Nursing Student Placement: Clinical Instructor Resources

We look forward to onboarding you for your teaching experience at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.  

New and returning instructors will receive a request from automated@app.smartsheet.com to submit their instructor survey once their school submits their information to student placement for onboarding.  Next steps about onboarding, including shadow shift scheduling, if applicable, will be provided to instructors directly thereafter.  Follow-up with your school to ensure student placement has been notified of your impending teaching experience.

Please review instructor resources annually for the facility you will be providing instruction at.

    • The assignment sheet should be filled out each time instructors bring students to the unit.  When the student/patient assignment is made with the RSL or CSL for the day, please make sure that this assignment sheet is left at the nurse’s station and visible to staff.

    • Review the nursing student scope of practice with your students.
    • Regional Facilities Include:
