Assessment of Student Learning:
In order to pass NUR 212L 347L, the student must achieve the following:
1. An overall course grade of 78% or higher.
2. A final evaluation score of three (3) or higher in all elements of the Clinical Evaluation tool;
students who do not achieve a three (3) in all elements of the Clinical Evaluation will receive
an F for the course regardless of course points achieved.
3. Satisfactory completion of a math exam with at least 90%; students who do not achieve 90% on
the math exam cannot pass medications and will be unable to receive three (3) on the Clinical
Evaluation Tool.
Effective Fall 2012
4. Completion of all required clinical requirements, including, but not limited to, clinical hours, patient
education brochure, care plans, skills check offs, simulation experiences, clinical portfolio, the math
exam and additional assignments required by clinical faculty.
5. Satisfactory demonstration of selected skills in laboratory, simulation, and clinical experiences.
Various activities will be used to assess student learning and mastery of content across the semester.
These include simulations, clinical experiences, care plans, an evidence based practice project, a
clinical portfolio, skills check offs, and other assignments required by clinical faculty. Weighting of
these activities and calculation of the course grade is as follows:
Evaluation Tool Points
Clinical portfolio= 5 points
Math exam (90% required in order to pass meds & continue in clinical course)= 5 points
Care plans (complete 3 and best 2 scores recorded, 20 points each)= 40 points
Leadership Experience= 5 points
Simulations/Skills preparation= 25 points
Evidence Based Practice= 15 points
Overall Professionalism= 5 points
Total= 100 points
Grading System
Grades will be calculated from the assessments above, and grades posted according to the standard
School of Nursing grading scale:
A = 93-100 points
B = 84-92 points
C = 78-83 points
F = below 78 points
Clinical Hours
1. At least 180 clinical hours.
2. All clinical, lab, simulation, prep work, case studies, and glucometer training must be completed in
order to complete the minimal number of required clinical hours.
3. NUR 212L 347L Clinical is 10 hours on assigned day with any exceptions noted in the Lab and
Simulation Schedule. Students should plan on clinical through December 1, 2014.
4. Students are expected to attend all assigned lab and simulation experiences outlined in the Lab
and Simulation Schedule.
5. Students are expected to complete any additional experiences as assigned.
Assignments
Effective Fall 2012
Assignment due dates are printed on the clinical schedule or will be directed by the clinical faculty.
Late assignments will not be accepted unless prior arrangements have been made with the faculty.
All assignments are to be completed by each student individually without the help of others unless
specifically identified as a group project. Assignments include written paperwork, the math exam, the
portfolio, quizzes, the evidence based practice project, simulation preparation and any other
assignments.
Written paperwork, including nursing care plans
All clinical written assignments must be satisfactorily completed to receive a passing grade nursing
212L 347L; the best three scores of complete care plans will be recorded. It is expected that students
will complete clinical paperwork weekly unless otherwise notified by their faculty. Faculty will direct
you regarding due dates and times.
Math exam
The first attempt for the math exam will be given in class and must be passed by week three of the
semester. A score of 90% or greater in two (2) attempts is passing. Failure to pass the exam with
90% on the first attempt will result in structured remediation. If the exam is not passed after
two (2) attempts, the student is not permitted to pass medications in the course and, therefore, unable
to achieve the ability to score “3” or higher on the clinical competence and/or the critical thinking
strand of the clinical evaluation. This will result in failure of NUR 212L 347L.
Student Clinical Portfolio
Maintaining and updating your Student Clinical Portfolio is a clinical requirement beginning in NUR
205 225, continues in NUR 212L 347L and will continue each semester throughout the Nursing
Program. Your Student Clinical Portfolio contains a table of contents, student health and clinical
requirements, clinical agency orientation forms, skills list, goals for clinical experiences, clinical
evaluations, and a portfolio review form. Students are encouraged to complete a resume for review.
Your portfolio will be reviewed at the beginning and end of the semester. The end of semester review
is what will be evaluated for your course grade; everything must be included and up to date to receive
the points. The portfolio is due with your final self-clinical evaluation. Students with incomplete
portfolios will receive zero points. See checklist for what needs to be included.
Online quizzes
There will be 3 Mosby Skills or Potter online course quizzes required. See the clinical schedule for
specific assignments and due dates. Quizzes are due at 11:59 pm Arizona Time on the date they
are due or the student will receive a zero for that assignment. Please submit your score to the
assignment tool in BBLearn; faculty will finalize the score after item analysis. Quizzes are located on
the Evolve website: https://evolve.elsevier.com/staticPages/index.html.
Evidence Based Practice Project
See instructions and rubric below.
Simulation preparation
Preparation for all simulation scenarios is expected and is due immediately following the simulation
scenario. You will be provided with preparation responsibilities based on your role for the specific
scenario. Grading consists of preparation, participation in the scenario, participation in debriefing, and
all documentation (narrative notes, MARs, care plans, etc.). Students may also be required to
complete an incident report. See the simulation rubric.
Other assignments
Effective Fall 2012
Students are required to complete any additional assignments as designated by their clinical faculty,
including glucometer testing. Failure to do so will result in paperwork not being accepted. In addition,
students may be awarded scores lower than three (3) on the clinical practice and prevention,
communication, critical reasoning, and professionalism and professional values sections of the
clinical evaluation form and, therefore, will not pass clinical. Finally, clinical and agency evaluations
are expected to be completed at the end of the semester. Your professional, constructive feedback is
appreciated.
Course Expectations
Nursing Care
We are looking for growth throughout the semester. The nursing care you provide to your assigned
patient(s) will be evaluated each week in view of the course objectives. Your assessment, nursing
diagnoses, planning, implementation, and evaluation of nursing care (the nursing process) will be
self-evaluated and faculty-evaluated each week. If your nursing care is not satisfactory, the clinical
instructor will advise you. Strategies for improvement of your nursing care will be discussed. Failure
to improve identified areas of concern documented in your clinical paperwork may result in
failure of the clinical component of NUR 212L 347L. This means that if your instructor writes a
comment in your clinical paperwork that suggests “add this” or “need to work on this” that we expect
you to make the changes AND improve upon that level of performance for the duration of the
semester. Students are expected to maintain and improve upon previously learned competencies. If
there is a need for improvement, a written contract may be implemented delineating the areas for
improvement.
Professionalism
Professional behavior is expected in all aspects of NUR 212L 347L. Professionalism includes
behaviors addressed in the ANA Code of Ethics, the Arizona State Board of Nursing Unprofessional
Conduct, Unfitness to Practice Nursing, Department of Nursing Undergraduate Student Handbook
(current edition) and Northern Arizona University Student Handbook (current edition). Unsafe or
unprofessional conduct will constitute failure of NUR 212L 347L e.g. medication errors, failure
to identify critical situations, physical or mental impairment, etc. Please note it is possible to
fail NUR 212L 347L at any point during the semester for unsafe or unprofessional conduct
Nursing Supplies:
As part of being prepared for clinical, students must bring a pair of bandage scissors, a stethoscope,
a black pen, a penlight, a calculator and a watch with a second hand. Please see the handbook for
further information.
Professional Appearance in the Clinical Setting:
Please review the Uniform Policy in the NAU Student Handbook:
http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/~nurse-p/docs/BSN_Handbook.pdf
Students may wear polo shirts to simulation lab. Scrubs are required at the clinical setting. In addition,
students should be clean-shaven or facial hair neatly groomed and trimmed.
Cell Phones:
Cell phones are not permitted in the patient care areas. Cell phones should be turned off during
all clinical experiences and put away in backpacks and purses unless otherwise directed. Nonemergency cell phone use is not allowed during the clinical shift unless you are off of the floor on
break. If you expect an emergency call (such as a sick child), you must get your instructor’s approval
before you may carry the phone, and then it must be on vibrate mode. Make sure day cares, schools,
Effective Fall 2012
etc. know how to reach you on clinical days. Please check with your instructor regarding the use of
cell phone apps to look up medications and labs.
Confidentiality
Students must maintain patient confidentiality at all times. No discussion regarding patients is
acceptable outside the classroom or clinical setting. Do not refer to the patient by name in clinical
conferences or in the classroom.
You may not remove from the clinical setting ANY part of a medical record even if staff tell you “this is
extra” and “you just have to cross out their name” (i.e. medication administration record back-up
copies). Patient records are not to be photocopied under ANY circumstances. These forms contain
other identifying information on them and therefore must stay in the facility to avoid violating patient
confidentiality. Students must use caution regarding what is said in halls, elevators, bathrooms and
the cafeteria.
Failure to adhere to this policy may result in removal from the clinical experience, the course, and/or
referral in accordance with the communication of concerns process in the NAU School of Nursing
Student Handbook.
See the current NAU School of Nursing Student Handbook for additional information
http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/~nurse-p/docs/BSN_Handbook.pdf
Course policies
Policies and guidelines in the NUR 212L 347L course syllabus apply to all aspects of this course. You
are responsible for review and compliance with NUR 212L 347L, NAU School of Nursing, and NAU
policies. You are also responsible for review and adherence to the professional standards and rules
of the Arizona Nurse Practice Act, the State Board of Nursing, and the American Nurses’ Association
Code of Ethics. For full descriptions of policies, visit these websites:

ntents/Volume82003/No3Sept2003/PatientSafety.aspx
Retests/makeup tests:
Exams are not given in NUR 212L 347L with the exception of the math exam. A second attempt of
the math exam, with a different set of calculations, is permitted. Make up tests may be arranged for
valid reasons such as illness or personal/family emergencies. Arrangements to take a make-up exam
must be made with the faculty within one week of the exam.
Attendance Policy
Attendance of all on-campus and off- campus clinical experiences is required for students to be able
to achieve clinical competencies. Should an absence be unavoidable, notification of faculty via phone
(not text or email) must be done at least 1 hour prior to the start of the clinical day. Students are
Effective Fall 2012
considered tardy if they arrive even one minute after the beginning of clinical. Tardiness of more than
30 minutes will be considered a clinical absence. Tardiness or absence without faculty notification
may result in dismissal for the clinical day or other consequences as determined by faculty. Please
note: there may not be opportunities to make up missed clinical hours and faculty are not required to
make arrangements for additional clinical hours. Additional policies:
Clinical schedules are posted in advance so students can arrange work, other classes, and personal
matters.
Students are expected to be in the clinical area at designated times unless contagious or if there has
been a catastrophic life event. Clinical absence may result in failure to meet course objectives and,
therefore, failure of NUR 212L 347L. Notification must be made by phone (not text or email); we do
not have access to e-mail at the clinical sites. Students will be expected to consult faculty about
making up any missed clinical days. There are no “free” days off. Missing more than 10% of clinical
hours will result in clinical failure.
Failure to notify faculty of absence from clinical (including hospital experiences, lab, simulation, and
pre/post conference) prior to missing or being late will be considered unprofessional conduct and will
be handled as such. Being a no call/no show to clinical, lab
or simulation is a serious offense and will result in writing a ten page research paper about the
impact of no call/no show absences on patient care and morale in the work setting. At least two
citations are required, one being a research article. In addition, students are in danger of receiving
scores lower than three (3) on the professionalism and professional values and communication
section of the clinical evaluation form and, therefore, will not pass clinical. Second offenses will result
in failure of clinical.
Students are expected to be punctual to all clinical experiences, including post-conference. Students
are expected to arrange travel to avoid tardiness. Extenuating circumstances will be evaluated on a
case by case basis. More than one tardy will result in completion of a 2 page paper regarding the
impact of tardiness on patient care and staff morale with a minimum of two references, one being a
research article. If you are tardy following this assignment, you will be sent home from clinical and
required to meet with an advisor. In addition, students may be awarded scores lower than three (3) on
the professionalism and professional values and communication sections of the clinical evaluation
form and, therefore, will not pass clinical.
In case of inclement weather where you feel that you are in jeopardy traveling on snowy or icy roads,
call or page your clinical instructor before you are scheduled to be in the clinical area as described
above.
While in the clinical setting, you may accompany your patient to PT, OT, or Speech therapy without
informing your instructor. Make sure the RN you are working with knows where you are. Please
contact your instructor if you have the opportunity to accompany your patient to the cath lab, the
operating room, or any other procedural area. Your clinical faculty AND your staff nurse need to
know when you take a break (you are allowed one 15 minute break for each 4 hours and one 30
minute break for lunch/supper; you may not combine breaks to have an hour lunch/supper break).
You may not leave the facility for a break as you may need to be available if something were to
happen to your patient. Not being available could result in your patient not receiving care in a timely
fashion and could be construed as patient abandonment (translation – unsafe practice!). You will also
need to report off to your staff nurse and instructor at the end of your clinical shift. As the instructors
cannot leave the building until all students have left, failure to report off to the staff nurse AND clinical
faculty will also be viewed as unsafe practice.
Withdrawal Policy:
Effective Fall 2012
If a student is unable to attend the course or must drop the course for any reason, it will be the
responsibility of the student to withdraw from the course before the withdrawal deadline (see current
NAU Schedule of Classes for deadline).
Plagiarism, Cheating, and Academic Dishonesty:
Please refer to Appendix G of the NAU Student Handbook
