NUR 280 CWE NURSING

CWE is designed to provide the eligible nursing student with additional clinical learning experience. The student nurse is paired with a registered nurse who serves in the role of a Clinical Teaching Associate (CTA). CWE may occur in a variety of clinical settings. In any setting, the clinical experience builds on nursing knowledge and skills previously attained and practiced in the students' course of study. All LBCC nursing policies and procedure will remain in effect for the student, just as they would in the core clinical experience. The major difference is that any task, skill or activity that the student would be required to perform in the presence of the core clinical faculty, the student may perform in the presence of the CTA. This course is designed to be individually tailored to the students' interests and individually identified outcomes. Students will identify course outcomes in collaboration with the CWE faculty.
