BACKGROUND Interruptions occur with high frequency in health care settings and are associated with increased medication errors and decreased task efficiency. The Altmann and Trafton memory for goals model, a cognitive-science model, proposes use of associative cues during an interruption to mitigate these negative effects. METHOD A mixed-methods, two-site study explored associative cues and other management strategies that nursing students used when interrupted during simulatedmedication administration. Datawere collected via direct observation and semistructured interviews. RESULTS Students primarily multitasked (66.7 percent) during the interruption. Few students (5.5 percent) used associative cues. Students voiced the need for education and practice on how to manage interruptions. CONCLUSION Evidence-based strategies are required to prepare nursing students for workplace interruptions. Use of associative cues during interruptions warrants further investigation.
