Discussion: Regarding the learning achievement for excretion assistance, it was found that it was easy for students to understand the knowledge and significance of excretion assistance and to pay attention to safety. It is shown that students felt that it was more difficult to consider privacy, provide comfortable assistance, and implement assistance with an understanding of patient thoughts during on-site clinical training, compared to on-campus training.
