Examining the impact of traditional and non-traditional mental health clinical placement on nursing students understanding of domestic violence: A quasi-experimental study
This study highlights the critical role that clinical placements play in shaping nursing students' understanding of DV. While participation in both types of mental health clinical placement settings provided certain benefits for students, those who attended a non-traditional mental health placement experienced unique advantages that varied by gender. Notably, the non-traditional placement enhanced all nursing students' (both male and female) understanding of available support resources for individuals experiencing DV.
