Nurses are faced with inadequate physical assessment 28%, formulating diagnoses 56%, plans 34%, implementation 31%, and evaluation 37.5%, and communication skills 41%.

Results: Five of the 11 hypotheses of statistical p-value < 0,05 and T-Test > 1,96, including X2>X4, X3>X5, X4>X5, and X5>y, to form ISS learning model. The characteristic of respondents were 81,8% young adults, 67.9% women, 57.8% undergraduates, judging the previous training 35% was unsuccessful, and 45.8% did not meet expectations. Learning facilities that are still lacking include policies 23.7%, curriculum 23.4%, guideline 22.7%, modules 27.9%, infrastructure 20.3%, social environment support 24.2% low, organizational support, 30.0% low peer support and 26.3% low family support.
