The satisfaction scores of nurses were also at high levels in all aspects. The achievement of the curriculum purpose had the highest satisfaction level (M = 4.39, SD = .61). The structure and content of the curriculum had the second highest satisfaction level (M = 4.29, SD = .70), followed by the teaching staff (M = 4.21, SD = .72), the method of teaching and learning (M = 4.03, SD = .70), and the instructional facilities, which had the lowest level of satisfaction (M = 3.55, SD = .83).
