Student Placements

Ongoing restructuring within the health care system juxtaposed with mandated increased seats in nursing programs have taxed traditional clinical practice settings beyond their capacity. In the search for suitable clinical placements to meet learning objectives and fulfill required clinical hours, nursing program administrators are turning to various non-traditional settings. Yet limited research exists to describe the prevalence and types of 'innovative' clinical placements (ICPs) or the nature and quality of student learning in such settings. Described in this article are findings from a national survey of Canadian baccalaureate nursing programs completed by nurse educators and clinical placement coordinators regarding nursing student placements within ICPs. Participant survey responses provide a national snap-shot of ICPs, along with perspectives on pedagogy, strengths and weaknesses, capacity and sustainability issues, and ethical, legal and academic considerations associated with student placements in these settings.

Different Cultures

Cultural competency is a national healthcare goal for baccalaureate nursing programs. Students care for patients from diverse populations with varying cultural backgrounds. In recent years, simulation has enabled educators to impact students’ worldview by introducing them to different perspectives that exist within different cultures. Simulation provides opportunities that incorporate exposure to religious relics, dietary restrictions, language concerns, family dynamics, and communication skills in a clinical environment. These concepts are essential to nursing education and simulation technology allow students to become aware of humanistic components of caring.
