THE IMPACT OF A BUNDLE OF INTERVENTION PACKAGE ON SELF-ESTEEM LEVELS AMONG FINAL YEAR NURSING STUDENTS IN A SELECTED COLLEGE: A STUDY

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of a bundle of intervention package on self-esteem levels among final year nursing students in a selected college. Self-esteem plays a crucial role in shaping individuals' mental well-being and academic performance. Nursing students, facing the demands of their final year, may experience heightened stress and anxiety, which can affect their self-esteem. The bundle of intervention package comprises various strategies, such as counseling sessions, mindfulness exercises, and peer support groups, aimed at improving self-esteem levels in nursing students. A quasi-experimental design was used, with a pre-test and post-test evaluation of self-esteem levels using validated self-esteem assessment tools. Data was collected from a sample of final year nursing students who voluntarily participated in the study. The findings suggest that the bundle of intervention package significantly improved self-esteem levels among the nursing students, highlighting the importance of implementing such interventions to promote mental well-being and academic success in nursing education.
