This article reports on a theme emerging from a focused ethnography examining the professional socialization of undergraduate fourth year nursing students during a rural hospital preceptored clinical experience. Nursing students and preceptors geographically dispersed over a 640,000 square kilometer rural area participated in this study. Students report student preparedness for the rural hospital setting means to "know what you are getting into". Assisting nursing students to prepare for the rural hospital preceptorship facilitates a positive experience thus increasing the effectiveness of the preceptorship model of clinical teaching. Having a positive rural-based experience also has the potential for recruiting new staff. These preliminary findings suggest that student preparation for the rural hospital preceptorship includes cognitive and psychological preparation, as well as the acquisition of common advanced clinical skills.
本文报道了一项主题，该主题源自一项聚焦民族志研究，该研究考察了本科四年级护理专业学生在农村医院带教临床实习期间的职业社会化情况。护理专业学生和带教老师分布在一个面积达64万平方公里的农村地区参与了这项研究。学生们表示，为农村医院环境做好准备意味着“清楚自己即将面对什么”。帮助护理专业学生为农村医院带教实习做好准备有助于获得积极的体验，从而提高临床教学带教模式的有效性。拥有积极的农村实习经历也有潜力招募新员工。这些初步研究结果表明，护理专业学生为农村医院带教实习所做的准备包括认知和心理准备，以及掌握常见的高级临床技能。
