STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY
FOR SAFE CLINICAL PRACTICE
Guidelines In Determining Student Clinical Grade
The clinical component of each nursing course provides nursing students with the opportunity to apply nursing
principles in a practice setting. This is an essential skill for ever
y competent practitioner of nursing.
The four overriding criteria for a satisfactory passing grade in the clinical area are:
1.
Using the steps of the nursing process for scientific problem solving.
2.
Maintaining medical and surgical asepsis.
3.
Maintai
ning physical safety.
4.
Maintaining psychological safety.
The critical behavior for evaluating student performance is the student’s
ability to make clinical
decisions for
safe patient care
. Such decision making reflects the ability of nursing students to
apply nursing principles in a
variety of situations. Meeting these criteria constitutes competent performance and a satisfactory passing grade.
When a student jeopardizes patient care by violating one of these principles, it shall constitute a failure
fo
r that clinical day.* A student fails a course when repeated failures occur. The specific standard for
failure in each course is:
1.
NUR101
Three (3)
failed clinical days.
5.
NUR246
Two (2) failed clinical days.
2.
NUR124
Two (2)
failed
clinical days.
6.
NUR248
Two (2) failed clinical days.
3.
NUR133
Two (2)
failed clinical days.
7.
NUR240
Two (2) failed clinical days.
4.
NUR136
Two (2)
failed clinical days.
*Please note that a failed clinical evaluation will constitu
te a failed clinical day.
Student’s responsibilities in this situation include:
1.
Taking responsibility for one’s own actions.
2.
Identify own error. Ask for assistance.
3. Develop and utilize strategies to assist in clinical decision maki
ng.

NURSE’S THOUGHTS AND
FEELINGS CONCERNING
THE INTERACTION
ANALYSIS OF THE INTERACTION
Do you still have thoughts
about harming yourself?
(Sitting facing t
he client;
looking directly at client)
Not really. I still feel sad, but
I don’t want to die. (Looking
at hands in lap.)
Felt a little uncomfortable.
Always a hard question to ask.
Therapeutic.
Asking a direct question
about suicidal intent.
Tell me w
hat you were feeling
before you took all the pills the
other night. (Still using
SOLER techniques of active
listening.)
I was just so angry! To think
that my husband wants a
divorce now that he has a
good job. I worked hard to
put him through college.
(Fists clenched. Face and
neck reddened.)
Beginning to feel more
comfortable. Client seems
willing to talk and I think she
trusts me.
Therapeutic.
Exploring. Delving further
into the experience.
You wanted to hurt him
because you felt betrayed.
(SOL
ER)
Yes! If I died, maybe he’d
realize that he loved me more
than that other woman. (Tears
starting to well up in her
eyes.)
Starting to feel sorry for her.
Therapeutic.
Attempting to translate
words into feelings.
Seems like a pretty drastic way
to g
et your point across.
(Small frown.)
I know. It was a stupid thing
to do. (Wiping eyes.)
Trying hard to remain
objective.
Non therapeutic.
Sounds disapproving.
Better to have pursued her feelings.
How are you feeling about the
situation now? (SOLER)
I don’t know. I still love him.
I want him to come home. I
don’t want him to marry her.
(Starting to cry again.)
Wishing there was an easy way
to help relieve some of her
pain.
Therapeutic.
Focusing on her feelings.
Yes, I can understand that you
w
ould like things to be the way
they were before. (Offer client
a tissue.)
(Silence. Continues to cry
softly.)
I’m starting to feel some anger
toward her husband.
Sometimes it’s so hard to
remain objective!
Therapeutic.
Conveying empathy.
What do you t
hink are the
chances of your getting back
together? (SOLER)
None. He’s refused marriage
counseling. He’s already
moved in with her. He says
it’s over. (Wipes tears.
Looks directly at nurse.)
Relieved to know that she isn’t
using denial about the real
ity of
the situation.
Therapeutic.
Reflecting. Seeking client’s
perception of the situation.
So how are you preparing to
deal with this inevitable
outcome? (SOLER)
I’m going to do the things we
talked about: join a divorced
women’s support group;
incre
ase my job hours to full
-
time; do some volunteer work;
and call the suicide hot line if
I feel like taking pills again.
(Looks directly at nurse.
Smiles.)
Positive feeling to know that
she remembers what we
discussed earlier and plans to
follow through.
Therapeutic.
Formulating a plan of action.
It won’t be easy. But you have
come a long way, and I feel
you have gained strength in
your ability to cope. (Standing.
Looking at client. Smiling.)
Yes, I know I will have hard
times. But I also know I ha
ve
support, and I want to go on
with my life and be happy
again. (Standing, smiling at
nurse.)
Feeling confident that the
session has gone well; hopeful
that the client will succeed in
what she wants to do with her
life.
Therapeutic.
Presenting reality
.
Table from
–
Townsend, M. (2006), Psychiatric mental health nursing (5
th
ed.). (p. 127). Philadelphia, PA: F.A. Davis
SOLER:
S
–
Sit squarely facing the client. This gives the message that the nurse is there to listen and is interested in what the
client has to say.
O
–
Observe an open posture. Posture is considered “open” when arms and legs remain uncrossed. This suggests that the nurse is
“open” to
what the client has to say. With a “closed” position, the nurse can convey
a somewhat defensive stance, possibly invoking a similar response in the client.
L
–
Lean forward toward the client. This conveys to the client that you are involved in the interaction, interested in what is b
eing said, and
making a sincer
e effort to be attentive.
E
–
Establish eye contact. Eye contact, intermittently directed, is another behavior that conveys the nurse’s involvement and wi
llingness to
listen to what the client has to say. The absence of eye contact or the
constant shifting of eye contact elsewhere in the environment gives the message that the nurse is not really interested in wh
at is being said.
NOTE:
Ensure that eye contact conveys warmth and is accompanied by smiling and intermit
tent nodding of the head, and does not come
across as staring or glaring, which can create intense discomfort in the client.
R
–
Relax. Whether sitting or standing during the interaction, the nurse should communicate a sense of being relaxed
and comfortable with the
client. Restlessness and fidgetiness communicate a lack of interest and may convey a feeling of discomfort that is likely to
be transferred to the client.

CRITICA
L THINKING RUBRIC TO ANALYZE THE APPLICATION OF
NURSING PROCESS IN STUDENT NURSING CARE PLANS
PURPOSE OF THE RUBRIC
This critical thinking rubric is designed to analyze the application of nursing process in student
nursing care plans and can be used by
both faculty and students.
COMPONENTS OF THE RUBRIC
Each criterion contains performance criteria to demonstrate critical thinking for each step of
the nursing process used in the development of a nursing care plan. The performance criteria
describe beha
viors and traits that are linked to a level of performance. There are four levels of
performance. The levels of performance represent the degrees in which critical thinking is
applied to accomplish the step in care planning. Level one is a beginner leve
l of performance
that reflects an absence of critical thinking whereas level four represents well developed
critical thinking skills that reflect the students ability to perform higher
-
ordered learning.
USING THE RUBRIC
Students
Students can use the rub
ric to facilitate nursing care plan preparation and development. The
emphasis on systematicity and truth seeking behaviors will facilitate college level students
progress in critical thinking skills. Prior to submission for faculty review, the student wi
ll be
able to perform a self
-
assessment to identify levels of performance in each of the steps of
nursing process and identify areas for future development. The student's ability to identify
with level three and level four performances will enhance their
self
-
confidence in the
reasoning abilities and develop their disposition to critical thinking.
Grading of Care Plan:
The care plan is only graded in whole numbers. The minimum acceptable score is 28/40. The
student will be asked to resubmit or remediat
e the care plan if any section on the rubric
receives a score of less than 2. The care plan will be remediated until an acceptable score is
achieved.

reflect the coordination of care appropriate to the patient.
3:
The nursing diagno
ses are evaluated individually and are ranked in
priority order and reflect a
significant amount of coordination of care appropriate to the patient.
2:
The nursing diagnoses are evaluated individually and are ranked in a priority order that
indicates fl
awed decision making.
1:
The nursing diagnoses are evaluated individually against a framework that does not facilitate
prioritization of nursing diagnoses.
DIAGNOSES
31
4:
The nursing diagnoses/collaborative problems selected reflect the accurate interpre
tation of
the subjective and objective data analyzed. Subjective and objective data are listed
appropriately as supporting data for the nursing diagnosis. All nursing diagnoses use
NANDA terminology. All
actual
nursing diagnoses use 3 part statements (P
ES format).
Risk nursing diagnosis use 2 part statements and syndrome diagnoses use 1 part statements.
3:
The nursing diagnoses selected reflect the adequate interpretation of the subjective and
objective data analyzed but are not always the best choice
from the possible diagnoses that
could be interpreted from the data. PES format is used correctly.
2:
The nursing diagnoses selected reflect the inadequate interpretation of the subjective and
objective data analyzed and result in a flawed plan of care.
PES format is not always
complete or used correctly.
1:
The nursing diagnoses selected reflect that no effort to interpret information was applied
resulting in a flawed plan of care. PES format is usually not complete or used correctly.
THE FOLLOWING
CRITERIA ARE SUBSETS OF CRITERIA ESTABLISHED IN THE
NURSING DIAGNOSIS OF THE RUBRIC. IF THE CARE PLAN RECEIVES A SCORE OF
"2" OR BELOW, THE NEXT FOUR CRITERIA (OUTCOME CRITERIA,
INTERVENTIONS, RATIONALE, EVALUATION) SHOULD NOT BE SCORED.
OUTCOME CRITERI
A
4:
Measurable criteria are identified all of the time and contain verb and time element. The
criteria identified generally are individualized to the patient and will lead to the control of the
related factors that contribute to the nursing diagnosis.
3:
Most of the outcome criteria are measurable and are identified to achieve goals will lead to
the resolution or control of the related factors that contribute to the nursing diagnosis.
2:
Some of the outcome criteria are measurable and are identified t
o achieve goals will lead to
the resolution or control of the related factors that contribute to the nursing diagnosis but are
poorly developed.
1:
Some of the outcome criteria identified to achieve goals will lead to the resolution or control
of the rela
ted factors that contribute to the nursing diagnosis purely by coincidence.
INTERVENTIONS
32
4:
Specific interventions can easily be linked to specific outcomes. The interventions are
realistic and appropriate to the patient's current status.
3:
Spec
ific interventions can be linked to specific outcomes. The interventions are realistic and
usually appropriate to the patient's current status.
2:
Interventions developed can be linked to specific outcomes but may be independent. The
interventions may n
ot be realistic and appropriate to the patient's current status.
1:
Interventions developed are incomplete. Inappropriate interventions may be included in the
plan of care.
RATIONALE
4:
Rationales for each intervention contain comprehensive scientific
reasoning that succinctly
identifies why the intervention was selected.
3:
Rationales for each intervention usually explain the intervention adequately and justify its
inclusion.
2:
Rationales for each intervention do not explain the intervention adequat
ely and consequently
its inclusion can not be justified.
1:
Rationales for each intervention when included do not attempt to explain the intervention and
consequently its inclusion can not be justified.
EVALUATION
4:
The appropriate subjective and object
ive data is selected through review of the interventions
related to ongoing assessment. The subjective and objective data that measures the outcome
is collected and analyzed correctly.
3:
The appropriate subjective and objective data is selected most of
the time, through review of
the interventions related to ongoing assessment that reflects adequate analysis.
2:
The appropriate subjective and objective data is selected some of the time, perhaps through
review of the interventions related to ongoing asse
ssment or perhaps the data was collected
coincidentally. Subjective and objective data is collected most of the time, but there appears
to be no pattern to the data collection and it is rarely with consideration of the outcomes that
are required to be mea
sured.
1:
Subjective and objective data is selected to reflect evaluation without consideration of the
outcome criteria. Subjective and objective data may or may not be collected. Data collection
is not subjected to analysis.
