Abstract
In a new nursing program, clinical rotations in the surgical and medical units were handled in a manner similar to but not identical with the “traditional instruction” format. The instructors in this “semi-traditional” program were ward nurses relieved of responsibility for their own patients while they were serving as instructors. Due to various reasons an alternative model of instruction was formed, based upon clinical preceptors. Two students at a time were paired with a qualified clinical nurse instructor while performing his/her duty on shift.
