Modernizing Bedside Clinical Instruction.

Knowledge and competency gaps of new graduates can be effectively mitigated through stronger partnerships between nursing clinical instructors and bedside clinicians. Bedside clinicians can pull back the curtain on practice realities to show both the challenges and the joys. Traditional nursing faculty must learn how to strengthen and support a new way of working with bedside clinicians that includes letting go of the wheel. Changing the dynamic among nursing clinical faculty, bedside clinicians, and students is an important and essential step in nursing education and preparing new nurses to understand the realities of practice.
