Clinical experience is an integral aspect of nursing education as it transforms the theoretical knowledge into practice and the cornerstone of nursing as a health profession. The experience gained through a good and supportive clinical environment includes the atmosphere of the clinical placement unit, and the relationships shared with clinical staff supervisors (staff nurses) and mentors (Clinical instructors) that will affect the students learning. Elements like good teaching, relationship with the clinical staff and opportunity to practice, need to be assessed to have an understanding of the student’s perception regarding clinical learning environment. The aim of the present study was to assess the clinical learning environment among undergraduate nursing students of various colleges of Punjab. Materials and methods: A non experimental, descriptive research design was used to assess the perception regarding clinical learning environment among undergraduate nursing students. SECEE inventory (student evaluation of clinical education environment) by Kari Jecklin - Sand was used to determine the clinical learning environment. Five Nursing institutions were selected conveniently to select 500 under graduate nursing students randomly. Results and Major Findings: The findings of the study revealed that Majority (68%) of the study subjects were satisfied with their clinical learning environment followed by 30.8% who were moderately satisfied and only 1.2% were unsatisfied with their clinical learning environment. As per the Personal Profile of the study subjects, age and gender were found highly significant with the perceived clinical environment score at the 0.01 level of significance whereas no significant association was found out with the habitat, marital status, type of family, place of stay during study and financing during study. As per the family background, mother’s occupation was found highly associated with the clinical learning environment score whereas no association was found with the annual income of parents, education of mother, education of father, father’s occupation and number of siblings.

The Relationship

Competency self-efficacy (CSE) in clinical nursing practice is necessitated to be attained by the undergraduate nursing students. It is a significant indicator of the work's acceptance and commitment to nursing roles. Self-efficacy in nursing experience enhances nursing student's abilities to achieve the clinical tasks independently, mainly in wide range field of care like Medical-Surgical Nursing. Some factors are affecting competency self-efficacy in the clinical nursing practice; the most evident factor is the nursing student’s impressions with their clinical learning environment (CLE). In the light of educational preparation for nursing undergraduates, the Faculties of Nursing emphasize to preserve a high quality of clinical learning environment for clinical nursing essentials. The clinical learning environment has an apparent function in building up students' confidence, and competency self-efficacy, particularly, during clinical skills achievement. The current paper aimed to determine undergraduate nursing student's satisfaction about the clinical learning environment and their competency self-efficacy, and then investigate the relationship between both variables. Thus, the study conducted through a descriptive, correlative research design with all nursing students who enrolled in third and fourth academic semesters (second year) during their clinical training in Medical-Surgical Nursing course, Faculty of Nursing, Alexandria University, Egypt. A triple-section questionnaire was used for data collection: First; nursing student’s sociodemographic profile, Second: Clinical Learning Environment Inventory (CLEI) which was constructed by Chan in 2002. Third: Nursing Competency Self Efficacy Scale (CSES) which was developed by Kennedy in 2013. The results showed that the undergraduate nursing students at Medical-Surgical training, Faculty of Nursing, Alexandria University, have a high satisfaction level about the clinical learning environment concerning all components of the clinical placement. As well, they have a high competency self-efficacy level in all nursing activities and tasks in the clinical training. Further, there is an obvious parallel correlation between nursing student's satisfaction about clinical learning environment and their competency self-efficacy which is significant. Conclusion & Recommendations: Adequate and planned arrangements should be settled in the nursing curricula for the nursing clinical training setting. Too, the clinical instructors should encourage students' trials to do difficult nursing tasks in a successful manner which tends to increase the student's competency self-efficacy. Further researches are required to investigate the factors affecting clinical learning environment satisfaction and competency self-efficacy among nursing students in their clinical placement. Additionally, another research is necessary about; developing an educational program about student's competency self-efficacy to guide nursing instructors in clinical training.

Abstract Background Data on student experience of the clinical learning environment in Ghana are scarce. We therefore aimed to assess students’ evaluation of the clinical learning environment and the factors that influence their learning experience.Methods This was a cross-sectional survey of 225 undergraduate nursing and midwifery students. We used the Clinical Learning Environment and Supervision + Nurse Teacher (CLES +T) evaluation scale to assess students’ experience of their clinical placement. The association between student demographic characteristics and clinical placement experience was determined using t-test or ANOVA.Results Most of the sampled students were Nurses (67%) and in the third year of training (81%). More students received supervision from a nurse (57%) during clinical placement and team supervision (67%) was the most common during clinical placement. Nursing students were more likely to rate their clinical experience better than midwifery students (p=0.002). Students who had increased contact with private supervisors were also more likely to rate their experience higher (p=0.002). Clinical experience was also rated higher by students who received successful supervision compared to those who had unsuccessful or team supervision (p=0.001).Conclusion Team supervision is high in health facilities where students undertake clinical placement in Ghana. Frequent contact with private supervisor and successful supervision are associated with better rating of clinical experience among Ghanaian undergraduate nursing and midwifery students.
