Monmouth University Main Campus

West Long Branch, NJ

Monmouth University's Marjorie K. Unterberg School of Nursing seeks Adjuncts for the Nursing Lab. The Nursing Lab promotes student learning about specific clinical tasks through visual and kinesthetic modalities. Instructors with an MSN not only teach the task but also the rationale behind the task and emphasize safety points. Instructors with a BSN reinforce previous learning.

The Adjunct, Nursing Lab will also assist with simulations, tutoring, remediation, medication calculation, clinical referrals, and Nursing Care Plan assistance.

The Adjunct, Nursing Lab divides students into small groups to practice a procedure or provide individual supervised practices. This involves practicing on other students when appropriate, for example, when students are learning to take vital signs. Students also practice on mannequins, for example, when they are learning the process of urinary catheterization. Students may also have the opportunity to practice on specially built clinical simulation devices. The Adjunct, Nursing Lab gives feedback as needed. In addition to helping them practice, this process also helps them build confidence in their hands‑on nursing skills.

After students learn specific clinical skills, the Adjunct, Nursing Lab will assess them while they perform a return demonstration (a demonstration of that skill). The Adjunct, Nursing Lab may be required to check off their demonstration against specific criteria (Skills Checklist) and use equipment to assess their skills. For example, in a vital signs return demonstration one might use a dual‑headed stethoscope to ensure that the instructor and the student are hearing the same blood pressure sounds.

The skills lab grade is competent/not competent (pass/fail) based on a demonstration of the assigned skill/s for the course.

Specific skills being taught and evaluated in the undergraduate BSN program at Monmouth University include:

Personal Hygiene and patient mobility Medication Administration- Parental and Non-Parental Medications IV access and medication administration Catheter skills- Foley Insertion and Removal, Straight Catheter Insertion, and external catheter care Airway management including Tracheostomy Care and suctioning Enteral feedings and Medication Administration Diabetes management and Administering Insulin Infection control including Handwashing and Personal Protective Equipment Surgical asepsis, Wound Car,e and Drain Maintenance Vital Signs Assessment Skills (Adult and pediatric) Elimination Skills- enemas and ostomies Nasogastric tube insertion and removal Blood Administration Closed-Chest Drainage Specimen collections

This is an in‑person, on‑campus, non‑remote position.
