Abstract：
In Canada, the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives requires baccalaureate registered nurse education programs to deliver a generalist curriculum meeting entry-level competencies. To fulfill this requirement, nursing programs ensure the provision of practice opportunities for hands-on experience with patients of all ages through practicum. Current literature suggests the limited availability of clinical placement opportunities in pediatric settings. This may reduce the opportunity for nursing students to become acquainted with the unique needs of infants, children, and adolescents as part of their nursing education.
This study aimed to explore students\' and new graduates\' experiences of acute and community pediatric clinical practicum as part of their British Columbia nursing education program.
This study utilized a qualitative descriptive approach. Fifteen online semi-structured interviews were conducted with thirteen undergraduate nursing students and two recent graduates. Participants in this study were distributed across the province of British Columbia, representing the North, the Interior, and the Lower Mainland. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis.
The key themes of relational practice and exposure to lived experiences (and their related subthemes) are explored in detail. Both themes encapsulate the importance that nursing students ascribe to the pediatric practicum experience as part of their nursing education.
The result of this study deduced that the pediatric practicum experience provided nursing students with learning opportunities they may not get elsewhere such as: building relationships with children, adolescents, and their families within the context of care and developing awareness of the lived experiences of health and illness with each patient encounters. This unique perspective of nursing students may prove valuable for the planning and delivery of clinical learning in nursing education programs.

摘要：
背景：在加拿大，不列颠哥伦比亚省护士和助产士学院要求学士学位注册护士教育计划，以提供通才课程会议入门级能力。为了满足这一要求，护理计划确保通过实习为所有年龄段的患者提供实践经验的实践机会。目前的文献表明，在儿科环境中临床安置机会的可用性有限。这可能会减少护理学生熟悉婴儿独特需求的机会，孩子们,和青少年作为他们护理教育的一部分。
目的：本研究旨在探索学生和新毕业生在急性和社区儿科临床实习中的经验，作为其不列颠哥伦比亚省护理教育计划的一部分。
■本研究采用了定性描述方法。对13名护理本科生和2名应届毕业生进行了15次在线半结构化访谈。这项研究的参与者分布在不列颠哥伦比亚省，代表北方，内部,和较低的大陆。采用专题分析法对数据进行分析。
结果：详细探讨了关系实践和接触生活经验（及其相关子主题）的关键主题。这两个主题都包含了护理学生将儿科实习经验作为护理教育的一部分的重要性。
结论：这项研究的结果推断，儿科实习经验为护理学生提供了他们在其他地方可能无法获得的学习机会，例如：与儿童建立关系，青少年,和他们的家人在护理的背景下，提高对每个患者遇到的健康和疾病的生活经历的认识。护理学生的这种独特观点可能对护理教育计划中的临床学习的计划和交付很有价值。
