Student Clinical Agency(ies)

Purpose of Clinical Performance Review

The purpose of the Clinical Performance Review is to evaluate student’s progress towards meeting each clinical objective. The student is expected to demonstrate competencies in each course by meeting the clinical objective specified in the course outline and syllabus. Students are expected to progress in performance as they advance through each course and the program.

The following criteria, based on the nursing process, will form the guidelines for the student’s performance in all client-care situations:

1. Utilize learned scientific and behavioral principles to identify needs of adult patients experiencing common health stressors with progressive ability.

2. Utilize the nursing process in meeting the priority needs of the patient with progressive ability. Emphasis is to be placed on priority nursing diagnoses, including physiological needs, ego integrity and teaching/learning.

3. Perform all learned nursing skills (including medication administration) safely and therapeutically under supervision of an instructor with progressive ability.

4. Function as an accountable member of the health care team.

Explanation of Rating Scale

(S) Satisfactory = Clinical performance is safe and student adequately demonstrates application of the nursing process, required skills, and expected synthesis of learning appropriate to level in the program.

(U) Unsatisfactory = Clinical performance is unsafe and inadequately demonstrates application of the nursing process, required skills, and expected synthesis of learning appropriate to level in the program.

Clinical instructors will provide weekly written feedback for clinical objective(s).

Accomplishment of the clinical objectives will be evaluated at midterm and final conferences. When the student successfully meets the clinical objectives of the course, a satisfactory (S) grade will be given. When a student is unsatisfactory at meeting the clinical objectives, a conference will be scheduled with the faculty. The student and faculty will develop a clinical contract that outlines activities to assist the student to correct the identified deficiencies.
