Terminal Clinical Experience (TCE) 3

Catalog description

Terminal Clinical Experiences (TCE) 3 is a full time (37+ hours/week) 12-week supervised clinical. Student outcomes are assessed using the nationally standardized Clinical Performance Index (CPI). As TCE 3 is a culminating experience, students should achieve CPI ratings at or above entry-level in all categories by the end of this rotation. Expectations for students' performance are incrementally higher than on previous clinical experiences in the areas of supervision/guidance, quality, complexity, consistency, and efficiency as defined by the CPI. The student is expected to be a mature, self-directed learner and demonstrate increasingly competent behaviors in professional interaction, communication, consultation, and management.
