Assessing the quality of feedback during clinical learning: Development of the Feedback Assessment for Clinical Education (FACE)Onello, Rachel; Regan, Mary J.; Johantgen, Mary E. (2015)Background: During a time of increased faculty shortages, nursing programs rely heavily on adjunct instructors to facilitate clinical learning experiences essential for fostering clinical reasoning and multiple ways of thinking. A significant component of clinical learning is the reflective feedback conversation that occurs between instructor and student. Quality feedback conversations use specific techniques that explicitly encourage students to reflect, analyze, and extrapolate learning to other contexts. Comparing actual performance to desired performance through the exploration and analysis of learner thoughts and actions is an effective modality to help close learning gaps and impact future performance. However, many clinical instructors responsible for facilitating feedback conversations are inadequately prepared to do so, lacking the pedagogical training necessary to maximize learning. Current resources for clinical instructors fail to provide a clear framework that guides instructors on how to facilitate feedback conversations for quality learning. Methods: To address the need for a tool that can guide the development of feedback skills and assess feedback behaviors among clinical instructors, The Feedback Assessment for Clinical Education (FACE) was developed. The FACE was designed to assess instructor behaviors associated with facilitating quality feedback conversations across clinical settings and disciplines. Using a multiphase approach, the FACE tool, comprising a rating form and rater handbook, was developed using Mezirow's Transformative Learning Theory, multidisciplinary research, and experts from the fields of education, organizational behavior, psychology, and health sciences. An iterative comparative process using theory and research guided the identification and development of key constructs associated with effective feedback conversations. Results: Qualitative content validity testing informed the operationalization of constructs into behavioral indicators and resulted in a six element behaviorally anchored rating scale. Quantitative content validity testing using Lawshe's Content Validity Ratio and the Content Validity Index suggest strong content validity at each level of the tool. Conclusions: This work offers a theory-based, research-driven tool to assess the quality of feedback in clinical settings and presents opportunities across education, research, and practice to enhance the current state of knowledge on best practices of feedback conversations. Future psychometric testing is needed to fully appreciate the potential of the FACE tool.

ICTR Enrichment Series: Towards Building a Clinically-Inspired Ultrasound Innovation Hub: Design, Development and Clinical Validation of Ultrasound Probes for Imaging, Therapeutics, Sensing and Other ApplicationsManbachi, Amir (2023-01-10)Ultrasound is a relatively established modality with a number of exciting, yet not fully explored applications, ranging from imaging and image-guided navigation to tumor ablation, neuromodulation, piezoelectric surgery, and drug delivery. In this talk, Dr. Manbachi discusses some of his ongoing projects aiming to address low-frequency neuromodulation, minimally invasive ablation of neuro-oncology and implantable sensors for spinal cord blood flow measurements.

Implementation of a Clinical Nurse Manager Orientation at a Community ClinicClinton, Iman J. (2024-05)Problem: Nonprofit community health centers in the mid-Atlantic region provide healthcare services and resources to a vulnerable patient population with many chronic conditions and limited to no health insurance. The community clinics have seen a variation in patient care and nursing practice by the clinical nurse managers (CNM). This variation in practice is secondary to the lack of a formal orientation program. Purpose: This quality improvement initiative aims to implement an orientation program that actively engages the experienced nurse to enhance the application and retention of critical onboarding information. The overall project goal of the CNM orientation program is for the CNM preceptee to rate all American Organization for Nursing Leadership’s (AONL) Nurse Manager competencies at a level of competent, proficient, or expert. Methods: The AONL competency orientation program was implemented over 12 weeks. A 12-week lesson plan was implemented with one new clinical nurse manager. The lesson plan included weekly objectives and resources to ensure the clinical nurse manager is competent to lead and oversee the daily operations of the community clinic. A pre-assessment of the CNM’s knowledge and understanding of the AONL nurse manager competencies was completed before the implementation of the CNM orientation program. The AONL nurse manager competencies were measured weekly after weekly curriculum, content outline, and resource materials were reviewed and applied to clinical practice. Weekly evaluations were completed to ensure the CNM met the weekly objectives. The project lead provided education and support to the preceptor throughout the orientation. A weekly meeting between the preceptee, preceptor, and project lead occurred to provide feedback on the progress of the preceptee in meeting the weekly objectives, orientation expectations, goals, and competencies. Results: The CNM preceptee progressed from novice, advanced beginner, or competent to proficient and expert post the implementation of the AONL Nurse Manager Orientation program. The CNM preceptee rated 48% of the competencies as proficient and 52% of the competencies as an expert. Conclusions: The post assessment results suggest that the clinical nurse manager orientation effectively prepares new clinical nurse managers in a community clinic setting to enhance the application and retention of critical onboarding information.
