Nurses' self-esteem affects patient care. This study measured self-esteem of pre-registration nursing students over their 3-year training programme. Quantitative data were measured by the Professional Self-Concept Nursing Inventory and the Tennessee Self-Concept Scale. Students's self-esteem decreased during their training programme. Results indicate a need to address the damaging effects of the process of becoming a nurse.
