Clinical Packet for Third Clinical Experience The focus of this clinical experience is to develop clinical judgement. The expectation is that you will progress throughout the semester. Clinical judgement is the ability to intervene in a developing situation to prevent any further damage to the health of a client. It is making an assessment that is broad enough to encompass the possibilities of factors effecting the health of the client and focused enough to be performed and recognized quickly. As you progress through the semester you will be asked to identify trends in vitals, labs, and other assessment factors, which could clue the nurse into the identification of detrimental factors to the client.
