| dc.description.abstract | Background Clinical competence is critical to evaluating nursing students’ capacity to undertake professional nursing prac tice in a safe and professional environment without any bias of examiners. Objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) is used as an assessment method of students’ clinical practice skills. Aims The aim of this study is to assess the nursing faculty members’ perception toward OSCE to be used as an assessment method of nursing students in their performing of nursing procedures, as well as explore the advantages and disadvantages of OSCE as perceived by study participants. Method A descriptive cross-sectional study was used among nursing faculty members (N=73) who participated on a work shop that were conducted by Jordanian Nursing Council (JNC) between January 2022 and March 2023. Result The mean perception toward OSCE was 105.87 ± 22.02 (p value = 0.001). The majority of faculty members reported a positive perception toward the OSCE (82.2%). The negative perception was significant in gender, age group, level of education, and academic experience (p<0.05). The majority of faculty members were agree on the advantages of OSCE. Conclusion OSCE is a vital assessment and an objective method in assessing the student’s clinical competence. More studies exploring the differences of OSCE perceptions and participant’s characteristics are required. Keywords Clinical skill competency · Nursing education · OSCE · Staff perception | |
