Course description
This course is the 5th of 6 courses with the aim of developing the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia National Competency Standards for registered nursing students, in addition to students displaying UQ graduate attributes in their practice. During the preceptored clinical experiences students should have an opportunity to apply the theoretical concepts learned in foundations of nursing practice in the previous 4 semesters as well as revise previously learned skills with either their clinical lecturer or their preceptor & will develop new skills as the opportunity arises in their practice setting. The focus will be nursing care in Community, Aged Care, Acute Care, Rural, Palliative, Indigenous, Paediatrics or Mental Health practice settings & appreciation of a registered nurse's role in a selected nursing practice area.
