Book Competency based Practicum Evaluation Tools for Family Nurse Practitioner Programs

Download or read book Competency based Practicum Evaluation Tools for Family Nurse Practitioner Programs written by Angelica Renteria and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problem: Training family nurse practitioners (FNPs) was identified as a concern within a university MSN FNP program. A major gap identified was that student practicum evaluation tools needed to be competency-based. Context: The paradigm shift from content-focused curriculum to competency-based curriculum has led to a refinement in program accreditation and increased national certification requirements. Interventions: Revision (aligned with NONPF core competencies and AACN Master's essentials), adoption, implementation, and evaluation of competency-based FNP practicum evaluation tools and training of faculty and preceptors to use the revised tools and one-minute preceptor model were the interventions in this project. Measures: Pre and post-training questionnaires were administered to faculty to evaluate the evaluation tools and their comfort in using them. A post-training questionnaire was administered to preceptors to assess their knowledge and comfort level using the revised tool and use of the OMP model in training FNP students. Results: One hundred percent of faculty (n=4) rated revised student practicum evaluation tool very effective and 75% very comfortable in using it to evaluate students. Sixty percent of preceptors (n=5) rated revised tool as very effective and 80% were very comfortable using it with students. One hundred percent of faculty reported they would use the OMP model with students while 40% of preceptors reported they would use it in most of their training while 60% would use it occasionally. Conclusion: The results suggest that revision of FNP student evaluation tools and training of faculty and preceptors on how to use these tools and the OMP model in their teaching were successful.

Book Evaluation of a Clinical Practicum Evaluation Tool to Address the Education to Practice Gap in Nursing

Download or read book Evaluation of a Clinical Practicum Evaluation Tool to Address the Education to Practice Gap in Nursing written by Johnett Benson and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States healthcare system is rapidly changing and patient safety and quality indicators continue to be of primary significance as the current paradigm emphasizes prevention of patient harm and quality improvement of healthcare delivery processes. As the nursing profession continues to make the necessary adaptations in response to these challenges, an education to practice gap has been identified. This gap, which is the inability of the graduate nurse to effectively transition into practice, has significant ramifications for all healthcare stakeholders and indicates that it is necessary for nursing education to undergo fundamental transformation. One specific component of nursing education programs, the clinical practicum, has been identified as providing a potentially effective and innovative way to facilitate the development of successful transition into practice. This Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) scholarly project evaluated the effectiveness of a practicum evaluation tool in measuring the nursing students' actual readiness for clinical practice. Data for this study was obtained from 47 Preceptor Contribution to Evaluation of Student (PCES) tools from an associate degree in nursing (ADN) program. An analysis of the data obtained from the index total results, the written comments frequency distribution and the correlation between the index total and written comments indicated that the current PCES tool is ineffective in providing the information related to students' ability to meet the practicum objectives and successfully transition from the education to practice environment. Based upon these results, a revised PCES tool was developed that will be trialed and evaluated for utilization in the ADN program in the future.

Download or read book The Future of Nursing written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-02-08 with total page 700 pages. 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.
