Abstract
Clinical-reasoning (CR) provides a framework for higher-order critical thinking that fosters a nurse’s ability to assess,process and remedy clinical encounters and is considered essential for the provision of quality healthcare. This studyaimed to determine whether student nurses regard the inclusion of video-simulation with critical-reflection as avaluable opportunity to develop their CR skills. An existing case-based assessment was redesigned to include shortvideo-simulations where deliberate but subtle CR flaws were included, requiring students to identify strengths andweaknesses of their own CR process. Following completion of the assessment a modified student satisfaction and selfconfidence Likert scale survey with open-ended questions was conducted to identify perceptions towards theassessment task. Incorporating video-simulation and critical-reflection was perceived as a useful opportunity todevelop CR skills by student nurses. Albeit, students studying in a traditional three year Bachelor of Nursing cohortwere more positive of the opportunity than their peers in a two year fast-track cohort.
