Abstract

Accelerated, nontraditional, advanced practice nursing programs are an alternative way to increase the supply of nurse practitioners. This study profiles demographic and job characteristics of second degree, non-nurse college graduates who pursued graduate degrees in nursing. Graduates' sex, age, income, previous education, nursing experience, factors describing the scope of the advanced practice role, and quality of the educational experience were studied. Data were collected from 29 graduates (57%) from Virginia Commonwealth University's accelerated second-degree nursing program from 1995 through 1999. The findings have implications for nursing educators, health care administrators, employers, and other persons who plan and recruit for this type of nursing education program.

摘要

加速型、非传统的高级实践护理项目是增加执业护士供应的一种替代方式。本研究描述了获得护理学研究生学位的非护士专业本科毕业生的人口统计学特征和工作特点。研究了毕业生的性别、年龄、收入、先前教育、护理经验、描述高级实践角色范围的因素以及教育经历的质量。数据收集自弗吉尼亚联邦大学1995年至1999年加速第二学位护理项目的29名毕业生（57%）。研究结果对护理教育工作者、医疗保健管理人员、雇主以及其他规划和招募此类护理教育项目的人员具有启示意义。
