The gap between nursing practice and education has its historical roots in the separation of nursing schools from the control of hospitals to which they were attached.
At the time when schools of nursing were operated by hospital, it was the students who largely staffed the wards and learned the practice of nursing under the guidance of the nursing staff.
However, service needs often took precedence over students’ learning needs.
While this separation has been beneficial in advancing nursing education, it has also had adverse effects. Under the divided system, the nurse educators are no longer the practicing nurses in the wards or directly involved in the delivery of nursing services, nor responsible for the quality of care provided in the clinical settings used for students’ learning.
The practicing nurses have little opportunity to share their practical knowledge with students and no longer share the responsibility for ensuring the relevance of the training that the students receive.
As the gap between education and practice has widened, there are now significant differences between what is taught in the classroom and what is practiced in the service settings.
The need for greater collaboration between nursing education and services calls for urgent attention.
Several catalysts may initiate collaboration – a problem, a shared vision, a desired outcome, to name a few. Regardless of what the catalyst may be, it is essential to move from problem driven to vision driven, from muddled roles and responsibilities to defined relationships, and from activity driven to outcomes.
A collaborative outcome is the development of integrative solutions that go beyond an individual vision to a productive resolution that could not be accomplished by any single person or organization
The nursing literature presents several collaborative models that have emerged between educational institutions and clinical agencies as a means to integrate education, practice and research initiatives (Boswell & Cannon, 2005; McKenna & Roberts, 1998; Acorn, 1990), as well as, providing a vehicle by which the theory -clinical practice gap is bridged and best practice outcomes are achieved (Gerrish & Clayton, 2004; Gaskill et al., 2003)
NRC: mentor and consultant on issues related to research, methodology publications and dissemination.
'Journal Clubs' were established in the community health service on a monthly basis. The Nurse Research Consultant then worked with staff to identify, plan and implement changes to practice based on research evidence.
Christine E. Lynn College of Nursing, Florida Atlantic University, was awarded a grant from Tenet HealthCare Foundation to initiate an Accelerated Second-degree BSN Program, the idea emerged
student comes to know the organizational context of nursing practice, the multifaceted role of professional nurses, and assumes responsibility for coming to know the meaning of nursing in each unique situation.
focus from the more traditional role of faculty being in control of the teaching of student’s activities moves from the demonstration of discrete skills and prescribed outcomes to an immersion into the professional nurse role, learning to hear and respond to patient needs, and to provide nursing care to achieve quality outcomes.
The unit-based nurse acquires new skills in mentoring, exposure to evidenced based practice, and to theoretical knowledge through association with the college.
STRATEGIES:
students complete all of their clinical experiences in one participating hospital.
one full-time teaching faculty serves as a liaison for each bridge hospital.
students are actively involved in selecting their clinical placements.
Students must apply for clinical placement in the hospital of their choice via a clinical application form.
Clinical placement decisions are based on academic performance and maturational level.
Planned incentives include the rewarding of hospital nurses with continuing education credits for participation in the short-term training on educational methodology and approaches
