Abstract

Introduction

The teaching-learning process plays an effective role in training nursing students. Devising novel methods can lead to achievement of educational objectives as well as promotion of the clinical and practical training. The present study is aimed to determine the effect of integrated training, including practicing, peer clinical training and objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) assessment.

Methods

The interventional study was conducted on 58 freshman students. Two groups underwent a five-stage educational process; so that, all the students were trained and practiced in the skills lab, and their practical skills were investigated via the OSCE test. Afterwards, for clinical training in hospital, they were randomly divided into two groups of routine training (n = 26) and the peer-learning method (n = 32). Subsequently, in order to investigate the outcomes of the process, the OSCE test scores of the two training groups were compared both before and after the apprenticeship course.

Results

Scores of all the students were increased significantly at the end of the semester, but in terms of the total score of the clinical skills (14.79 ± 1.52 vs. 18.52 ± 0.84), the difference was insignificant (p = 0.29).

Conclusion

Training clinical skills along with OSCE practice and assessment can improve the nursing students’ learning as well as their practical and clinical performance. Improvement of the students’ performance can lead to high-quality care nursing.
