Student attrition from nursing programs due to academic failure negatively affects students, nursing programs, and the health care industry. The purpose of this retrospective study was to determine the success of an intervention plan for practical nursing (PN) and associate degree nursing (ADN) students who were at risk for failure in coursework compared with outcomes from years without the plan. Records of 384 students were accessed. A 6% decrease in involuntary withdrawal due to academic failure with the intervention plans was noted. Sixty-four percent of the PN students and 86% of the ADN students with a plan completed the program. Ninety-six percent of the PN students and 84% of ADN students in intervention plans were successful on the NCLEX(®) on the first attempt. A statistically significant difference (p < 0.001) between traditional and nontraditional students in program completion existed prior to the intervention, which was eliminated with implementation of the intervention plans.
学生因学业失败而从护理课程中流失,这对学生、护理课程和医疗保健行业都有负面影响。本回顾性研究的目的是确定针对实用护理(PN)和副学士学位护理(ADN)课程中面临学业失败风险的学生的干预计划的效果,将其与没有该计划的年份的结果进行比较。研究访问了 384 名学生的记录。结果显示,由于学术失败而导致的非自愿退学率降低了 6%。有计划的 PN 学生中有 64%和 ADN 学生中有 86%完成了课程。在 PN 学生中有 96%和 ADN 学生中有 84%的学生在第一次尝试时就成功通过了 NCLEX(®)考试。在实施干预计划之前,传统学生和非传统学生在课程完成方面存在统计学上显著差异(p < 0.001),而这一差异在实施干预计划后得到了消除。
