Abstract

The study utilized a non-experimental descriptive method with a self-made questionnaire composed of two parts: demographic data and perceptions on limited clinical exposure. The questionnaire presented through Google Forms was pilot tested by the researchers themselves to know if the instrument was able to elicit responses. The entire population of BS Nursing third year students of De La Salle Medical and Health Sciences Institute (DLSMHSI) served as the respondents of the study using total enumeration sampling, excluding the researchers, based on the list provided by the Office of the Dean of the College of Nursing. The statistical treatment employed were percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, and f-test. On the basis of the foregoing findings, the following conclusions were drawn: 1) A majority of the respondents (a) were females, (b) had GWA of 89-92, (c) spent more time in synchronous sessions, (d) used Wi- Fi for internet connectivity, and (e) used laptops for accessibility of electronic gadgets; 2) The respondents had a negative perception of their limited clinical duty exposure due to the COVID-19 pandemic; 3) There was no significant difference in the perceptions of respondents on the limited clinical exposure due to pandemic when they are grouped according to their sex, GWA, teaching strategies employed by their professors, internet connectivity, and availability of electronic gadgets.
