EFFECT OF PRECEPTORSHIP ON CLINICAL COMPETENCIES IN NOVICE NURSING STUDENTS
Prof Wilma Valsalan, Ms Sinta D Mathew
Abstract :
First year nursing students’ interface with patients within a few months of enrolment and clinical competency is expected from them right from the beginning, resulting in stress. Preceptorship is a one–on–one clinical education model in which preceptees (novices) learn to work in the practice discipline, under guidance of their preceptors (experts) within a fixed time frame. Hence the investigators conducted a quasi–experimental study on effect of Preceptorship on selected clinical competencies in students of First Year BSc Nursing. Twenty two students of First year BSc Nursing were preceptored for a clinical posting of 2 weeks. The Preceptors were 9 Registered nurses, pursuing post graduate studies in the same college. Majority of students had better Clinical Competencies, with maximal improvements seen in competencies of communication skills and professional conduct. The difference in the mean competency scores before & after Preceptorship is statistically significant tcal (9.90) > t0.01(2.83).
