Content

Clinical practice includes learning laboratory and simulation studies 2.5 ects

Location and time

Clinical practice, weeks 43-50.

Materials

Vocational literature on the practice environment given in connection with theoretical studies.

Teaching methods

Clinical practice in acute care unit (emergency, intensive care or perioperative nursing). The clinical practice section includes laboratories and simulations organized in connection with theory teaching (3 ects). These must be completed before starting the clinical practice. In addition, the student must have successfully completed all basic practice. The drug calculation exam included in the theoretical studies must have been passed. Training may be denied if the medication test has not been passed.

Employer connections

Clinical practice in acute nurse environment.

Exam schedules

N/A

International connections

It is possible to complete the clinical practice in an international exchange in emergency, intensive care units or perioperative units according to the instructions of Metropolia University of Applied Sciences.

Completion alternatives

No optional methods. The student can accept the clinical practice with the nurse's previous work, but this is not recommended. The student makes an AHOT-application to their own tutor teacher. The clinical practice can also be done as a paid nurse job.

Student workload

Clinical practice is 15 ects which contains labs and simulations (3 ects). The practice is 8 weeks and 320 hours. During the practice, the working methods, shifts and general principles of the work community are followed in connection with the practice. During the practice there is a written assignment (research club), which provides separate instruction in theory studies. Doing that does not reduce the number of hours of practice.
