- Specific Learning Objectives will be designed by the Clinical Nurse Supervisor in conjunction with the Course Coordinator.
- Learning Objectives are to be achieved by the student within a set time frame, usually between two and five clinical days.
- Failure to achieve the learning Objectives will result in the student failing the clinical component of the course.
- A copy of the Learning outcomes will be filed in the student’s records.
Note: The Accrediting Nurses Board will be contacted in the event a student fails to progress through their Clinical Assessment Tool to meet the requirements of assessment.
