Nursing students’ knowledge, attitudes, and willingness to care for the elderly: A cross-sectional study in Vietnam
Introduction
Population aging is a significant global trend, leading to high rates of multimorbidity and frailty among older adults.
Objective
This study explores the knowledge, attitudes, and willingness to care for the elderly and its related factors among nursing students in Vietnam.
Method
A descriptive cross-sectional study was undertaken among undergraduate nursing students between October 2022 and June 2023.
Results
The findings indicate that 18.46% of students showed good knowledge while the majority of students (95.75%) had a positive attitude toward the elderly. There were relationships between age, academic year, living with grandparents, having clinical experience in caring for the elderly, level of knowledge about the elderly, and attitude towards the elderly were associated with a significantly greater willingness to care for elderly.
Conclusions
These findings underscore the importance of addressing both knowledge and attitudinal components in nursing education to foster greater commitment to geriatric nursing among future healthcare professionals.
