title: Educational leave for lecturers to regain clinical competence: 2.
abstract: The way in which nurse lecturers can use paid educational leave (sabbaticals) to develop their own clinical competence is addressed in this article, the second of two parts. The first part (Vol 9(7): 440-4) used Johns' (1998) model of structured reflection to explain the nature of an actual clinical sabbatical. This second part will address the other elements of the model. It focuses on the factors that influenced the decisions made, alternative strategies and the learning that occurred during the author's 3-month leave.
