This exploratory study examined potential outcomes of clinical experience. Sixteen baccalaureate nursing students completed data collection instruments. The eight students in the control group completed the clinical course as prescribed in the curriculum; the eight students in the experimental group received no assigned clinical experience. The first hypothesis, that there would be an increase in the identification of accurate clinical nursing judgments as a result of clinical experience, was not supported. The second hypothesis, that there would be progress in the development of professional identity as a result of clinical experience, was not supported. Analysis of demographic and secondary data supports a conclusion that the learning outcomes of clinical experience have yet to be identified.

The rising incidence of noncommunicable diseases, combined with the costs of mitigating climate change, sovereign debt and regional conflicts, is undermining global health security and threatening progress towards achieving the sustainable development goals of the United Nations. The negative impact of these polycrises is disproportionately borne by low- and middle-income countries, which have the highest disease burden and lowest health-care spending. Health digitalization is emerging as a promising countermeasure, accelerated by artificial intelligence (AI) software and quantum computing hardware.
