The purpose of the weekly clinical performance evaluation tool is to provide feedback about achievement of the course outcomes
and competencies and to assist the student to meet the standards of care for nurses in Oregon as outlined in the Nurse Practice
Act.
Explanation of Rating Scale:
(S) Satisfactory = Clinical performance is safe and student adequately demonstrates application of the nursing process/clinical
judgment, required skills, and expected synthesis of learning appropriate to level in the program. Verified by direct instructor
observation.
(NI) Needs Improvement = Indicates that additional learning and attention to detail is required for a particular item or that the
overall performance for the week is at a minimum level. The instructor will write an explanation of the rating on the comments
page.
(U) Unsatisfactory = Clinical performance is unsafe and inadequately demonstrates application of the nursing process/clinical
judgment model, required skills, and expected synthesis of learning appropriate to level in the program. The instructor will write
an explanation of the rating on the comments page.
(NA) Not applicable = Particular item does not apply to the clinical performance.
(NO) Not observed = Instructor did not observe or has no knowledge of the students performance of the activity.
Students with a grade of NI or U will be required to meet with their advisor and clinical instructor and discuss a plan for change in
their behavior before their next clinical experience.
Safety and legal/ethical concepts are considered critical to the profession and will be graded as NI or U if any violation occurs.
If a student is assigned a U or NI for two weeks, the faculty will review the students clinical performance and consider the
options of either placing the student on probation or dismissing from the program.
In cases of potential failure, notification of the student by the instructor that she/he has been assigned a grade of U or NI for one
week constitutes proper warning of the grade status.

If a student is placed on probation and then receives a grade of U, the faculty will review the students performance and
determine whether or not the student will be dismissed from the program.
