A part-time clinical nursing instructor provides supervision and training for nursing students in a clinical environment. As a part-time employee, you typically work thirty hours or less a week. Your specific job duties vary, depending on what level of students you teach. General responsibilities include teaching students how to interact with patients, handle medical equipment, perform standard procedures, and assess a student's retention of the taught skills. You may also coordinate with medical facilities to find opportunities for students to shadow experienced nurses while they care for patients. Some clinical instructors educate nurses who are already licensed and training to work in a specialized area of health care.
