WHY CANT STUDENTS PICK THEIR OWN CLINICAL TEACHING ASSOCIATES?
• Doing so would create a situation that would encourage a large number of students from September through March (or maybe even first year) to petition staff nurses to become a CTA. It would put a large burden on staff. • It would be unfair to the more timid students who might not ask early, or often enough. • Lane Registration process must be upheld. Students are assigned in order of the registration number sequence for that term. In the past, preceptor students have usually been placed in a preferred clinical site.
