Ask Yourself

Does my teaching institution have realistic expectations of the learning objectives in the clinical setting?

Are these clear to the hosting hospitals? Are these clear to the students? What does my teaching institution

contribute to the learning objectives of the clinical rotation?

What Is A Successful Clinical? How do you measure success in

clinicals? How are your clinical sites measuring a

successful clinical, or are they?

Page 21: 2013 nm ems educators conference

NecessitiesAffective Domain Are you asking your

students if they know when to call the on call instructor?

Do your students know how to resolve issues independently and notify instructors as needed?

Do your clinical sites have appropriate tools necessary for documentation regarding behavioral issues? Are they utilized?

Page 22: 2013 nm ems educators conference

If the answer is no

What can we collectively do to alleviate issues?

How Objective Are the Clinical Evaluation Forms?

Page 24: 2013 nm ems educators conference

Are There Alternatives?

Page 25: 2013 nm ems educators conference

Clinical Instructors

Is their only function a PR role (here is my face and institution)?

Are they expected to interact with staff, and patient’s or only the students and charge nurse?

Are there any changes you would like to see at the clinical sites in regards to the clinical instructor/ on call staff?

Page 26: 2013 nm ems educators conference

New Process For Clinical Instructors Personally fill out Affective Domain form

(with the Preceptor) with measurable yes/ no questions (Did the student introduce themselves, use “please” and “thank you” did they wash their hands?)

Personally fill out Affective Domain (with a patient), same AD, Yes/No questions.
