Nursing education in Egypt encountered a tremendous change over the past decades, which mainly focused on the provision of highly qualified professional future nurses. Furthermore, clinical training is considered as an essential element in nursing education to enhance students’ knowledge, skills and attitude.

Critical care nursing students master their clinical practice based on the scope of critical care nursing practice that includes; critically ill patient, critical care environment and critical care nurse. During clinical training, nursing student can be considered as a vital member within the multidisciplinary team who collaborates and participates in direct patient care.

Many patients accept nursing student’s presence in clinical settings but with a wide diversity of their degree of involvement in direct bedside care. Whereas, some patients agree that the students can access their medical files and attend clinical rounds. On the other hand, some patients acknowledge the presence of nursing students with their instructors.
