Özet

This study examines the cases of student nurses leaving school. It was conducted in a descriptive and retrospective design in the nursing department of a university in Turkey. The data were obtained by examining the automation system, decisions of the board of directors and student files. It was found that 7.6% of the registered students left the school. The findings of the study presented that students, especially the ones with lower academic achievement, left school generally in the first year of their education. It can be advised that the subject should be examined elaborately in future studies. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
