Student Nurse in the Hospital

A Hospital Student Nurse is a vital component in the curricula of pre-registration nursing courses and provides student nurses with the opportunity to combine cognitive, psychomotor, and affective skills. Various studies have suggested that not all practice settings are able to provide nursing students with a positive learning environment. In order to maximize nursing students’ clinical learning outcomes, there is a need to examine the clinical learning environment. The purpose of this study was to assess pre-registration nursing students’ perceptions of hospital learning environments during clinical field placement. Quantitative and qualitative methodology was used.

Student nurses are learning in the school for them to perform like a professional nurse in the hospital... It is not easy to study everything what we are doing in the hospital because we are dealing the life of the nurse... We have to train harder to be efficient in our work... We have to go thru lecturing of a Clinical Instructor, then demonstrating the things he/she taught us... But it is still different from the school to hospital... We are facing a dummy person not a real person that we can realize that we are in the right procedure... So even if we are handling a dummy patient in the school, we are still being careful and concentrate for us to be better in the real situation... Tricky but fun!! and relief if at the end of your duty, you have done something good to others and helping them... It is so grateful...
