The Capital and Coast DEU Philosophy
The Dedicated Education Unit (DEU) model of clinical teaching and learning is a partnership between organisations, the education provider Massey University (Massey),,Victoria University and Whitireia New Zealand (Whitireia) and Capital and Coast.. Collaboration allows practice areas to provide a more supportive clinical learning and teaching environment for students. DEUs are dedicated to supporting nursing students on clinical placement encouraging incidental and intentional learning modes, and peer teaching. The DEU is based on an Australian model and offers an alternative to the Preceptorship model to focus on student learning and curriculum integration.
