Limited pediatric primary care clinical placement sites and preceptors have made it difficult for family nurse practitioner (FNP) students to meet pediatric preventive clinical competencies. The purpose of this project was to evaluate a faculty-led clinical model to meet pediatric preventive care competencies through a pediatric mobile clinic. A pre-post evaluation design was used to evaluate student perceptions of their achievement of competencies. Students demonstrated improvement in all seven competencies. A faculty-led clinical model through a pediatric mobile clinic may be an effective way to improve pediatric clinical competencies for FNP students.

This study aims to explore the effects of regular low-dose simulation combined with a booster workshop on the progression and retention of resuscitation skills and teamwork among residents.
Methods: This comparative study took place at a teaching hospital in Northern Taiwan from August 2019 to June 2021.
Background: Transitioning to the updated version of The Essentials has been a significant shift in nursing education, aimed at reversing national trends of declining new graduate competence. This article describes the curriculum revision journey undertaken by one program to align with the updated version of The Essentials.

Background: Most postgraduate medical education tracks are faculty-led and emphasise teaching skills. A peer-to-peer medical education track focused on curriculum development and scholarship is notably underrepresented in the literature, especially within graduate medical education. To address these gaps, a 2-year Distinction in Medical Education (DIME) track was developed.

Background: As ultrasound is one of the most utilized imaging procedures in clinical practice in Germany, its integration into undergraduate medical education is imperative. Thereby, the limited availability of qualified instructors is a major challenge. Peer tutors, who are trained to instruct their peers collaboratively, could resolve staff constraints.
