Abstract:
This study focused on identifying the best clinical learning model that would support nursing practice readiness following each immersion experience. Practicum preceptors completed surveys in which evaluated student preparation/readiness by assessing clinical knowledge, technical skills, critical thinking, communication, professionalism, management of responsibilities, and overall performance. The study results yielded no statistical significance when comparing both models. Future research is needed to analyze the impact of clinical hours offered in the senior immersion experience along with the curriculum content differences among various models of clinical experiences in undergraduate nursing programs to ensure practice readiness of nursing graduates.
