Abstract

This qualitative study aimed to describe experiences of moral distress among students enrolled in associate degree nursing programs. Four themes emerged during analysis: (a) dealing with the inherent stress of nursing school; (b) learning and working in an unjust culture; (c) disempowerment and status; (d) moral residue and regret. Strategies to help nurse educators mediate and support students through challenging situations are discussed.
