Some material may be presented online via MyUni, LAMS and Storyline. Details of this will be found in the link to this course on MyUni.

Face to face lectures – this course benefits from the real time delivery of content. Face to face lectures offer synchronous learning opportunities and enable students to quickly clarify complex descriptions and terminology. Much of the content for this course is supported by textbooks with web page and e-learning supports (e.g. flash cards for revision). The School of Nursing supports the audio and video capture of lecture content as an aid to revision.

Tutorial sessions – tutorial sessions enable small group discussion and peer interaction around the content. Each tutorial session will focus on the lecture content for the week. Lecturer A (Clinical Tutors) who provide the in hospital assessment and bedside teaching role contribute to and provide tutorial sessions both with university and in the various clinical placement settings. The Lecturer A is able to assess student’s progress in a consistent and supportive environment and identify clinical learning opportunities that reinforce the weekly content of the tutorials and other courses. In this way tutorial sessions integrate with clinical placement goals.

Simulated Learning Environments (SLE) – the simulated learning environment provides students an opportunity to practice a range of communication and psychomotor skills prior to attending clinical placement. Importantly the SLE also enables clearly constructed, well considered clinical scenarios which nurture and challenge student development. The Robin Warren Skills Laboratory within the Faculty of Health Sciences provides a state of the art clinical training venue with dedicated nursing lecturers with expertise in low fidelity simulation. Students will learn to take vital signs on each other and provide a range of activities of daily living. The lab setting enables assessment of basic life support and manual handling. Further enhancement of the lab facility will enable high fidelity simulation to ensure the skills development of students occurs across the three years of the program. The SLE is especially complimentary to the PBL style of content delivery used in the 3rd year of the program.

Clinical placement (aka professional experience) - This course provides skills and knowledge that enable students to participate at a level commensurate with their progression. Students work closely with university Lecturer A staff (Clinical Tutors) and clinicians to reinforce learning and ensure consistency of course objectives. The objective of the professional experience associated with this course is to provide students their first opportunity to care for people and provide fundamentals of nursing care such as hygiene and nutrition. This course also provides an opportunity for students to consider their approach to communication and begin to perform a range of physical and psychosocial assessments.

The workload for this course requires attendance at:
• 2 x 1 hour lecture / week
• 1 x 1 hour tutorial / week
• 1 x 2 hour SLE / week

Please note: For the first 8 weeks of the program 1st Year lectures will be held over 4 full days from Monday – Thursday. This is to enable us to cover the essential material to prepare students for Clinical Placement in week 9. After this time lectures and tutorials will be held from Monday – Wednesday with Clinical placement on Thursday – Friday.

The tables below indicate the lecture, tutorial and simulared workshops for Health Assessment and Clinical Nursing 1. Please refer to the timetable above for details on class and time. Other tutorials may be provided as required.

Health Assessment and Clinical Nursing 1 requires that you attend lectures and tutorials from Monday – Thursday. A time table for these lectures will be available in the Study Guide and on MyUni.
On week 9 you will commence placement and will attend your allocated hospital shift each Thursday and Friday. A Clinical Tutor will be assigned to assist you with this transition.
PLEASE NOTE: Some tutorials and placement will continue for the duration of the Mid Semester Break however public holidays are honored so these will be counted as days off from both placement and lectures.
There are a number of Mandatory Checks that need to be completed prior to commencing placement.
A student handbook has been developed to assist you with these requirements.
PLEASE NOTE: Any student who has not completed all these requirements prior to placement will not be able to attend.

The Small Group Discovery (SGDE) is a compulsory component of the Undergraduate Bachelor of Nursing Program. The SGDE is an approach to learning based on goals that will assist students to discover learning as an intellectual challenge and to develop a scholarship of discovery which will inspire them towards learning and lifelong learning. To achieve these goal students will develop research skills and actively engage with discipline content. This will engender a commitment to the gaining of knowledge and investigation.

Assessment Task	Assessment Type	Weighting	Learning Outcome(s) being addressed
Drug calculations disgnostic	Formative (diagnostic)	N/A	5, 6, 9
Basic life support practical / test.	Formative	N/A	5, 6, 9
Clinical records / NCAS/ Clinical Summative Assessment	Summative	NGP	1-9
Psychosocial health assessment	Summative	50%	1-9
Pre-placement OSCEs	Summative	50%	1, 5, 9

Details of assessment items will be found in the Study Guide and will be further discussed in class.

ASSESSMENT 1: Drug calculations diagnostic

Drug calculations diagnostic: students complete a range of maths and health numeracy questions as part of a diagnostic. This will identify students who need assistance with maths early within the course of their program. The diagnostic forms the first reference for the Research Skills Development (RSD) Level 1 exercise undertaken by students in Semester 2 of first year.

ASSESSMENT 2: Basic life support practical

Basic life support practical: students will be assessed in Basic Life support theory and practical. The assessing staff members have completed a Basic Life Instructor courses through the ACCCN. Practical sessions will be conducted using CPR torsos. Students who fail the practical aspects of BLS will repeat the skills station until they are deemed competent prior to clinical placement.

ASSESSMENT 3: Basic life support test

Basic life support test: students will be assessed in Basic Life support theory. This test will be available online at the completion of the BLS lecture. Students who fail the written aspects of BLS will repeat the test until they are deemed competent prior to clinical placement.

ASSESSMENT 4: Clinical record/NCAS/Clinical Summative Assessment.

Clinical Record: The Clinical Record identifies a range of competencies as required by the 最新糖心Vlogn Nursing and Midwifery Council Competency Standards of the Registered Nurse 2006. Students will have a range of skills records to complete during their clinical placement. The Clinical Record provides evidence that the student has demonstrated the required level of competency standard. Consistent with competency type assessments a non – graded pass is awarded. Some remedial opportunities will be available to those students who fail or are not exposed to certain competencies in the clinical setting. The Clinical Record forms part of the broader portfolio developed across each year of the program and provides a consistent reference for students nursing skill development. Due to the allocation of clinical placements from an external body, CLINEDSA, if required the Clinical Record may be completed across Health Assessment and Clinical Nursing 1 and 2. The Clinical Record also provides the 4Rs reflective framework for clinical teaching staff and students. In addition to the skills record each student is to obtain a completed NCAS (National Competency Assessment Schedule) at the end of each placement. There are a total of 8 competencies to be completed over the 3 year program. A written Summative Assessment must also be obtained at the end of each placement which will be completed by the supervising Registered Nurse and Clinical Tutor.

ASSESSMENT 5: Health assessment

Psychosocial Health assessment: using a pre-supplied pro-forma student will conduct a psychosocial health assessment of an adult within their clinical placement environment. Students will also need to gain permission from the patient or resident using the individual confidential release document from each venue. The health assessment will require students to interview using a range of interview skills and in consideration of gender and culture. Students re asked to reflect on their interview and document with rationale which aspects were positive and which were negative.


ASSESSMENT 6: Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE)

OSCE: students will attend a 30 min OSCE in which they will demonstrate a range of nursing interventions especially in relation to fundamentals of care. Students will be assessed by Lecturer A (Clinical Tutor staff) in the skill laboratory. To ensure consistency in marking two assessors are present with one able to take the role of the ‘patient’ as required.

Unless otherwise indicated all submission of assignments is to be through the assignments portal of MyUni. TurnItin will be used to check student assignments. Students MUST keep an electronic copy of all assignments submitted. Cover sheets are required for all assignments and can be accessed from the School of Nursing website. Extension of 1 week for submission of assignments can automatically be granted when an online request is submitted. (Please see Study Guide for details) Requests must be made before the due date of the assignment. In principle, all assignments should be submitted by the due date. Late submission without an approved extension will be penalised at the rate of 10% of available marks for each working day after the due date. Work submitted more than ten days after the due date may be returned unmarked. This action will be taken to prevent students who do get their work in on time being disadvantaged.
The policy for applying for extensions is outlined in the School Manual and the Study Guides.
Whenever possible staff will turn around marked assignments within 4 weeks or earlier.
