focus groups, and document analysis to gather rich insights into nursing students' experiences with the nursing process. Thematic analysis is used to identify key themes and patterns in the data. Results: The findings highlight the integration of theory and practice, enhancement of clinical reasoning and decision-making skills, emphasis on patient-centered care, promotion of interdisciplinary collaboration, and cultivation of continuous learning and improvement through the nursing process. Conclusion: Integrating the nursing process into nursing curricula enhances students' clinical competencies, promotes patient-centered care, facilitates interdisciplinary collaboration, and fosters a culture of continuous learning. Recommendations are made for curriculum integration, educational strategies, faculty development, and future research directions.
