Questionnaires.

After training session	After clinical practice
Before the training session I was well prepared by reading the Procedures in Clinical Practice in Nursing© (PCPN)	We should have more time to practice in the laboratory
The training session was organized in a good way	I am content with my preparedness to conduct the procedure before clinical practice
I discovered during the session that I should have prepared myself better	The training session contributed to a good basis for conducting the same in clinical practice
Students in my group used the training time effectively	It was easier than expected to perform the procedure in clinical practice
I’m confident that I will master the bed bath with a real patient in clinical practice	To conduct the procedure in clinical practice was similar to the one in the training session in the laboratory
The training session made me want to seek more knowledge about the procedure	I am confident that I will master the procedure with a real patient in clinical practice
It’s my responsibility as a student to practice the procedures until practiced	The internship has strengthened my decision to become a nurse
Training sessions in the laboratory is a good way to prepare oneself for clinical practice
