title: The nurse lecturer role in clinical practice conceptualized: helping clinical teachers provide optimal student learning.
abstract: Despite the fairly wide reporting in the literature of the many roles of clinical supervision by the nursing teacher, little attention has been given to conceptualizing the relative priorities these roles take during the process of supervising nursing students in clinical practice. The purpose of this paper is to consider the manifestations and implications of conflicting roles when nurse lecturers undertake clinical supervision. Previously published research will provide working examples of issues in a conceptual framework for clinical teaching.
