Activity sheets are due before the start of clinical on the assigned due dates. They must be turned in complete at the beginning of clinical before student
assignments are made, if not complete, you will not be prepared for clinical and will be sent home.
                                      th   th   st
 L&D and AP will be due on the 18 /20 /21 – which ever your clinical day falls on. (Ex: if your clinical day is Wednesday, then your paperwork is due on the
   th
18 )
                                              st rd th
New Baby and Postpartum is due on the 1 /3 /4 -again on the actual day your clinical falls on.
General Expectations:
                                                                                                                                  th   th   st
Each week 2 APIE’s will be due by the start of class on Tuesday’s. (Ex: clinical databases (found in your syllabus) from the 18 /20 /21 will be used to form
                                                                th
your APIE’s, and those APIE’s will be due on Tuesday the 24 at 9:10 am.).
Please get a folder that will be designated for clinical: a copy of your evaluation (found in your syllabus), all patient data sheets and all APIE’s must be kept in
the folder and turned in each week. The activity sheets will need to be turned in with your folders at the end of your clinical. We will cover this again during
face to face clinical orientation. I know it sounds very overwhelming, but we will all get through it together. Ms. Overbey, Ms. Bullard, Ms. Vaughn-Lloyd and I
are here to guide you through your learning experiences. We all also remember the stresses of being in nursing school!
Cell phones are not allowed in clinical. This includes your pockets!
Even if you do not usually eat in the mornings, please eat something!! Bring snacks; we don’t want to miss a delivery because we left the floor to eat! Believe it
or not, this is an area where it is not uncommon to PASS OUT!!! Please, if you ever feel light headed, sit where you are, those who quickly try to leave the
room…HIT THE FLOOR! :-/
Be on time; dressed in school approved shirt and pants and your lab coats; don’t forget your stethoscopes, pen lights or scissors (see syllabus); and always have
your student ID. The clinical sites will not allow you to stay if your do not have your ID’s.
Remember, never, never, never, leave the clinical area without first notifying your instructor and the nurse assigned to your patient. Even to go to lunch. And
leaving the clinical site to go to lunch is not allowed.
Remember, our particular patients are often very sensitive to odors, good and bad! No perfumes, but please do pay special attention to your daily hygiene
habits, including dental hygiene ;).
                                                                                                                                     th
Please review and submit proof of the following programs: (copy the evaluation page): by beginning of class on Tuesday the 17 .
