Description
This is the fourth clinical practicum course designed for the nurse anesthesia student to refine required clinical competencies and gain further experience with evidence-based clinical decision-making and acquired skills in a supervised practicum. Students with guidance from the preceptor will plan, implement, and manage anesthesia-related concerns of the patients across the continuum of care-from preoperative assessment to post-operative evaluation. Clinical objectives are reflective of didactic material presented within the semester to prepare the student to progress from the novice role in the clinical setting to an independent practitioner, in the role of the Advanced Practice Nurse.
