OBJECTIVES: To examine the influence of an intensive clinical skill bootcamp on students' perceptions to provide care in acute situations.
SETTING: Evidence indicates that the recognition and response to patient change can be a challenge in nursing practice and especially so for undergraduate students (Goldsworthy et al., 2022). Additionally, the impact of the pandemic interrupted the preparation of undergraduate nursing students across the world. It is suggested that intensive clinical skills practice can enhance clinical skills, confidence and time management (Hinton and Chirgwin, 2010). However, little is known about the value of these intensive programs on the perceived ability of nursing students to provide care in acute situations.
METHODS: An embedded mixed methods design was employed with a quasi-experimental repeated pre-post design using the Perception to Care in Acute Situations scale (Sterner et al., 2020) and qualitative focus groups. The intervention comprised 4 h of technical skills simulation and 2 h of immersive simulation. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics and inductive thematic analysis.
RESULTS: From 130 final year nursing student who participated in the bootcamp, 73 responses to the survey were obtained. Fifty-four responses from students before the simulation activities and 19 responses after. Significant changes in student perceptions of their abilities to provide care in acute situations were noted. Three focus groups were conducted with four themes recognised in the qualitative data including interrupted preparation; factors that influence learning; role modelling; and making connections.
CONCLUSION: The pandemic interrupted student preparation for clinical placement. Intensive clinical skills bootcamps develop student perceived confidence by providing feedback and opportunities for reflection to make connections. Opportunities for student reflection on their current competence supports developing realistic insights into perceived capabilities.
