MODEL OF CLINICAL
TEACHING
I can understand why we need to talk about it again ………….
Everything changed within a blink of an eye.
Our previous practices have become the old norm.
Everything needs a new way of execution.
Perhaps this time we should discuss what is the most appropriate model for clinical teaching in the midst of this pandemic

FACTORS DELAYING THE ADMISSION OF STUDENTS BACK TO CLINICAL AREAS
Students are not even allowed to enter the fully equipped
skills room
• This created a stressful situation for both educators and students.
Students did not get the opportunity to care for "real" patients and families and
transfer what was learned in simulation
and class in relation to patient care.
Students do not have the chance to
compare their patient's conditions and
responses to the concepts they are learning
in class
.Students are not able to develop as
professionals roles and learn to interact
with other health care providers
Students are not exposed to ethical situations, some of which are resolved
differently than the scenario they examined
in class
Students do not have an opportunity to
collect and analyze data, think through
possible approaches to use, and make
informed decisions within the context of
patient-centered care
Because …………
We know students learn best in a positive, supportive and real learning environment
The real environment is totally different sensation from classroom or online teaching
.
CENTRALITY FIELD OF EDUCATION
• Malaysian curriculum, must not dilute its rigor, must meet the required hours, and provide similar experiences in conducting individual casework, group work, community work including any form of clinical works
• This is to fulfil the outcome-based learning system, whilst adhering to MCO rules and regulations implemented by the Ministry of Higher Education and the government.

THREE TIMES LOCKED
17
THMARCH 2020 – 28
THJUNE 2021
• From 17th march 2020 until today we experienced 3 times locked down.
• We went through this pandemic ordeal for almost a year and six months.
• Much we have learned about the difficulty of students who were not directly able to begin clinical placement to this day.
The Most Unique Group We Have Ever Come Across…….
This is the group of students most affected by Pandemic covid 19.
The group has only 34 students
They have enrolled into the program in 2020.
Their learning theory was all through online approaches
After almost one and a half years they have not yet set foot in clinical placements.
Attempts to Alleviate Challenges -Clinical Placement Catastrophe-
• The Department has moved forward as early as the first MCO. We started initially with video recording and online teaching of procedures.
• We could feel that both parties: the lecturers and students had little satisfaction with such approaches
• We make improvements day by day to clinical teaching and improvise the placements.
• We succeeded in conceptualizing the whole process of clinical teaching structures

Over the course of a year and a half there were several times students were allowed to be in the skills room. Students took this opportunity with the Clinical Instructor to perform clinical placements. Students undergo the placement based on scenarios, developed according to learning outcomes required.

OUR CLINICAL TEACHING MODEL ( OCTM)
COVID-19 Pandemic Effects on Nursing Education: Looking Through the Lens of a Developing Country
Chinwendu F. First published: 29 January 2021
A cyclical approach to educational emergencies should be embraced: prepare, cope and recover
To consider and embrace all the strategies that are needed in cases of emergencies, because COVID-19 is just one pandemic,
Other emergencies could happen, they are inevitable, and the only solution is to prepare, respond, cope and recover as quickly as possible
(Azzi-Huck & Shmis 2020).
I just read this article a few days ago after the development of OCTM was made
EVALUATION OF PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION
An Evaluation was conducted on OCTM soon after those
students had gone through almost 10 months the training and 6 weeks of clinical placement alternately in the
Clinical Skill Lab and University Health center.
EVALUATION OF CLINICAL PLACEMENT
Mainly focusing on this affected group, N=34 (100%)
Exploring on the experience of clinical placement at the Clinical Skill Lab and University Health Center during Pandemic Covid 19
EVALUATION OF OCTM
1. Effectiveness of Online Clinical Teaching Approach
2. Supervision at Simulated Ward Environment 3. Self-efficacy and Confidence Level on
Transfer of Clinical Knowledge - Online
INSTRUMENT
1. Frequency on Students Satisfaction Questionnaire Brysiewycz, P. ( 2009)

Our Assumptions
• Students feel less comfortable being in SWE (UHC) due to the limited space.
• This initiative is a new initiative.
• Perhaps the implementation of this initiative will take time for CI to master and students to understand the concept of simulated ward environment
• The CIs who are at SWE are the same Cis supervising the students at CSL

AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT
(Should we faced another emergencies/ adversities , they are inevitable, and the only solution is to prepare)

WE ARE JUST BEGINNING IT WILL PROBABLY COME TRUE
IMPROVING TEACHING AND LEARNING PACKAGES

• SIMULATED PATIENTS
• BRIEFING
• EQUIPMENT / SUPPLIES
