“…Students emphasized that they experienced death during their lived experiences of EoL care and realized how important nursing care was for the patients hospitalized in these clinics. As expressed in the relevant literature, students also emphasized that they understood the importance of knowledge and skills in nursing care to meet the needs of patients within the scope of holistic care (Jack et al, 2020; Lian et al, 2019; Valen et al, 2019).…”

Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine which barriers and motivators undergraduate nursing students perceived during their experience of providing end-of-life (EoL) care.Design and Methods: Qualitative phenomenological study leans on focus groups.The study was carried out with Zoom, a Web-based mobile video-conferencing application. Students were recruited from two universities in Turkey. Semistructured focus group interviews were conducted with 28 nursing students. The Heidegger phenomenological approach was adopted in this study.Findings: Three thematic categories and nine subcategories were determined. While the students stated that insufficient clinical experience, lack of knowledge, the inadequacy of communication techniques, and the insecurity of patients, relatives, and healthcare teams were barriers in EoL care, they stated they were motivated by witnessing the effect of nursing care on patients, integrating their theoretical knowledge into care, applying different communication techniques, and being positive role models of nurses in clinics.Practice Implications: As students were not adequately prepared to cope with clinical practices in EoL care, the nursing core curriculum needs revision in this regard. Providing adequate theoretical and clinical training in EoL care will help nursing students manage their emotions and provide high-quality care to patients and their families.

“…The first phase of the study explored students' experiences using an online survey. The survey results, although mainly positive, revealed that students often witness poor and ineffective care practices during their clinical placements (Jack et al, 2020). The second phase of the study further explored students' perceptions and experiences using narrative telephone interviews in which students were encouraged to talk in-depth about reporting poor care A convenience sample of 14 female nursing students, aged 18 -45, were recruited from three universities, one in Australia and two in the United Kingdom.…”

The two aims of this study were, first, to explore nursing students' experiences and perspectives of reporting poor care, and second, examine the process by which they raised concerns. HighlightsThis paper highlights the vital role that students play in highlighting poor nursing care practices.Nursing students are capable of reporting poor nursing care even when it might come at a cost to themselves.Clinical and university education teams must support students' development to be able to challenge poor nursing care practices.

“…11(p.ix) There are many reports of RNs' experiences of the clinical supervisor role, discussing the challenges encountered in managing the role. International works [14][15][16] invariably conclude there is a need for further effort in preparing clinical supervisors for their role: a phenomenon generating recent interest in Australia. 6,11,[17][18][19] Thus, actioning this recommendation should now become a priority.…”

Objective: To present and discuss options for upskilling registered nurse supervisors to ultimately improve the quality and consistency of nursing student placements.Background: Many studies have examined clinical learning in nursing, with evidence that student learning and registered nurse clinical supervision experiences can be improved. An independent review of nursing education in Australia confirmed gaps in the preparation and support of supervising registered nurses that may negatively impact students' learning. Study design and methods:This paper discusses contemporary insights around 1) the current situation in Australian nursing student clinical placements regarding learning, 2) registered nurse clinical supervisor experiences and 3) professional options for recognising role excellence, offered by Australian and international nursing and healthcare specialities.Discussion: Nursing students' placement experiences are at times sub-optimal. One way to improve learning experiences could be to offer clinical supervisors professional development programs. Now is the time to consider a certification process to recognise excellence in registered nurses' education capabilities and to better support students' clinical learning. Conclusion:Upskilling registered nurses for clinical supervision may be assisted through formal and informal education programs specific to the professional nursing context in Australia. Implications for research policy and practice:Upskilling registered nurse clinical supervisors should be a priority on the national agenda of improving students' clinical learning experiences. This commentary provides contemporary insights to the current situation regarding Australian students' clinical placement and supervisor experiences.
