1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Annual Program Assessment Nursing Over the past few years, the Nursing program has made a number of changes and improvements to its program offerings. Changes made to the program over the course of the past five years are all detailed in the Nursing Program 5-year ( ) report which will be presented to the Educational Program Committee March 19, Some noted changes were as follows: Summer 2004: Assessment: Discovered new nursing program curriculum had 2 semesters of Psychiatric Nursing and no pediatric nursing content. Intervention: Revise curriculum to remove one Psyc Nursing course and add Pediatric Nursing course. Requested change which was approved through appropriate committees, and college personnel, & Virginia State Board of Nursing. Provides students with instruction in all major content areas needed. E valuation: 100% acceptance by students, faculty, and Nursing Advisory Committee Fall 2004: Assessment: Students currently receive instruction & practice in safe medication dosage in a 1 credit hour course over three semesters ( 136, 137, and 236). Students and faculty evaluation indicated there was insufficient time in the 1 st one credit hour course to ensure that students master calculation concepts & the general pharmacology that must be taught. Changing the first course to 2 credit hours would enable the faculty to give all instruction & practice calculations during the first semester. Intervention: Deleted 236 from 4 th semester, integrate pharmacology content throughout the program, and added one more credit hour to 136 making it 2 credit hours. Evaluation: Students still verbalize need more time but are able to complete course with 2 credit hours. Change - 100% acceptance by students, faculty, and Nursing Advisory Committee. Requested change and approved through appropriate committees and personnel It was recommended and approved by all individuals at all levels of the college and the State Board of Nursing for 136 to increase from 1 CH to 2 CH and 236 be deleted from the curriculum effective fall This has proven to be an effective decision. During the academic year : Assessment: the VCCS and Nursing Program Heads moved to standardize the admission criteria for all VCCS nursing program. The VCCS requested that its nursing programs use the designation HUM EEE instead of specifying a specific course for this 3 credit requirement. Intervention: Provides students with the flexibility to take a course they are interested in and can use at 4-year institutions. Evaluation: 100% acceptance by students, faculty, and Nursing Advisory Committee Requested change which was approved through appropriate committees and personnel Fall 2006: Assessment: In nursing curriculum Bio 150 is listed as a fall (4 th quarter) requirement however the course is currently only offered by the college in the summer (3 rd ) semester. Intervention: Moved BIO 150 from 4 th semester to third semester Requested change and approved through appropriate committees and personnel. Evaluation: Course now aligned on program plan with semester offered by college 100% acceptance by students, faculty, and Nursing Advisory Committee 1

2 Fall 2006: Assessment: To balance summer semester course offerings by moving PSY 230 from summer semester (moving BIO 150 into its place). Placing PSY 230 into fall semester where BIO 150 was. Intervention: Moved PSY 230 from 3 rd semester to fourth semester. Requested change and approved through appropriate committees and personnel. Evaluation: Course now balanced on program plan offered by college. Change - 100% acceptance by students, faculty, and Nursing Advisory Committee Fall 2010: Assessment: Student taking NCLEX review sources since spring 2006 (ECI, Hurst & Kaplan. Report Kaplan most effective in helping them review for NCLEX exam. Kaplan Integrated (content) Testing cost the same as ATI however included in cost is the NCLEX Review course. Faculty reviewed the offerings from Kaplan and agrees it is a more comprehensive assessment method. Intervention: Fall 2010 began using Kaplan Integrated Testing. Evaluation: Too early to evaluate at this time Based on the data from the Course Reports, revisions for academic year are as follows (Overall recommendations to be implemented in each nursing course beginning Fall 2009): o Require written drug cards on standing drugs. PRN drugs cards prepared just prior to administration. Student will add therapeutic effects expected an observed. o Alternate clinical experiences written assignment papers: one paper will be required in which the student describes the learning experience for all the experiences as they relate to the course objectives role of the RN and the Nursing Process. o Add ATI testing results to course reports o Strengthen integration of community health and based care in curriculum. Include test questions on this content in each course. o Track med admin experience for each student-ann will create form to track o All clinical assignments will be 2-6 hour shifts per week o Service Learning: N111 students are required to write a paper in which they seek an article about service learning and define service learning. Group projects will be assigned under supervision of clinical faculty. N170 plan identification for Service Learning will be required. The record of student Service Learning activities and verification of attendance forms will be maintained in the students clinical folder each course. The clinical instructor will approve the activities planned for that semester. A minimum of 10 hours is expected each semester (total of 4 semesters) with minimum of 30 hours total being the expectation. L. Chitwood suggested that the Service Learning activities planned be based on the students assessment of their community. o Changes to handbook: Add Faculty-Student Liaison committee In 2006, the VCCS approved five national nursing testing agencies the nursing programs could use to conduct admission and content testing in their program after review of the various agencies the PDC nursing program began using Assessment Technologies Institute (ATI). This testing service provided everything the nursing program required to assist the nursing students mastery of core content except an NCLEX Review course. In an effort to provide the students will all the tools possible to successfully pass the NCLEX exam the nursing faulty set up several 2

3 review courses for the students using different agencies. Based on feedback for graduates it was determined the best course to offer was the Kaplan Review. After presentations on their assessment offerings at the VCCS Nursing Program Head meeting held summer 2009, the PDC nursing faculty with support for its advisory committee agreed to change form the ATI assessments to the Kaplan Assessment. At this time we will continue to administer the ATI Nursing Admission (TEAS) test. The rationale is that the Kaplan test requires knowledge of anatomy and physiology and the ATI test requires general biology knowledge. The nursing program admission requirement is general biology. Therefore, at this time we will continue to administer the ATI TEAS Admission Test. Both of these testing services provide online student specific remediation and retesting as a component of student success. Students who do not score at or above the proficient level are required to complete remediation and retest until they demonstrate content mastery at a specific level. Remediation must be completed prior to the start of the next nursing course. The Virginia Community College System (VCCS) Policy 2.5 states that local citizens curricular advisory committees must be utilized to assist in development of all occupational/technical curricula and courses. Members for these local advisory committees are recommended by each program head to the community college president and then to the Local College Board for approval. Each local program advisory committee acts in an advisory capacity to the program head and shall meet as needed or at least once annually. In addition to recruitment and promoting an understanding of the community college, its assessment and evaluation duties include: Assisting the community college in the establishment of occupational/technical programs and curricula by: (a) Helping to identify present and future occupational needs within the college region and the skills and knowledge required by prospective employees; (b) Advising the community college concerning employment practices, specific certification and licensure requirements, job entry educational levels required by business, industry and the professions, standards and regulations relating to student employment, and occupational placement of graduates; (c) Reviewing and submitting recommendations regarding specific program and curricular proposals, and specialized equipment and facility requirements for new or innovative programs. Participate in the evaluation of community college programs as they relate to the educational and occupational needs of the region. As a result, the Nursing Advisory Committee plays a large part in discussions regarding student and graduate progress and make recommendations to improve the program. The Nursing faculty also plays a major role in the assessment of its students by using rubrics in the evaluation of various projects and clinical proficiency. The final action plans are based on the approval of both groups, and as appropriate the College Educational Planning Committee, College Board, and the Virginia State Board of Nursing. 3

4 Academic Dean s Analysis and Response: By any measure used the Nursing Program is well run. The only item, which is being worked on, is the pass rate for the RN exam has not been sustained at a level of 80% or more. The Nursing faculty is in the process of implementing systems to ensure higher pass rates in the future. Items that have been mentioned that would help with the RN pass rates are simulation hardware and software. I recommend that the faculty incorporate these findings when preparing their budget request for the College. All in all this is an excellent program. 4

25 PAUL D. CAMP COMMUNITY COLLEGE SING PROGRAM 111: CLINICAL EVALUATION TOOL Introduction Clinical Experience is a required component of nursing courses. The experience is provided so that students can apply knowledge and practice skills learned in the college skills laboratory to prepare them for the roles of the associate degree nurse. The clinical evaluation tool is designed to meet the associate degree nurse clinical competencies. The core components of the ADN include: Nursing Process Teaching/Learning Effective Communicator Collaboration Clinical Decision Making Professional Ethics/Legally Grounded Therapeutic Interventions Manager of Care Safety & Infection Control Written Assignments Critical Thinker Client Advocate The clinical evaluation tool delineates expected and critical clinical behaviors of the clinical experience. Evaluation Process The goals of the clinical evaluation process are to: Determine whether the student has sufficient knowledge for the established level of practice. Determine whether the student is performing treatments and procedures effectively and safely. Provide feedback to encourage behaviors associated with professional nursing practice. Clinical Behaviors Each nursing course has a clinical evaluation tool with identified student behaviors. Critical behaviors are those aspects of nursing care, which are crucial to the client s physical and psychological well-being and are identified with an asterisk (*). The clinical instructor uses the following scale to evaluate weekly performance of clinical behaviors: 3 Student consistently functions independently without supporting cues or requires minimal prompting. Continues to update self & uses instructor guidance with growing independence. 2 Student functions with supervision, requiring occasional prompting &/or supporting cues 1 Student functions with assistance, requiring frequent instructor verbal prompting & occasional physical directive cues 0 Student functions dependently, requires continuous verbal & physical cues N/O Not observed by the instructor N/A Not applicable The weekly evaluation is shared with the student who is asked to initial the form. Each student is encouraged to conduct self-evaluation using the same evaluation form. A summary evaluation is written at the completion of the clinical rotation. The summary evaluation is satisfactory or unsatisfactory. No letter or numerical grades are given. In order to receive a satisfactory summary evaluation, the student must be performing at a level 2 or better in each of the critical behaviors by the end of the course.
