Assessing students' clinical learning environment is therefore vital towards ensuring effective learning experience within the clinical settings. Objectives: This study examined nursing students' perception about clinical learning environment, evaluated satisfaction with the clinical learning environment and identified factors associated with satisfaction in a University Teaching Hospital, southwest Nigeria. Methodology: Study employed sequential explanatory mixed method design; Chan's Actual Clinical Learning Environment Inventory (Chan, 1999) was adopted to examine students' satisfaction with clinical learning environment among 178 nursing students. Focus Group Discussion explored perception about clinical learning environment among 40 nursing students purposively selected. Independent t-test and logistic regression analysis examined influence of probable predictors of students' satisfaction, p<0.05 was significant, qualitative responses were analyzed thematically. Results: Quantitative data from 175 nursing students revealed that the overall perception about clinical learning environment was similar across total scale of the clinical learning inventory. There was significantly higher mean score on tax orientation sub-scale (p=0.01), 62.3% of the nursing students were satisfied with clinical learning environment, 37.7% were dissatisfied. Perception about task orientation significantly influenced satisfaction with clinical learning environment (p=0.001), logistic regression analysis reveals no significant association between demographic characteristics and satisfaction with clinical learning environment, qualitative responses resulted into six main themes. Conclusion: The overall perception about clinical learning environment among nursing students was similar across total scale of the Clinical learning Environment Inventory. Perception about task orientation significantly influenced satisfaction with clinical learning environment. Functional clinical setting should ensure well organized, clear, specific roles for students for effective learning activities. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
