Nursing Preceptorship in Residential Aged Care Environments
2 day short course - 15 and 29 June 2009
More nursing students are engaging in clinical practice within Residential Aged Care facilities. In doing so, it is essential that preceptorships are available to provide these students with appropriate guidance and support.
Engaging students to convert their theoretical knowledge into patient centred care skills is a major issue for health professional and healthcare organisations alike. Students and new staff depend on experienced exceptional practitioners to provide a dynamic and engaging learning environment. Support systems such as Nursing Preceptors provide the right stimulus for role learning and acquisition of professional skills. This program offers Registered Nurses the skills they require to become effective Nursing Preceptors.
