PROBLEM. Unlike other professional healthcare disciplines, the profession of nursing has multiple levels of entry. Recently, several states have proposed legislation to mandate completion of baccalaureate education after 10 years of nursing licensure. METHODS. This article examines the proposals, statistics, strategies, and other relevant literature on baccalaureate education for nurses and the positive outcomes associated with a more highly educated nursing workforce. FINDINGS. The proposal recognizes the entry level preparation provided by associate degree nurses and is an innovative solution that offers a balance between multiple entry levels into practice and continued educational preparation. CONCLUSIONS. Through a combination of the entry level preparation of associate degree nurses and baccalaureate education, a stronger nursing workforce can be created and patient outcomes and quality of care improved.
问题。与其他专业医疗保健学科不同，护理专业有多个准入层次。最近，几个州提议立法要求在获得护理执照10年后完成学士学位教育。方法。本文探讨了有关护士学士学位教育的提议、统计数据、策略及其他相关文献，以及与受教育程度更高的护理人员队伍相关的积极成果。研究结果。该提议认可了副学士学位护士提供的入门级准备，是一种创新的解决方案，在实践的多个准入层次和持续教育准备之间取得了平衡。结论。通过结合副学士学位护士的入门级准备和学士学位教育，可以打造一支更强大的护理人员队伍，改善患者护理效果和护理质量。
