Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Nursing explores how nurses' roles, responsibilities, and education should change significantly to meet the increased demand for care that will be created by health care reform and to advance improvements in America's increasingly complex health system. At more than 3 million in number, nurses make up the single largest segment of the health care work force. They also spend the greatest amount of time in delivering patient care as a profession. Nurses therefore have valuable insights and unique abilities to contribute as partners with other health care professionals in improving the quality and safety of care as envisioned in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) enacted this year. Nurses should be fully engaged with other health professionals and assume leadership roles in redesigning care in the United States. To ensure its members are well-prepared, the profession should institute residency training for nurses, increase the percentage of nurses who attain a bachelor's degree to 80 percent by 2020, and double the number who pursue doctorates. Furthermore, regulatory and institutional obstacles-including limits on nurses' scope of practice-should be removed so that the health system can reap the full benefit of nurses' training, skills, and knowledge in patient care. In this book, the Institute of Medicine makes recommendations for an action-oriented blueprint for the future of nursing.

Download or read book Nurses Returning to Practice After an Extended Career Break written by Brandi Bates Stanley and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statement of the Problem: The experience of nurses returning to practice after an extended career break has not been well researched and must be understood to facilitate a safe return. Literature Summary: The nursing shortage is predicted to worsen over the next several years and nurses not currently practicing are a potential pool of personnel with a lower cost associated with re-education (Stevens, 2014). There are few articles in the literature on returning to practice. The Texas board of nursing identified a high risk of errors if the nurse is out for greater than four years. Refresher courses and medical centers both have a stake and a responsibility in facilitating a safe return. Huggins (2005), examined efforts to develop a program in an organization that would allow nurses to be engaged academically and mentored back into practice. Yancy and Handley (2004) concluded that returning a nurse to practice was a complex process that goes beyond a mere refreshing of skills. Thesis Statement: Nurses returning to practice after a career break face challenges that must be understood for educators and employers to facilitate a safe and satisfying return to practice. Research Methodology: A qualitative narrative study was best suited for exploration of this poorly understood topic. A snowball method was used to find subjects who had returned to practice or were in the process of returning after a career break of at least five years. Recruitment was done through a professional nursing organization, social media, and referrals. Five nurses were identified, interviewed, and audio-recorded. The grand tour question was open-ended allowing the nurses to begin, progress, and end the story as they chose. Riessman (2010) discusses the natural impulse of people to narrate experiences of life, so subjects were simply asked to tell their story of returning to practice. Following the interviews, transcripts were generated and examined for commonalities, challenges, and learning needs. Summary of Findings: Nurses returning to practice face many challenges on the journey back. The unfamiliarity with technology, difficulty finding work, insecurity, and horizontal violence are some of the challenges. Nurses who return will often develop a heightened empathy towards others and a drive to become the expert in their practice area. Returners also report a sense of loyalty toward the employer that took a chance in hiring them which often results in longevity with the organization. Confirmation of Thesis: The return to practice nurses each have a story to tell that enlightens both educators and hospitals on how to facilitate a safe and satisfying return. Statement of the Significance of the Findings: Because the Bureau of Labor Statistics is anticipating a growing need for nurses, the returning nurse is a valuable resource to meet the predicted shortage. The critical and mortal nature of the profession makes assuring competency of the returning nurse a vital undertaking. Suggestions for Further Research: Returners come back to practice with a variety of work experiences and variation in length of time out of nursing. Creating a return to practice program that assures competency while providing for individualization for this diverse group is challenging and poorly researched. The fees associated with operating a return to practice program most often exceeds program charges and is pieced together from online sources. How adept individual instructors are at this process directly affects program quality. Economically standardizing curriculum and creating organizational cultures that can facilitate compassionate preceptorships and individualized extended residencies needs further research.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this transcendental phenomenological study was to examine the lived experiences of students after failing a nursing course, resulting in the students either sitting out a semester prior to repeating the course or making the decision not to return to a program at all. The central research question for this study was “what are the lived experiences of students who fail a nursing course?” This study retrospectively examined the failure of nursing students to better understand how they processed the event, gained meaning from the experience, and found supportive measures that were useful in moving forward to the next step in their educational journey. The theories guiding this study were Knowles’ adult learning theory and Bandura’s social learning theory, with a nod to Frankl’s theory of meaning making. Participants consisted of 12-15 adult students accepted to an associate degree nursing program in the southeastern United States who failed a nursing course with a D or F. One-on-one interviews and focus small group sessions were conducted in a private conference room at a joint community college center that serves students from three different higher education institutions. Participants were also asked to write a letter of support or advice for a future student experiencing the phenomenon to gain further insight in how they survived the failure, gained meaning from the experience, and were able to move forward following the academic set-back. Data analysis was conducted using van Manen’s thematic analysis to discover the participants’ lived experience following failing a nursing course.

This book was released on 2022-09-23 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book focuses on how literate artisans began to write about their discoveries starting around 1400: in other words, it explores the origins of technical writing. Artisans and artists began to publish handbooks, guides, treatises, tip sheets, graphs and recipe books rather than simply pass along their knowledge in the workshop. And they tried to articulate what the new knowledge meant. The popularity of these texts coincided with the founding of a "new philosophy" that sought to investigate nature in a new way. Smith shows how this moment began in the unceasing trials of the craft workshop, and ended in the experimentation of the natural scientific laboratory. These epistemological developments have continued to the present day and still inform how we think about scientific knowledge"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors outline a clear vision of what nursing education can and should be and provide practical exemplars of how we can achieve this vision. This is a call for us to work together as guardians of the discipline to assure that future nurses enter the health care system ready and able to meet the challenges ahead. — PAMELA M. IRONSIDE, director, Center for Research in Nursing Education, Indiana University The profession of nursing in the United States is at a significant moment. Since the last national nursing education study almost forty years ago, profound changes in science, technology, and the nature and settings of nursing practice have reshaped the field. Yet schools have lagged behind in adapting to these changes. Added to this, the profession faces a shortage of nurses and nursing faculty. To meet these challenges, the authors assert that schools, service providers, and the profession must change. They recommend four controversial yet essential changes that are needed to transform nursing education. A volume in The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching’s Preparation for the Professions series, the book discusses key topics for the future of the field and offers revolutionary recommendations for change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the fall of 2006, almost 3.5 million students were taking at least one online course. Eighty-three percent of institutions with online offerings anticipate their online enrollment will continue to increase over the next year. Currently, online nursing programs exist for undergraduate, RN-BSN, refresher courses, graduate, and doctoral programs. Active learning strategies such as group learning are increasingly being utilized in nursing education. This research is a phenomenological qualitative study describing nursing students' experiences of group projects in the online learning environment. The data were collected by unstructured telephone interviews. Themes were extracted from the analyzed interviews. This study may assist in the development and facilitation of online group projects in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book charts the development of a whole-institution approach to university-community engagement at a modern Australian university, highlighting the pivotal role that curriculum renewal can play in organizational transformation. It describes how Macquarie University’s PACE (Professional and Community Engagement) program developed and fostered a culture of learning that has been at the center of academic renewal, differentiation, and institutional change. It details the development of the PACE pedagogical model, the establishment of the network of stakeholder relationships which underpin it, and the embedding of the model across the whole institution. Authored by those directly involved in the change project, this book tells the story of PACE, its achievements, challenges, success factors and future directions. A series of dovetailing contributions by leading international scholars of university-community engagement set the PACE story in its global context. This book adds to the scholarship of learning through community engagement, provides international perspectives on trends and issues in university-community engagement, contributes to a broader understanding of the practice and pedagogy of community engagement, and discusses the challenges and opportunities of implementing and sustaining change in the higher education sector.
