Introduction
Metaphors are one of the most effective linguistic tools that are used to reveal how society describes nursing and what their vision of nursing is and to understand how effective the roles and responsibilities assumed by nurses in a multidisciplinary healthcare team are in protecting and maintaining the health of individuals, families, and society.
Aim
The aim of this study was to reveal the perceptions of society about “nurses” through metaphors.
Methods
The study was planned with a mixed design involving qualitative and quantitative research methods. It was carried out with 810 people living in Turkey who were between the ages of 15 and 65 and voluntarily participated in the study. Each participant was asked to fill in the blanks in the sentence, “A nurse is like a/an………………because…………” The data were analyzed by using qualitative (content analysis) and quantitative (chi‐squared) data analysis methods.
Results
It was determined that the participants produced 194 metaphors related to the concept of a “nurse.” It was observed that they frequently used metaphors of “angel,” “parent,” “doctor's assistant/right hand,” “lifesaver,” and “confidant” regarding the concept of nurse and conceptualized a nurse as “Beneficial/Helpful/Healer/Facilitator.”
Conclusions and Clinical relevance
The results showed that the awareness and perception of society toward nurses should be improved on the basis of the opportunity created by the COVID‐19 pandemic period, and the concepts should be introduced to younger generations in a wider framework under the leadership of nursing faculties.
