To prepare nurses in providing competent care to older adults, schools of nursing at the Otterbein College and the Florida International University, supported by American Association of Colleges of Nursing/John A. Hartford Foundation, developed innovative strategies for incorporation of gerontological content into their BSN curricula. Both nursing programs integrated these innovative gerontological learning experiences into sophomore-, junior-, and senior-level baccalaureate courses; developed independent gerontology courses, including online courses; supported the development of faculty expertise and sensitivity in elder care; and established new and/or enhanced existing community partnerships. The program objectives, planning, and implementation procedures for each of the two schools evolved similarly. Faculty development strategies and examples of community and international partnerships are presented. Finally, lessons learned from the implementation of these projects and recommendations based on these initiatives are presented.
为使护士有能力为老年人提供合格护理，奥特本学院和佛罗里达国际大学的护理学院在美国护理学院协会/约翰·A·哈特福德基金会的支持下，制定了将老年护理内容纳入其护理学学士课程的创新策略。这两个护理项目都将这些创新的老年护理学习体验融入大二、大三和大四的本科课程中；开发了独立的老年护理课程，包括在线课程；支持培养教师在老年护理方面的专业知识和敏感度；并建立了新的和/或加强了现有的社区伙伴关系。两所学校各自的项目目标、规划和实施程序的发展情况相似。文中介绍了教师发展策略以及社区和国际伙伴关系的实例。最后，阐述了从这些项目实施中吸取的经验教训以及基于这些举措提出的建议。
