Clinical hours calculations

I’m curious how people are having their clinical rotation hours calculated for nurse practitioner school rotations.  In my program, it’s based off contact hours on the site.  I’ve heard Chamberlain only counts the actual face to face time with patients.  this would seem impossible to plan since typically clinical rotations are set up based on hours or days, not patient time which is hard to predict.    Curious how others have seen it done it?  Is that really how Chamberlain does it?

Wow, so walking in the halls between pts, consulting with other providers, etc., isn't counted? Weird.
