A regional collaborative of one major hospital system and nine schools of nursing has addressed the critical shortage of nursing faculty in Northeast Ohio. This model of institutional collaboration is preparing expert nurse clinicians from the hospital nursing staff to assume clinical faculty roles in regional schools of nursing while maintaining their primary role as clinical staff. The model included the development of a recruitment campaign, a uniform application process, an online database, faculty orientation programs, and continuing faculty development opportunities. Currently, more than 240 clinical nursing staff have applied for the program. Two faculty orientation sessions were attended by more than 100 prospective faculty. Additionally, the first continuing faculty development workshop was attended by more than 170 current and prospective nursing faculty. Now in its third year of implementation, the project is expanding its scope to include a broader base of regional partners and to address the issue of sustainability.
一个由一家大型医院系统和九所护理学院组成的区域合作组织解决了俄亥俄州东北部护理教员严重短缺的问题。这种机构合作模式正在将医院护理人员培养成专家护士临床医生，以便他们在区域护理学院担任临床教员角色，同时保留其作为临床工作人员的主要角色。该模式包括开展招聘活动、统一申请流程、建立在线数据库、提供教员入职培训项目以及持续的教员发展机会。目前，已有240多名临床护理人员申请该项目。100多名准教员参加了两次教员入职培训课程。此外，170多名现任和准护理教员参加了首次教员持续发展研讨会。该项目目前处于实施的第三年，正在扩大其范围，以纳入更广泛的区域合作伙伴群体，并解决可持续性问题。
