Abstract:
Nursing and medical educators are challenged by the education-practice gap and look for ways to smooth the transition and prepare our graduates for practice. Clinical practitioners believe that education does not keep pace with the demands in the clinical setting. This article highlights educational challenges, and-where relevant-will compare and contrast these challenges in nursing education with those taking place in medical education and will present creative admission requirements and teaching strategies.
