Students will progress from directly supervised clinical experiences to a more independent and indirectly supervised clinical nurse residency experience. Assignments in this course will immerse students into the patient/client care environment, preparing them for the transition from student nurse to professional registered nurse. Upon completion the students will be able to provide safe and effective care for patients/clients and families in a community context.
