A major indicator of baccalaureate nursing program effectiveness is the pass rate on the National Council Licensure Examinations, Registered Nurse (NCLEX-RN) among first-time candidates. This article highlights the scope, instructional methods, and outcomes of the remediation program at Georgetown University School of Nursing & Health Studies (GU-NHS). With implementation of the multifaceted program, the NCLEX-RN pass rate for first-time takers at GU-NHS has been consistently above the national mean among all first-time candidates. Although it is impossible to determine which strategy made the greatest contribution to the success of the program, the cumulative effect is impressive and indicates the students are prepared for the challenge of the examination and contemporary nursing practice.
护理学学士学位项目有效性的一个主要指标是首次参加考试的考生通过美国国家护士执业资格考试(NCLEX-RN)的通过率。本文重点介绍了乔治敦大学护理与健康研究学院(GU-NHS)补救项目的范围、教学方法和成果。随着这个多方面项目的实施,GU-NHS首次参加NCLEX-RN考试者的通过率一直高于所有首次参加考试者的全国平均水平。虽然无法确定哪种策略对该项目的成功贡献最大,但累积效果令人印象深刻,表明学生们已为应对考试挑战和当代护理实践做好了准备。
