Abstract

Background District nursing vacancies are recognised as excessively high in comparison to many other nursing specialities. The role is often considered as an option for nurses after a period of registration as a nurse which may be informed by multiple factors. Objectives The objectives of the study were to explore barriers to district nurse employment from the perspective of undergraduate nurses. Design A descriptive qualitative design was employed using focus groups as the method of data collection. Study approval reference no: 21/NAH/006, 30/03/23. Participants were recruited from the current undergraduate nursing programme (n=60). Method Thematic analysis was chosen as a flexible method of qualitative data analysis. Results The study produced themes relating to role ambiguity, personal preferences, educational opportunities and recruitment and employer engagement.
