ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: The study examined differences between military students enrolled in an accelerated bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) program with and without medical experience and/or a previous bachelor's degree on graduation grade point average (GPA) and NCLEX®-RN first-time pass rates. Significant differences were found between groups with/without military medical experience on NCLEX-RN, but not graduation GPA. Significant differences were found between groups with/without prior degree on GPA, but not on NCLEX-RN. Having both medical experience and a prior degree did not make a difference on GPA or NCLEX-RN. Findings offer guidance on admission criteria to accelerated programs for this unique group of students.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: Student veterans enrolled in nursing programs often experience challenges transitioning to higher education environments. This study investigated faculty perspectives regarding the strengths and challenges of student veterans in an accelerated bachelor's of science in nursing program; faculty (N = 21) participated in focus groups. Four themes emerged: No Man Left Behind, Acclimating to the Higher Education Environment, Not Wanting to Be Different, and Professionalism/Maturity. Faculty perceived student veterans possess strengths and approaches to learning different from students without a military background. Integrating these strengths into the curriculum, with strategies such as team-based learning and group assignments, will leverage their skills and facilitate academic success.

ABSTRACT

Graduate nurses are employed in clinical, research, educational, and policy roles. As leaders, they are expected to develop and sustain projects that support translating research to practice and policy. Funding to support initiatives is tight and requires innovative solutions to cover salaries, benefits, equipment purchases, and other program expenses. In an effort to teach grant writing while developing skilled leaders who are effective and competitive in securing funds, the George Washington University School of Nursing offers a graduate-level grant writing course. In the summer of 2011, a collaborative learning model was developed within the course. The joint approach was foundational to securing an Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality grant to support development and implementation of a patient engagement project by the Nursing Alliance for Quality Care. This article describes the project and offers hints for those seeking to develop a collaborative educational experience that affords new leadership skills for RNs from all backgrounds.
