supervised by instructors, and their objective is to apply classroom theory in selected clinical
situations. It is not an expectation that a student be under direct supervision of the nurse manager.
Students are not unit employees. It is not a usual practice for practical nursing students to form a
nursing team of their own and not be a part of the larger unit team on the clinical unit.
