Abstract:
There has been little research on what beginning yet competent clinical judgment "looks like" to preceptors, those individuals charged with evaluating the performance of new graduate nurses during the orientation/training process. This phenomenological study explicates how preceptors interpret clinical judgment in new nurses during their orientation to labor and delivery.
