Saintsing, D., Gibson, L. M., & Pennington, A. (2011) The Novice Nurse And Clinical Decision-Making: How To Avoid Errors. Journal Of Nursing Management, 19, 354-359

This article is an integrated review whose key objective is to give a summary of findings related to errors made by novice nurses when making clinical decisions. Some of the common error types that novice nurses commit include patient falls, delay in treatment, and medication errors. Hence, the three significant themes that the article focuses on are forms of errors, their causes, and finally, the probable interventions. The research mainly targets educators in an attempt to make changes in training so that novice nurses can learn how to avoid common errors. Recent literature provided information on the types and causes of errors, while probable interventions were based on the discussion between nursing student and faculty.
