Students' experiences of cooperation with nurse teacher during their clinical placements: An empirical study in a Western European context

Factors influencing the effectiveness of clinical learning environment in nursing education

“…Warne et al (2010) unambiguously confirmed a move from a group supervision approach to a one-to-one supervision orientation in Western European countries. A considerable amount of empirical evidence indicates the effectiveness of the individualized supervisory model on student learning experiences (Saarikoski, Leino-Kilpi, 2002;Saarikoski et al, 2008;Warne et al, 2010;Saarikoski et al, 2013). The second factor influencing students evaluation and assessment of clinical placements investigated in this study was the duration of the clinical training placement.…”

“…Consistent with this study (Antohe et al, 2015), our study concludes that an individualised supervisory relationship was associated with higher satisfaction in students. European researchers investigating student perceptions and experience of clinical placements in a Western European context (Saarikoski, Leino-Kilpi, 2002;Saarikoski et al, 2008;Warne et al, 2010;Saarikoski et al, 2013) unanimously reported that the individualized supervisory model was predominant. Warne et al (2010) unambiguously confirmed a move from a group supervision approach to a one-to-one supervision orientation in Western European countries.…”

“…Research focusing on clinical setting in the professional preparation of nurses in a European environment has primarily been influenced by the transformation of pre-service training of nurses in the European Union (EU) since the 1960s (Saarikoski et al, 2013). There is a broad range of international studies (Saarikoski et al, 2007;Warne et al, 2010;Antohe et al, 2015;Dobrowolska et al, 2016) developed and published as part of multiple European projects comparing clinical learning environment in relation to organizational aspects of clinical learning or clinical supervision.…”

“…2008; Warne et al, 2010;Saarikoski et al, 2013;Antohe et al, 2015) and partial local studies (Zanovitová et al, 2014), the construct of clinical learning environment was operationalized by the Clinical Learning Environment, Supervision and Nurse Teacher evaluation scale (CLES+T, Saarikoski et al, 2009). This instrument is one of the most commonly used tools to measure students' perceptions of clinical learning environment in European countries and has been validated in different empirical studies for clinical and research purposes.…”

Student nurse perceptions of supervision and clinical learning environment: a phenomenological research study

“…Por lo tanto, en todo el ámbito internacional debería reflejarse la visión cultural del entorno de aprendizaje clínico en el currículo de los estudios de enfermería (16,19,20) . En esta línea, el programa Erasmus ha facilitado la formación clínica de los estudiantes de enfermería en universidades de toda Europa (21) . Además, se ha identificado la necesidad de definir áreas de competencia en el contexto de la educación europea en enfermería (22) .…”
