Abstract

Literature supports guided reflection and clinical judgment development as key components to enhancing students' knowledge and preparation for complex nursing care. Faculty are challenged to prepare new nurses to enter the complex health care arena and often note problems in helping students transition classroom learning to clinical application. The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) recognizes and supports teaching clinical judgment in nursing curricula to better prepare nursing students for professional practice (2018).
