C229 Community Health Field Experience

OVERVIEW

C229 Community Health Field Experience (BSNU, RN-MSN)


The Community Health and Population-Focused Nursing Field Experience introduces the student to the clinical aspects of health promotion and disease prevention in the community health environment. Students will focus upon the development of skills necessary to prioritize the global clinical needs of the community, nursing methodology, and resources to improve the health of the community. Students will also develop a potential social media campaign to promote population health and address primary prevention topic outcomes.

Establishing a Clinical Field Experience site is time-sensitive. Students must set their Health Field Experience Start Date with their Mentor and should actively engage in networking to identify a site and preceptor at least 120 days prior to their Field Experience to avoid delaying degree progression.

The purpose of this field experience is to expose you to the practice of nursing care interventions focused on the community and a population as the patient. In this field experience, you will observe with licensed registered nurses employed at community facilities to learn about the health concern you chose and the resources and services for care from their perspectives.

In this field experience, the student will:听

  • Demonstrate critical thinking skills by applying principles of community health nursing in a variety of community settings aligning with the selected primary prevention topic.
  • Describe the completed field experience in a written assessment that will also outline recommendations to improve the community health concern using the nursing process.
  • Develop and recommend health promotion and disease prevention strategies for population groups.听

Students are permitted to complete direct hours observing with licensed registered nurses knowledgeable in the selected prevention topic. Use the list below to help determine recommended registered nurses and facilities.

  • The course has total of 65 direct patient care hours.
  • The 60 hours direct hours will be completed in the student鈥檚 community and should relate to the student鈥檚 field experience topic.鈥
  • Remember this is an interactive direct care experience 鈥 speak with patients, provide care, education, etc. - it is not simply observing or shadowing

For Course Content Related Questions Contact: communityhealthc229inbox@wgu.edu

Students are not permitted to document site visits or assessments, interviews, paid working time, work-related training, webinars, online courses, online training, in-person training or classes, continuing education units (CEUs), research hours, time spent writing the paper, time spent scheduling activities, unsupervised observations of people or patients, participation in or observation of sporting events, or in-person or online meetings. Students are not permitted to shadow or observe a professional or nonprofessional who is not a registered nurse.

Clinical Placement Process Overview


In Preparation of the Field Experience:

  • Students will identify and submit their topic, host site and preceptor
  • Complete compliance and site-specific requirements
  • Obtain official clearance before engaging in hours

To avoid delaying your degree progression, meet with your mentor to set a Health Field Experience Start Date and actively engage in networking to identify a potential Site and Preceptor for your C229 Community Health Field Experience.

Wyoming placements require an Affiliation Agreement between 黑料传送门 and the Clinical Site. Clinical Learning and Placement Support Coordinators will assist with establishing Affiliation Agreements as needed.听

NOTE: This is a legal contract negotiation process and can take up to 6 months to fully execute. The 黑料传送门 Outreach Team will work with the Clinical Site Contract Administrator to negotiate an Affiliation Agreement. The negotiation of these agreements takes time and can go back and forth several times before they are signed by both 黑料传送门 and the Clinical Site. Plan accordingly to avoid delaying your degree progression.

You will need ample time to network and identify potential preceptors, as well as gathering and uploading compliance records, which can take time and may require updated immunizations. If establishing an Affiliation Agreement with your selected clinical site or renewing an expiring agreement is required, the process can take up to 6 months.

Any delay in starting these steps will impact your degree progression, resulting in a delay in your degree progression.

Students鈥 will assess the community to identify a primary health promotion or prevention topic from the . Remember the focus is on positive health outcomes. Keeping general population health - not treatment focused on specific disease or conditions.
