The U.S. Boards of Nursing (BONs) collect annual report data from their nursing programs as part of their approval process. This paper highlights the 2020 and 2021 annual report data on the effect of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on all nursing programs in 17 BONs in 2020 and 19 in 2021.
Nursing programs answered 16 questions on the effect of COVID-19 on their programs. Because BONs require annual report data, all programs in the participating states answered the questions, which included 798 programs in 2020 and 929 in 2021.
Major disruptions in nursing education occurred during the pandemic. Clinical experiences and didactic classes were greatly affected, though alternative strategies were used. Student and faculty attrition rates were particularly high in 2021.
The authors call for a national forum where nurse leaders analyze what happened and make recommendations for future crisis events. .
美国护理委员会(BON)会从其护理项目中收集年度报告数据,作为其审批过程的一部分。本文重点介绍了 2020 年和 2021 年 17 个 BON 中所有护理项目在 2020 年和 19 个在 2021 年受到 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)影响的年度报告数据。
护理项目回答了关于 COVID-19 对其项目影响的 16 个问题。由于 BON 要求提供年度报告数据,因此参与州的所有项目都回答了这些问题,其中包括 2020 年的 798 个项目和 2021 年的 929 个项目。
在疫情期间,护理教育发生了重大中断。临床经验和理论课程受到了很大影响,尽管采用了替代策略。2021 年学生和教师的流失率特别高。
作者呼吁建立一个全国性的论坛,让护士领导者分析所发生的事情,并为未来的危机事件提出建议。
