Background: The nursing profession faces workforce shortages and high turnover. Understanding nursing career choices is crucial. This study explores the role of interest in fostering grit among nursing students.
Method: This qualitative descriptive study examined motivations of first-year Bachelor of Nursing students at a regional university in Australia. Data from "Grow Your Grit" program journal entries were analyzed to identify key themes; the study adhered to COREQ guidelines.
Results: Four themes emerged: (1) encompassing a passion for helping others; (2) personal experiences with health care; (3) role models' influence; and (4) practical reasons. Students expressed a deep-seated desire to have a positive effect, inspired by personal health care experiences and role models.
Conclusion: Intrinsic interests, such as compassion and personal experiences, in choosing a nursing career are vital and may inform educational strategies to sustain student engagement and resilience, contributing to a committed and competent nursing workforce. [J Nurs Educ. 2025;64(X):XXX-XXX.].
