Incorporating simulation in nursing education can help nursing students build actionable skills from classroom knowledge. Explore two new resources to support the use of simulation in nursing education with the launch of the new book, "A Practical Guide for Nurse Practitioner Faculty Using Simulation in Competency-Based Education," and an upcoming webinar on March 27th at 2 pm ET.

Developing a strong professional identity as a nurse is essential to helping those new to the profession thrive in their new roles. Educators, how do you incorporate the development of professional identity in your curriculum?

Learn how the need for registered nurses in the healthcare workforce has inspired Janell Slavey, MSN, RN, to continue increasing and improving clinical experiences for nursing students at Michigan State University in our latest #CoordinatorsCorner! #healthcareworkforce #nursingshortage 

💼 Representative Haley Stevens (D-Mich.) and Representative David Joyce (R-Ohio) have introduced the bipartisan Stop Nurse Shortages Act (H.R. 8330) to address the pressing issue of nursing shortages. Supported by AONL, this legislation aims to make a tangible difference by authorizing $10 million per year in grants for nursing schools. 🎓 The funds will empower nursing schools to establish, expand, or bolster accelerated nursing degree programs. As AONL CEO Robyn Begley, DNP, RN, highlights, "Accelerated nursing programs provide a streamlined pathway for individuals... to transition into nursing." 🌟 With provisions to support faculty, preceptors, and clinical training sites, this bill aims to strengthen the foundation of nursing education while addressing the critical shortage of nurses and bring unique perspectives to patient care! https://lnkd.in/g9hmWK43

How can academia help to grow—and sustain—a robust nursing workforce? Health care executives, nurses on the front lines, and nurse educators agree the nursing profession is in crisis. Personnel shortages are the number one concern of health care executives today, replacing even “financial concerns,” which have been executives’ top worry for nearly two decades. Estimates of the number of nurses contemplating resignation range from 29% to 66%. A panel paper from the 2022 Emory Business Case for Nursing Summit examines academia’s role in ensuring an adequate supply of nurses—not through graduation counts alone, but through an understanding of academia’s long-term influence on nurses’ ability to stay in practice. Based on panel discussions, the paper proposes three strategies to help grow and sustain the nursing workforce: 1. Teach nursing and interprofessional students (i.e., future health system leaders) about nursing value: this can help to protect nursing workforce interests and encourage nursing-centered financial decisions in health systems 2. Safeguard the financial health of students and faculty: this can help to reduce the turnover of new nurses due to financial stress and help to attract enough faculty to teach large nursing cohorts; and 3. Work with regulatory bodies to enable academic innovations: this can help to remove regulatory roadblocks to education models aimed at increasing the number of students entering and staying in practice.
