• NSST™ - Nursing School Student Tracking System   (LOGIN)

3-Minute Video Overview
Designed for any kind of nursing program, Typhon Group's Nursing School Student Tracking (NSST) System is a comprehensive web application for tracking each student's clinical competencies and skills that are achieved during their clinical rotations.  In addition to the skills tracker, a complete evaluation instrument is also integrated into the system.  NSST was originally developed with the assistance of the College of Nursing at The University of Illinois at Chicago, but can be easily customized to meet the needs of your program.

Program directors, faculty members, preceptors, clinical site coordinators, and students can have instant online access to enter data and view tallies and charts of cumulative clinical experiences. Custom searches also provide program directors with further case details based on filters and subsets.

Students can quickly and easily enter all patient encounter information from one page, including demographics, clinical information, optional standardized coding languages (NANDA, NIC, NOC, ICD), competencies (observed, assisted, achieved), medications, and clinical notes. Administrators can customize various areas including course lists, clinical locations, program specialties, medication & competency details, expiration dates, time logs and optional data fields; students can set defaults for commonly used fields. There are a variety of pre-built reports, including cumulative tallies, individual case logs, and time log totals. Reports can be run by date, course, semester, clinical site or preceptor.

Information from Typhon's NSST System allows faculty and program directors to follow the progress of each student. Faculty can track whether or not students are satisfactorily progressing in their clinical experiences, thereby meeting the objectives of the course. They can also compare what students are being taught and how that compares to actual performance in the clinical arena. As a result, the program will be able to assess what areas need to be changed so that students continue to meet nationally established clinical competencies.

An added benefit of the system is that students automatically develop a portfolio of their work that can be used when seeking employment.

Because the application is hosted at Typhon Group's offices, users can login from anywhere and receive the latest upgrades and features automatically, without installing any software.  Our web application works with any web browser without any additional software, and your program retains control and ownership of your data.

An online demonstration is available.  Please call Typhon Group Sales to schedule an appointment.  And don't forget, whether you offer a two-year diploma or a doctorate program, NSST can be customized to meet your specific needs.
