Result: There were two themes emerged from data: 1) Internal perceptions of updating capacity to provide care, with three subthemes: Having great expectation, Being confidence as a professional nurse, and Developing Self-Initiation, 2) External contexts driving perception of practicing nurses, with two subthemes: Giving best care and Acquiring requirement.
