Abstract:
Objective To explore the status of the English learning among nurses and influencing factors. Method A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate the status on English learning of 282 clinical nursing from 3 first-class hospitals in Beijing. The influencing factors were analyzed. Results The clinical nurses were in a poor condition and low interest and they had a poor setting for learning English. The influencing factors were found to be their English competency, education level, professional title and medical department (P < 0.05). Conclusions The clinical nurses are at lower level concerning English learning situation, learning interest, settings, learning motivation and a platform for training and practice. Therefore, hospitals should actively enhance their interest in English learning, learning motivation and learning settings and provide them with a platform for English training and practice so that they can increase their nursing professional English level.
