Can incorporating inpatient overnight work hours into a pediatric clerkship improve the clerkship experience for students?
Overnight work hours for medical students increased clerkship capacity while maintaining student satisfaction and cognitive performance. Added benefits included increased clinical experience and improved QRT.
For postgraduate nurses, daylong cancer pain education workshops were, in the group studied, as effective as hands-on experience in improving cancer pain knowledge and changing attitudes. Both the workshop-only and the enriched-model nurses relative to controls had significantly improved knowledge and changed attitudes towards optimal pain management.
