    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Education
    • Clinical Skill Development

    Background:

    • Nurse educators commonly provide written classroom objectives.
    • Clinical expectations are often not clearly communicated to nursing students before clinical experiences.
    • Existing communication methods for clinical expectations lead to varied student interpretations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and describe a novel written method for communicating clinical expectations to student nurses.
    • To address the problem of mixed interpretations regarding clinical expectations.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed a written method correlating clinical expectations with classroom content and course objectives.
    • Utilized the nursing process as a framework to level expectations by increasing complexity.
    • Distributed written leveled expectations to student nurses weekly.

    Main Results:

    • The developed method provides a clear, structured way to communicate clinical expectations.
    • Weekly distribution of leveled expectations facilitates understanding.
    • Both students and faculty reported enhanced clinical experiences.

    Conclusions:

    • A written, leveled approach to communicating clinical expectations improves clarity for student nurses.
    • This method effectively bridges classroom learning with clinical practice.
    • Implementation of this strategy enhances the overall quality of clinical nursing education.
