Abstract

Nursing is a profession that has long been troubled with its public image. A poor public image of nursing may affect not only nursing recruitment, but also nurses’ attitudes towards work (Takase et al. 2002).There have been many images of nurses purported in the media, in movies and books, and in the news. Even though these multiple misconceived images abound, nurses continue to be quite invisible in the media, compared to other cultural groups. The stereotypical public image of nursing is a major concern to nurses. Public images are the basic bond of any society and are produced by sharing messages. Since prior studies on this subject are insufficient, the researcher as a nursing educator tried to find out the public perceptions of nursing students about their profession.
