Resources for practice
Participants let us know that resources that could be used in “clinical teaching moments” are helpful for students, nurses and faculty. Here are two series of one page teaching resources: (1) a series related to supporting student learning within consolidated clinical practice and (2) a series related to supporting interprofessional education.
