Evaluation of the clinical learning environment is essential because it can improve the success of students undergoing clinical practice in hospitals. With this evaluation, the clinical learning environment will be better and have an impact on nursing institutions that can prepare good quality graduate students. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical learning environment of nursing profession students in hospitals. The research design used descriptive and involved 229 professional nursing students consisting of 23 and 24 batches of Nursing at the University of Jember, which were collected by using total sampling. The results of the evaluation of the clinical learning environment of professional nurses in hospitals showed an average score of 132.7 from the maximum score 170. Every indicator has an average value and the percentage of achievement starting from the highest to the lowest; the relationship of supervision (clinical supervisor or clinical instructor) with an average of 31.10 (77.75%), leadership style of the inpatient ward manajer with an average of 15, 41 (77.05%), the role of nurse lecturers (academic lecturers) with an average of 34.02 (75.60%), nursing service places with an average of 15.05 (75.25%) and an atmosphere of learning strategies with an average of 33.25 (73.25) and overall student satisfaction obtained an average value of 3.92 (78.40%). The results of the study show that nursing students is still not fully satisfied toward clinical learning environment. It must be improved to provide a suitable clinical learning environment so that students feel satisfied and clinical competence can be achieved.

In the previous studies, it was found that many nursing students have the highest satisfaction towards clinical learning environment (CLE). CLE has an impact on nursing students in preparing them in terms of knowledge and providing quality care for patients. The objective of this study was to determine the level of satisfaction among nursing students in the Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre (UKMMC) towards CLE. A purposive sampling technique was used in quantitative and cross-sectional descriptive design. Ninety-three of Year 1 to Year 4 nursing students participated by answering modified self-reported Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision and Nurse Teacher (CLES + T) scale questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of three sections; sociodemographic, clinical placement and five dimensions of satisfaction towards CLE (pedagogical atmosphere, leadership style of the head nurse, premises of nursing in the ward, preceptor relationship and role of the preceptor). In medical ward, 51.6% of nursing students had high satisfaction towards CLE and 48.4% reported to have low satisfaction. Whereas for surgical, orthopaedic, homecare and critical area wards reported to have 50% for both high and low satisfaction towards CLE. The relationship between year of study, gender and level of satisfaction towards CLE among nursing students in UKMMC were statistically not significant (p = 0.715, p = 0.139). Among the five dimensions of satisfaction towards CLE, leadership style of the head nurse was the highest (72.0%) and the lowest (30.1%) was from pedagogical atmosphere. This study showed that regardless of specific clinical placement for the nursing students, their satisfaction towards CLE were almost similar and the leadership style of the head nurse had the highest impact. Perhaps, the impact of involvement of the head nurse in the clinical teaching should be explored further in the future.

Introduction: Clinical learning environment placements provide opportunities for students to develop their skills, socialize to the profession and bridge the gap between academic and workplace learning. This study was conducted to investigate Saudi nursing students’ perceptions of their clinical learning environment and supervision in the hospital setting. Methods: A sample of 90 final year student nurses completing practicums at a tertiary hospital in Riyadh was included in this cross-sectional study utilizing the Clinical Learning Environment and Supervision plus Nurse Teacher scale. Results: Overall, students perceived their clinical learning environment positively. Among sub-scores, that for the leadership style of ward manager was the highest. Supervision types, nursing-teacher teacher-visit frequency and grade point average positively and significantly impacted student’s perceptions, while university type and practicum duration did not. Conclusion: Students confirmed the ward manager’s leadership style as the most significant influencing their perceptions. However, the nursing teacher’s role had the lowest mean score, suggesting the need for its enhancement and clarification and indicating the need for better communication and collaboration between nursing schools and the clinical training hospital.

Nurse practice – clinical learning environment and student satisfaction The purpose of this study was to investigate nursing students’ satisfaction with the clinical learning environment during clinical practice. A questionnaire was distributed to nursing students at a university (N=250) in Norway. Student satisfaction, task orientation, pedagogical atmosphere, supervisory relationship, and the premises of nursing on the ward were measured. Of the 250 students invited, 163 (66 %) completed the survey. Nursing students were largely satisfied with their clinical placement experiences, but they were more satisfied with hospital placements than home care placements. Supervision more than once a week and having one supervisor was important for student satisfaction. Students’ relationship with their supervisors was strongest associated with satisfaction with their clinical placements. Supervisors play an important role in nursing students’ satisfaction with their clinical practice, with results indicating that this should be emphasized in the development of nursing education. The results indicate that nursing guidance skills should be strengthened to ensure the quality of clinical placements in nursing education.
