| dc.description.abstract | This project’s goal is to uncover the cause of mental health decline, weight gain, or abrupt weight loss in Texas A&M University Corpus Christi Nursing Program Cohort Fall 2021 students. Nursing students constantly dedicate their time working toward grade success, and that behavior can lead to the neglect of their overall health. I analyzed anonymous data collected from my Fall 2021 Cohort regarding their mental and physical health status from their entry into the Nursing Program, compared to their final semester. They shared the change in their weight and mental health, and opened up about the factors that attributed to those changes. These are our future nurses, and mental health is essential to prevent burnout, and weight gain/abrupt loss can cause impaired immune function, increased anxiety, lethargy, etc. Therefore, it is crucial that the results be analyzed and shared appropriately to implement changes that can help our future nurses first care for themselves before they go into their careers of providing continuous care to others. | en_US |
