Using unfamiliar clinical settings for RN students.
In light of this experience, I encourage faculty members to help their RN students realize the value in an unfamiliar practice setting. Not only does it provide new knowledge and insights, but it also encourages the application of prior knowledge to new, unfamiliar settings in order to find solutions and implement new strategies. Personal creativity is enhanced as the nursing process is implemented.
