Institution:

The University of Montana

Subject:

Description:

The Capstone Clinical is designed to assist students in the integration of the competencies essential for the practice of professional nursing. During the semester, the student will progress from a structured supervised framework of practice to a framework where the student becomes able to have general supervision from the faculty and agency preceptors. The clinical site will be dependent upon the student's needs based upon the joint analysis of the student and faculty prior to the placement. A 1-credit NCLEX Lab will be taught during the spring semester of the senior year as part of the Capstone Clinical course (students taking NU 417 in the fall for 3 credits will take the 1-credit NU 417 Lab in the spring). This lab is intended to assist the student's own preparation for their NCLEX examination. Students will be expected to retain accountability and responsibility for their personal NCLEX preparation plan and for the completion of their preparation plan. The lab will utilize on-line computerized resources, information from multiple published written NCLEX review resources, as well as NCLEX review DVD resources. Prerequisites: completion of 300-level nursing courses, or concurrent NU 414, NU 413. Fall and spring semester. (NU 417 Lab offered only in spring).
