https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/f/nonclinical-discussions/29781/clinical-coaching Hey all, I&#39;ve had a student nurse for the last year doing the ANA course and will be starting as an SVN in Sept. She will be my 1st student ( ). I know from my experience as a student what worked and didn&#39;t for me but that was a few years ago now.

Also use other nurses - if you have one who loves lab (for example) and you hate it then get them to do the majority of that module and get her to feed back.</p> <p>I got my student to have a little notebook and to fill in - patient id , what the task was, what units&nbsp;they are in&nbsp;and what she&#39;s claiming for and then I&#39;d log whatever I needed to whenever I got time (which was usually either in the middle of a night shift or with a glass (or three) of wine in the evenings!</p> <p>Depending on the college you&#39;re using, they may provide you with a template of tutorial sheets they want you to use. I&#39;ve also seen CCs use a quick template they&#39;ve made themselves on the computer - you just need a table with 3 columns and two rows for a basic one - unless you want to get all fancy and make one with practice/rcvs logo etc.</p> <p>Or, if you/anyone you know has one of the old portfolio sheets then you could also use one of those.</p> <p>x</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
