Providence College’s Post

200 hours... That's how much time the College of Health and Science, University of Lincoln saved on staff time during the recent assessment of their second-year nursing students. But how? By using OMS. The team at Lincoln looked to alternative teaching methods to engage their students and optimize their assessment processes. By leveraging OMS, they were not only able to “drastically reduce staff workload” but also saw "an overall improvement in student results, when compared to recent years." That's a win-win in our books. Keep your eyes peeled for the full case study coming soon! #HealthcareSimulation

Here's the AACN response to the recent Bloomberg reporting about the quality of NP education. I agree with a lot of their points, but do think the #CCNE should make one simple change and require schools to place NPs in clinical practicums. It should be done more like the medical model, where you know the type of experience that students are getting. It sounds like some of them are pretty shoddy, and that’s the biggest risk to quality – the actual clinical experience. I don’t care where they sit to read a text book or watch a lecture – home computer or the classroom, but the quality of your clinical experience? That’s make it or break it. Health Care’s Rebuke of Reckless Reporting (aacnnursing.org)

Each year our SPs and new hires must pass a series of workshops to make sure they are up to date with their knowledge of correct physical exam elements and communication/feedback with learners.    "We base the workshops on Bates' Guide to Physical Examination and History Taking," said Karen Schroedle, BA, CHSE, Standardized Patient Trainer/Supervisor. "For some of the exam systems, we go a little bit further based on what the educators have requested. Our goal is to make sure every learner who goes through events with our Sim Center SP Program has the same experience because our SPs are consistent."   There's also a communication workshop that includes how to give formative, verbal and written feedback, as well as how to receive feedback. If any SPs choose not to take these workshops or don't meet expectations, they are not booked to participate in any formative or summative evaluations that year.    "The return on investment in running our program this way has been a much better experience for the learners who participate in our program," added Schroedle. "We've been able to calibrate to have a pretty significant increase in inter rater reliability, and so it has proven to meet the goals and expectations that we set when developing these workshops."

Failing the NCLEX does not define our students. What defines them is their determination to keep trying despite setbacks. As nursing educators, we must consider how we respond when a student fails. Do we put them down or work to uplift and encourage them? At Archer Review, we believe in a holistic approach to education, which involves teaching the subject matter and fostering personal growth and development. We understand that each student has unique challenges and learning styles, and we customize our teaching approach accordingly. Our goal is not only to help our students pass the NCLEX but also to become competent and compassionate healthcare professionals.

If there are any Graduate nursing programs interested in offering a systems level thinking class to your curriculum, I have just developed one entitled: Designiing Health Care Systems: Nursing and the application of intentional design. Class would be conducted via Zoom and includes many group thinking exercises and seminar discussions. Learning objectives: •1. Demonstrate the ability to synthesize and apply nursing knowledge at an advanced level to enhance, transform, and improve health care and patient outcomes across broad populations. •Apply intentional design to social systems involving health and healthcare. •Integrate professional values and ethics into systemic problem solving for health and healthcare. •Cultivate in students an intellectual desire for advanced study and inquiry into systemic solutions for health and healthcare.

Post-graduation NCLEX® prep can be overwhelming—but Belmont College in Saint Clairsville, Ohio, found a way to turn challenges into triumphs. Faced with low pass rates, the ADN program needed a solution to rebuild confidence and critical thinking skills. Enter UWorld. Key Highlights from Belmont College's Success Story: ✅ Structured Practice: Daily and weekly assignments built testing endurance and reduced anxiety. ✅ Data-Driven Feedback: UWorld’s detailed reporting empowered personalized support for students. ✅ Real Results: The ADN program met state and national standards for the first time since 2008, and the PN program achieved 100% pass rates in 2022 and 2023! "Even if you just read UWorld rationales for an evening, that's like a mini content boost of knowledge," said Karolyn Fox, Director of Nursing Programs. 📖 Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/dFbt_AAy #NCLEXSuccess #NursingEducation #UWorldNursing #NurseEducator
