Abstract

Globally, nursing education has moved from a hospital-based education to a university-based education. Though this change resulted in the improvement of the quality of nurses it has also presented its own challenges. Clinical education, one of the major components of nursing education, was adversely affected by the reduction in the amount of time and the quality of clinical placements. In order to combat these challenges, innovative models on clinical education were developed with the objective to produce nurses that can deliver quality care to patients in an evolving health sector.
