Methods From May to June 2011, 90 nursing students who had worked for over eight months were surveyed using the self-made questionnaire. Results About 87.5% of nursing students encountered the patient’s refusals in the clinical practice and the most important reason was that the patients and their families did not trust the experience of nursing students. Most of the students showed the negative emotion and response after the refusal. Conclusions Nursing students should strengthen their basic knowledge and basic skills, and improve their communication skills. Furthermore, the teachers also should pay attention to the cultivation of emotional intelligence and positive encouragement, which could assist the nursing students in dealing with the refusals in the right way.
