Fifteen qualified nurses/midwives who were working with students from the training institutions of southern Malawi were interviewed. The fifteen qualified nurses/midwives were conveniently sampled and data was collected using a semi-structured interviews. Data was tape recorded and analysed by using eight steps of content analysis. Five main themes emerged: experience of qualified nurses/midwives to teach students /nurses in the clinical area, poor orientation of qualified nurses/midwives towards clinical teaching, inadequate resources, congested clinical learning environment and increased workload for qualified nurses/midwives. The study revealed that most nurses/midwives were more than willing to teach student nurses. It also revealed that nurses/midwives do quite a number of activities in clinical teaching such as orienting students in the ward, demonstrate different procedures to students, and teach them how to manage the wards and subordinates, supervise their procedures and managerial tasks like staff allocations, writing rosters, delegating duties to subordinates among several others. The study also revealed that they lacked proper orientation in clinical teaching, and no preconference meetings between the hospital and the colleges before sending students to the clinical setting. |
