Skills
The student can, under supervision,
- recognise signs and symptoms of possible serious illness or injury
- use simple standardised examinations and treatment guidelines
- plan, assess and carry out treatment measures adapted to the individual patient's needs
- assess the need to obtain assistance or refer the patient
- write ambulance patient records in accordance with the guidelines
- use the most common equipment available in the ambulance
- explore professional issues in a systematic, evidence-based and reflective manner
- document in writing and evaluate his/her own work in accordance with the practical training institution's procedures and guidelines
- use his/her transfer technique skills
General competence
The student
- can under supervision organise his/her own work and maintain order and hygiene
- can under supervision initiate patient treatment in order of priority in accordance with the applicable legislation, framework conditions and professional ethics guidelines
- demonstrates a willingness and ability to make use of supervision and feedback

Required preliminary courses
The work and teaching methods comprise skills training in transfer techniques, supervised clinical training, group supervision approx. every four weeks organised by the contact lecturer at OsloMet, and writing reflection notes.
Practical training
Twelve weeks of clinical training and one week of practical training preparations. The content of the practical training periods will vary with the activities at the institution where the practical training takes place at any time, and will therefore offer varied arenas for clinical training in terms of problems, diagnoses and complexity.

Generell kompetanse
Studenten
- kan kritisk analysere og reflektere over forholdet mellom de ulike stegene i forskningsprosessen
- kan anvende relevante metoder for kunnskapsformidling
- kan anvende kunnskap og ferdigheter innen spesialsykepleie for å bidra til implementering av fag og forskning i klinisk praksis

- kan analysere relevante fag-, yrkes- og forskningsetiske problemstillinger innen spesialsykepleie med utgangspunkt i fag-, forsknings-, erfarings- og pasientkunnskap
- kan kommunisere faglige problemstillinger, analyser og konklusjoner innenfor spesialsykepleie både med spesialister og til allmennheten
- kan bidra til nytenkning og i innovasjonsprosesser innen spesialsykepleie
- kan anvende og formidle forsknings- eller kvalitetsarbeid for å bidra til utvikling av spesialsykepleie og helsetjenesten
Teaching and learning methods
Det arrangeres seminarer der studentene presenterer og diskuterer utkast til masteroppgavetekst i et større forum. På disse seminarene kan også sentrale emner tilknyttet arbeidet med masteroppgaven tas opp etter behov.
Veiledning er en vesentlig komponent i arbeidet med masteroppgaven og innebærer en nødvendig kvalitetssikring, blant annet av at arbeidet foregår innenfor forskningsetiske retningslinjer. Ved forskningsarbeid er veileder forskingsansvarlig. Studenten(e) får oppnevnt en veileder. Det gis tilbud om 10 timer veiledning pr. masteroppgave. I tillegg får studenten(e) veiledning i forbindelse med masteroppgaveseminarene. En time veiledning med veileder er obligatorisk ved oppstart og fire av veiledningstimene må gjennomføres i løpet av 4.semester.
Dersom veiledningsforholdet blir vanskelig, skal studenten(e) først ta dette opp med veileder og eventuelt videre henvende seg til studieleder for masterstudiet.
Studenten(e) plikter å holde veileder orientert om sitt arbeid. Det gjelder også praktiske forhold som kan være av betydning for fremdriften i prosjektet. Relevante etiske prinsipper må ivaretas. All ekstern korrespondanse skal være godkjent av veileder. Søknader til godkjenningsinstanser som REK - Regional etisk komité for medisin og helsevitenskapelig forskningsetikk og SIKT - Kunnskapssektorens tjenesteleverandør (tidligere NSD - Norsk senter for forskningsdata) etc., må være godkjent av veileder før det sendes inn.
Ved ikke bestått masteroppgave, tilbys det 3 nye veiledningstimer.
