This book was released on 1990 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Origins and Rise of Associate Degree Nursing Education offers an analytical history of the beginnings and development of associate degree nursing (ADN) programs and the role of the caregivers it produces in the health care system. Nurses may be trained in two-, three-, or four-year programs, but all are eligible to take the accreditation examination to be licensed as registered nurses (RNs). The question of distinguishing between "professional" nurses from bachelor programs and "technical" nurses from the associate degree programs has become an important and controversial issue in nursing. Advocates have long contended that the associate degree nurse is vital to the American health care system. This study, funded by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation, confirms this view. In recent years the Foundation has invested more than $6.1 million in the development of the ADN, awarded by junior and community colleges. Many participants in the ADN projects for the Kellogg Foundation have noted that, despite the importance of the ADN and the controversy about its place in nursing education, the literature is scattered and hard to identity. The Origins and Rise of Associate Degree Nursing Education and the companion bibliography will provide much-needed information to educators, hospital and nursing administrators, nursing leaders, and public policy makers--all of whom must cope with the growing nursing shortage and increasingly difficult issues in health policy and administration.

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.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This quality improvement project focused on associate degree nursing students (ADN) at risk for academic problems in the community college setting. Understanding the supply, distribution, and educational requirements for registered nurses (RNs) is an important factor to ensure quality avenues for nursing programs to ultimately provide competent nurses to support the US health care system. The purpose of this project was to identify themes and patterns from the perspectives of ADN students as to what places him or her at risk for academic problems and how faculty could best intervene to help them become successful. Objectives for this project included: 1) Analyze the themes of the perceptions of ADN students self-identified as at-risk for academic problems, 2) Identify perceptions of students on how faculty can help them become successful, and 3) Compare and contrast identified themes with the literature and current educational practices. The project plan included the implementation of a qualitative study that focused on the phenomenological approach that is primarily interested in describing the lived experiences of research participants. This research design included in-depth interviews using open-ended statements to gather data. There were two broad categories that emerged from this study with sub-categories that included teaching methods, faculty/student relationships, test taking skills, grading system, study sessions, encouragement from faculty, and class organization.
