ATTENDANCE Students are expected to be present for all scheduled clinical practice experiences, simulation laboratories and post-clinical conferences. Students who have extraordinary circumstances preventing attendance should explain these circumstances to the course instructor prior to the scheduled clinical practice experience, simulation laboratory, or post-clinical conference. Instructors will then make an effort to accommodate reasonable requests. A grade penalty may be assigned for unexcused seminar or clinical absences. The faculty member will advise the method of notification for absences to the clinical site e.g. phone, email, and notification of facility. ACCOMMODATIONS DUE TO DISABILITY Each semester, students are responsible for requesting memorandum from the Disability Resource Center to notify faculty of their requested individual accommodations. This should be done at the start of the semester. STUDENT HANDBOOK Students are to refer to the College of Nursing Student Handbook for information about University & College of Nursing policies, Academic Honesty, and professional behavior. TEACHING METHODS Supervised clinical practice experience, simulation laboratory, and post-clinical conferences. LEARNING ACTIVITIES Providing and evaluating care for assigned clients in a variety of settings (all multi-system acute adult settings). Clinical Unit Guidelines Clinical Practice 4 is not an observational experience. During this time students are to develop critical thinking, apply previously learned concepts to multiple client systems, e.g. individuals, families, groups of individual patients, nursing, interprofessional health care teams. The students are also to work on developing nursing skills (IV medications, insertion of foleys, NG tubes, dressings, etc.), organization and priority setting, identification and implementation of delegation and accountability within the unit, assessment and charting. Students are to progress to providing care for multiple patients. This includes medication administration according to the policy of the facility. There is no clinical pre-planning for this course.
Simulation Lab Guidelines: Simulation lab is considered to be part of your clinical experience and professional behavior should be reflected. Students are to wear their CON scrubs and closed toed shoes. Students are to arrive to the lab on time, tardiness will not be accepted. Use of personal technology not related to participation in the clinical scenarios will not be accepted. If it is determined that a student is not adhering to these guidelines during the simulation experience, that student may be sent home at the discretion of the faculty instructor. Evaluation of a student’s participation in the simulation experience will be a factor in the student’s clinical evaluation for this course. EVALUATION METHODS/ COURSE GRADE CALCULATION Clinical experience in both the clinical units and in the simulation laboratory will be evaluated through faculty observation, verbal communication with the student, written work, and agency staff reports using a College of Nursing Clinical Evaluation Form. Faculty reserve the right to alter clinical experiences, including removal from client care areas, of any student to maintain patient safety and to provide instructional experiences to support student learning. Evaluation of clinical performance on the clinical unit and in the simulation laboratory will be based on achievement of course and program objectives using a College of Nursing Clinical Evaluation Form. All areas are to be rated. A rating of Satisfactory represents satisfactory performance and a rating of Unsatisfactory represents unsatisfactory performance. The student must achieve a rating of Satisfactory in each area by completion of the semester in order to achieve a passing grade for the course. A rating of less than satisfactory in any of the areas at semester end will constitute an Unsatisfactory course grade. The faculty member will hold evaluation conferences with the student and clinical preceptor, if applicable. The faculty member will document or summarize each conference on the Clinical Evaluation Form or Incidental Advisement Record. This summary will be signed by the faculty member and student. Mid-rotation evaluation conferences will be made available to each student. Final evaluation conferences with faculty members are mandatory and will be held during the last week of each clinical rotation. A student may request additional conferences at any time by contacting the faculty member.
