Auditing clinical placements.
The auditing of clinical areas is an important aspect of evaluating and maintaining standards in the Project 2000 scheme of nurse education. The auditing process brings many unexpected additional benefits, including increased ownership of the course and a developing sense of partnership between clinicians and educators. It is not an endeavour that should be undertaken lightly, and many problems can be prevented by good planning, which may include extensive piloting of the audit tool and process.
