Abstract

The objective was to develop a tutorial plan regarding the personal and socioeconomic factors that influence the pre-professional practices of nursing students at the Universidad Católica de Cuenca-Macas, from December 2021 to March 2022, in order to mitigate the problem. The main theoretical references related to these factors were established; It was a study with a nonexperimental mixed approach, observational with a cross-sectional correlational scope in which 137 students participated. As relevant results, it was evidenced that, in terms of social factors, the majority of students indicated that their social and family relationship has been affected due to pre-professional practices; Discrimination was lso established as a critical factor, since 55.5% stated that they have sometimes felt discriminated against in health areas, on the other hand, 53.3% indicated that at least once they have felt work overload. Regarding economic factors, 83.2% mentioned that on many occasions they do not have sufficient economic resources to cover expenses such as: transportation, materials and supplies, among others. It was concluded that 9% of the students did not complete their practices in addition to verifying the hypothesis through Pearson's correlation, obtaining an average positive result; therefore, strategies were established through the tutorial plan to reduce the problems on personal and social factors.
