Clinical site selection by students through use of an internet database.
Use of the Internet in nursing education has greatly expanded during the past decade and will continue to be a force in the future. The authors describe the development and maintenance of an Internet Web site created to assist in the placement of individual students on particular clinical sites for their Capstone Practicum course in a baccalaureate school of nursing. Issues related to development, maintenance, and use of the program are included. Recommendations include possible application in other schools of nursing as well as other disciplines.
