It's being held in an LTC. Clinical itself only lasts 2 days in our program because it's accelerated. Your comment actually gives me an idea. I'm thinking of making a check off list for clinical separate from regular class check offs. Kind of similar to a scavenger hunt but for skill performance. We don't have very much time in clinical so I don't know that I can fit in the extras, but it would be nice.

Hi all! I'm an LPN and I currently hold the position of both instructor and institutional director of a CNA school. I'm very excited about my new role and I truly enjoy teaching. My question is, what is my role during clinical? During my orientation it appeared that I simply patrol the hall and check in on my students from time to time, but I truly want to be more involved. 8 hours is a long time to stand around. I want my students to get the best out of their clinical experience so I don't want to be a mother hen, but I also don't want to just be a hall monitor. Am I looking at this the wrong way?
