Essential Reading for Clinical Educators
"It is at the same time both intellectually rigorous yet down to earth, and is a usable workbook in the practical management of the student experience. This book is therefore, essential reading for all clinical educators."
-- Professor Peter Bradshaw , Journal of Advanced Nursing, Vol 41 Issue 6, March 2003

A helpful addition for any nurses collection.
I have just completed my Student nurse mentorship course and found this book really usefull. It is clearly and practically set out, gives good examples of teaching scenarios and situations. I think i would have struggled through the course without it.

Great
Thoroughly recommend this to any nurse doing there PEP, easy to read and understand and covers all aspects of assesmenr, supervision and support in clinical practice. I usually sell my books when I finish a course but this is a keeper.
