Abstract

|
The purpose of this study was to describe the meaning of the nursing college student' voluntary service experience in elderly nursing facilities. This is a descriptive phenomenological study that included eighteen participants using convenience sampling in universities in Gyeonggi-do. Colaizzi’s data analysis method was used to inductively determine themes and formulate meanings. Data saturation was achieved and methodological rigor was established. The four main themes derived from analysis were: “consciousness of mature ego”, “enlightenment of Service”, “getting closer to the elderly”, “learning time for the future”. There are positive aspects of self-reflection in the nursing college student' experience of elderly nursing facilities and in-depth understanding of the elderly and knowledge and skills for nursing seniors. Thus, It can be expected to help nursing students, as well as students in the health and welfare area, grow into experts who contribute to the understanding and health of the elderly. Further study is required to verify the factors affecting volunteering to maximize the positive effects of volunteer activities.
