Clinical Practice 3 within the Bachelor of Nursing (BN) requires student to complete 120 hours, of supervised clinical experience. Under the direct supervision of a Registered Nurse, students will engage with increasingly complex professional practice concepts within various clinical practice settings. The educational focus for Semester 1, Year 2 is on advancing theoretical and clinical knowledge and skills necessary for providing safe, person-centred care across diverse acute and non-acute environments. These environments include inpatient settings, community healthcare, and residential aged care facilities.
The primary aim of this course is to advance your foundational nursing knowledge and skills, equipping you to deliver comprehensive nursing care across diverse acute and sub-acute environments. By engaging in both inpatient and community practice settings, you will deepen your understanding of nursing care delivery and further develop your clinical reasoning abilities. The course emphasises expanding your scope of practice through mandatory Practical (PRAC) sessions, which integrate theoretical knowledge with practical application.
As the third of six clinical practice courses in the Bachelor of Nursing program, NURS2103 continues to prepare you for the dynamic and complex demands of professional nursing practice, ensuring you are capable of meeting the needs of patients in a wide range of healthcare settings.

Task description
An expectation of this course is satisfactorily meeting the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) Registered Nurse Standards for Practice while practicing under the scope of second year, first semester Bachelor of Nursing student. All students are required to successfully compete 120 hours of clinical placement. The Formative and Summative assessment items need to be completed with successful Summative Australian Nursing Standards Assessment Tool (ANSAT).
Part A: Formative Assessment
1. Placement Readiness Plan
Within the first two days of clinical placement students will develop a Placement Plan. The Placement Plan will be discussed with your clinical facilitator. The overall aim of the plan is to support you to develop agency in your learning and consider how to integrate learning and feedback between different contexts. Through completing placement plans iteratively, you demonstrate your ability to take initiative to prepare for placement and review previous assessments to identify gaps or challenges that need further work as you progress towards working as a Registered Nurse.
2. Clinical Skills Assessment
Within the first half of your clinical placement (prior to your Formative ANSAT) you will select three clinical skills to demonstrate to your Buddy RN or Clinical Facilitator. You will choose one from the medication administration clinical skills list, one from the patient assessment clinical skills list, and one from the clinical procedures clinical skills list. You will demonstrate your ability to safely undertake these activities, and request written feedback on your performance. Information on how to complete your Clinical Skills Assessment will be provided to you prior to starting placement.
3. Self-evaluation of Nursing Standards of Practice
Immediately prior to undertaking your Formative ANSAT you will self-evaluate your performance against the NMBA Registered Nurse Standards for Practice. The aim of this task is to support your ability to evaluate your own performance through making comparisons of your work to that of your peers, supervisors and to the descriptions in the rubric. Through iterative engagement with the standards of practice, you will demonstrate your ability to actively seek and action feedback information and to persist despite the emotional challenges associated with engaging in constructive feedback.
4. Formative ANSAT
Must be completed and submitted via ePAD at the mid-point of placement (after approx. 120 hours of placement):
- Must be signed by Buddy RN/Preceptor or PPE/Clinical Supervisor.
- All sections must be completed (scores and comments).
- Students must receive a score of 3 or above on every criterion to meet the expected level of performance.
Please note: Submitting the Formative ANSAT mid-placement will ensure that students who have not yet met the expected level of performance (scores of 3 and above) can be assisted with a Learning Support Plan through to the end of placement.
5. Feedback and Action Plan
Immediately following your Formative ANSAT you will reflect on the feedback you have received and identify areas for improvement which will be then discussed with your clinical facilitator. The purpose of this task is to assess capacity for self-reflection and ability to process feedback from various sources, to deeply engage with your level of knowledge and professional skills. Through reviewing your completed Formative ANSAT in ePAD, you will demonstrate your ability for accurate self-evaluation and showcase your proficiency in monitoring professional and clinical development over time, reflect on achievements, and identify areas for further growth.
Part B: Summative Assessment
- Summative ANSAT
Must be completed on your last or second-to-last shift and submitted via ePAD by the end of placement:
- Must be signed by Buddy RN/Preceptor or PPE/Clinical Supervisor.
- All sections must be completed (scores and comments).
- Students must receive a score of 3 or above on every criterion to pass. (Any scores of 2 or below at this final assessment means that a student has not achieved passing requirements for this course).

Additional learning activity information
Practical (PRAC) Learning Session Participation
Practical (PRAC) Learning sessions allow for the development of clinical skills and evidence-based practice.
- Preparation for each session is required so students understand the clinical theory and principles that support the practical components of clinical practice. Prior to attending PRAC, students should complete the assigned readings, engage in course learning activities, including self-directed modules, and reflect on clinical practice.
- Each session is structured to support student learning and master of clinical skills required to provide care in the clinical settings. Students must actively participate in skills practice, discussions, and identification of learning needs, while receiving feedback from lecturers and peers.
- Attendance is mandatory for all PRAC sessions.
Absenteeism from PRAC
Students who miss PRAC sessions due to exceptional circumstances, such as illness, injury, or participation in elite athlete programs, will be unable to achieve the required scope of practice and may fail the course. In the event of multiple absences from PRAC classes, missing 20% or more of PRAC sessions (2 or more PRACs) will result in an inability to meet the course objectives and the safe scope of practice required for clinical placement. Such students will receive a failing grade for the course. We strongly encourage students enrolling in this course to consider their ability to meet the requirements. If unable to do so, it is advisable to seek academic advice and consider withdrawing from the course before the census date. Students who miss a PRAC session must notify the Course Coordinator as soon as possible. Students must follow-up by emailing a completed Absenteeism Form (available on NURS7124 Blackboard site) and supporting evidence, i.e. medical certificate / statutory declaration, within 48 hours of the missed PRAC class. Please refer to my.UQ for a list of the acceptable reasons for absence from class.
Makeup for absence from PRAC

Clinical Placement
Students are expected to complete 100% of their allocated placement hours to meet the course learning outcomes and be eligible for a pass.
Clinical placements must be completed within the rostered timeframe advised by the Practice Education Team. Clinical placements may occur during public holidays as well as during the Mid-Semester Break (please refer to your allocated roster from the Practice Education Team).
Students will be required to participate in hospital/corporate mandatory credentialling and other relevant learning opportunities including online modules. Some clinical placement sites will also require student attendance at orientation sessions. Please refer to the Nursing & Midwifery Practice Education (Clinical Placements) Blackboard site.
It is an inherent requirement of the Bachelor of Nursing degree to complete supernumerary professional placements in a range of clinical areas over the duration of the degree. Inherent requirements are the essential components of a course that demonstrate the capabilities, knowledge and skills to achieve the core learning outcomes. The Inherent Requirements Student Placement Declaration form must be completed on enrolment to the course when preferencing or completing attendance placement documentation in InPlace. Should a student’s circumstances change throughout the course of the semester, students are advised to contact the course coordinator to discuss the implications of these changes for your clinical placement.
Compliance Statement
Students are responsible for meeting all pre-placement mandatory requirements before the due date, which will be communicated to you by the Practice Education Team. Failure to comply with these requirements will result in no clinical placement allocation. Students who receive written notification of failure to comply with pre-placement and mandatory requirements will be given a short timeframe to address these. If students do not meet the final compliance deadlines they will no longer be eligible to undertaken clinical placement and no further clinical placement allocation will occur. In these instances students are advised to withdraw from the course before the census date.
Absenteeism from Clinical Placement
Clinical placement shifts are compulsory components of the Nursing program. On the occasion that you are unable to attend clinical placements due to exceptional circumstances, you must follow the instructions outlined in the Attendance and Absence procedure and Clinical Placement Guidelines available on the Nursing & Midwifery Practice Education (Clinical Placements) Blackboard site. It is your responsibility to notify your Practice Educator/ Clinical Facilitator and ward prior to shift start time, enter the absence into e-Pad and provide evidence of absences no more than 48 hours after absence.
All students must complete a minimum of 80% of the course's allocated clinical placement hours in order to be eligible to pass the clinical course. In the event that the 80% of placement completion is not achieved, additional (deferred) hours of clinical placement may be offered to enable you to meet course requirements, however this is dependent upon individual circumstances and placement availability. You must provide your absences documents to be offered deferred placement hours. If you require an extended period of time off placement, we advise you contact the Practice Education Team to discuss your circumstances and options.
*Please note AHPRA require a minimum of 800 hours of clinical placement to be achieved in order to register. If a student only attends 80% of each clinical placement these minimum requirements will not be achieved.
Reminder:
- Students are not authorised to arrange their own shifts.
- Deferred clinical placements may be scheduled out of semester. A deferred clinical placement, like a deferred examination, is the final offering for student to completed clinical placement requirements to meet the course outcomes and be eligible to pass.
- Students are not able to defer, a deferred placement offering.
- If there is a clash with a scheduled clinical placement shift and an exam, students are to contact the Practice Education Team and the relevant subject coordinator immediately to discuss arrangements.
Scope of Practice
Students must adhere to the course Scope of Practice at all times while on clinical placement. This requirement addresses patient safety and students will be removed from placement or risk failing the course if working outside their scope. Please refer to the guidelines in the Nursing & Midwifery Practice Education (Clinical Placements) Blackboard site.
Unsafe practice during clinical placement
A decision of unsafe clinical performance is made when a student's performance places a patient/client, a patient’s/clients’ family, staff members, themselves, or fellow students at risk. If a student practices in a way that is deemed unsafe or breaches the relevant scope of practice during their clinical placement they will be asked to leave the placement facility and the placement will be temporarily suspended. The course coordinator will contact the student to arrange a meeting to discuss the incident, investigate with the facility if required and then an outcome will be made. Unsafe practice during clinical placement may lead to a Learning Support Plan, immediate removal from the clinical placement, or termination of the placement. This could result in a failing grade in the course.
Professional manner during professional placement
Students must always conduct themselves professionally during professional placement. If a student practices unprofessional behaviour during their clinical placement they will be asked to leave the placement facility, and the placement will be temporarily suspended. The course coordinator will contact the student to arrange a meeting to discuss the incident, investigate with the facility if required and then an outcome will be made. Unprofessional behaviour during clinical placement may lead to a Learning Support Plan, immediate removal from the clinical placement, or termination of the placement. This could result in a failing grade in the course.
Social Media
Students are prohibited from posting any images of patients, clinical venues, or clinical documentation on social media. Students should also refrain from making comments related to clinical placement, UQ, or clinical venues that may violate University or institutional policies or guidelines or bring UQ into disrepute. If a student has been reported to be involved in a social media incident during their clinical placement they will be asked to leave the placement facility and the placement will be temporarily suspended. The course coordinator will contact the student to arrange a meeting to discuss the incident, investigate with the facility if required and then an outcome will be made. Inappropriate use of social media may lead to a Learning Support Plan, immediate removal from the clinical placement, or termination of the placement. This could result in a failing grade in the course.
