Abstract
Building excellence in the delivery of patient-centred nursing care requires a nursing working force with the capacity for clinical reasoning, critical thinking and reflective practice. This presentation will describe the ‘clinical reasoning cycle’*, the development of this tool and its use in undergraduate and postgraduate nursing education at the University of Newcastle, Australia. The application of the tool in clinical practice will be illustrated using a case study from the clinical practice of a nurse working in a remote area of outback Australia. In conclusion, the potential benefits of the clinical reasoning cycle as a tool for building excellence in nursing practice will be examined. *Levett-Jones, T. (Ed.). (2013).
