Self-rated professional competence and well-being at work after obtaining a Swedish nursing license: A longitudinal mixed-methods study of internationally and domestically educated nurses

An inclusive workplace is where everyone is supported to thrive and succeed regardless of their background. Supportive working conditions and general self-efficacy have been found to be important for nurses' perceived competence and well-being at work, however, in the context of being a nurse in a new country, research is limited. Moreover, knowledge is lacking about whether different paths to a nursing license are related to nurses' perceived competence and well-being when working.
