Students apply skills and knowledge learned in the classroom, lab, and long-term care placement to the acute care and/or mental health setting under the direction of a clincial supervisor. Students organize and manage a multiple-client assignment while working as a member of an interprofessional healthcare team. Students will be working toward full independence and autonomy within the RCW role. As part of their clinical experience, students may also encounter clients with mental health conditions and are encouraged to explore how mental health disorders intersect with acute physical care needs.
