A clinical ladder program was introduced in a 257-bed facility 20 years ago. The program, developed by nurses for nurses, has evolved as integral to the facility's recruitment and retention, professional development, and evidence-based practice initiatives. This clinical ladder program has been used to encourage staff nurses to reach outside of their comfort zone to develop new skills. In this way, it has served as a means to identify leadership potential as a tool toward succession planning. The program provided evidence for the institution's Magnet designation (2004) and again for its bid for redesignation in 2008.
20年前，一家拥有257张床位的医疗机构引入了临床阶梯计划。该计划由护士为护士制定，已发展成为该机构招聘与留用、专业发展及循证实践举措不可或缺的一部分。这个临床阶梯计划一直被用于鼓励 staff nurses 走出舒适区去培养新技能。通过这种方式，它成为了识别领导潜力的一种手段，作为继任计划的一种工具。该计划为该机构在2004年获得磁石奖提供了证据，并在2008年再次为其重新申请认定提供了证据。 （注：原文中“staff nurses”直译为“ staff nurses”，可能是特定语境下的专业表述，若有更合适的中文对应词可根据实际情况调整。）
