Abstract
Objectives: To investigate how undergraduate nursing students perceive teamwork among nurses during their most recent clinical placement and to identify factors that can affect their teamwork perception.
Methods: The descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out between September 2022 and February 2023 using the Slovak version of the Nursing Teamwork Survey (NTS) tool and included 749 undergraduate nursing students.
Results: The average NTS score was 3.32 (SD=0.43) and significantly associated with academic year, perceived staff adequacy, clinical supervision and learning expectations, hours per week, number of patients per shift, and number of students per shift (p<0.05).
Conclusions: The study underscores the importance of understanding teamwork dynamics from the perspective of undergraduate nursing students.
