ABSTRACT
AIM:
The purpose of the study was to describe the Connecticut Nursing Collaborative-Action Coalition's work in identifying and addressing gaps between nursing education and practice based on the Institute of Medicine's Future of Nursing report.BACKGROUND:
Massachusetts Nurse of the Future (NOF) Competencies highlight the knowledge, skills, and attitudes/behaviors required for professional nurses. Integrating these concepts into the educational system will prepare the nursing workforce to respond to current/future health care needs and population health issues.METHOD:
Education and practice partners in four regions conducted a gap analysis of the education to practice transition for new graduate nurses using NOF as a framework for assessment.RESULTS:
Gaps in competencies were similar across regions. However, each organization uniquely addressed curricular gaps to best prepare nurses of the future.CONCLUSION:
Curriculum improvements will provide students the advantage of being prepared for the rapid changes happening in health care.
