What does your program call the final class, where you basically do a nurse's job for x amount of hours and she/he is there to guide & help? Ours is called practice elective but our classes always have weird names that don't describe the class (&/or clinical).

Specializes in ER.

"Senior Practicum & Leadership"

I'm in this class right now, even though I don't graduate until May.With our class size, we can do it at any point during our senior year, as there are four rotations. I love it...don't want to go back to regular classes.

Specializes in NICU.

Ours was called "Clinical Role Transition" in the course guide, but for some reason we always referred to it as our "synthesis" instead. :rolleyes:
