1. ATTENDANCE AT AACN’S FALL MEETING REACHES NEW HEIGHTS

Almost 500 AACN member deans and associate deans converged on Washington last month making our Fall Semiannual Meeting the most well-attended ever!  While we are in the process of posting reports and presentations from that meeting in the Members' Only section of our Web site, here are a few follow-up items:

2. AACN ESTABLISHES THE COMMISSION ON NURSE CERTIFICATION (CNC)

The AACN has established a new certification entity – the Commission on Nurse Certification (CNC) - which met for the first time during the AACN Fall Meeting. The CNC oversees all aspects of its certification functions including but not limited to the establishment of bylaws, policies, operating rules and procedures, and examinations; implementation of its rules and procedures; and allocation of budget and expenditures. For a listing of CNC Board members, see http://www.aacn.nche.edu/CNL/cncboard.htm. The CNC offers the Clinical Nurse Leader (CNL®) certification to graduates of master’s and post-master’s CNL programs who meet the established eligibility requirements. The next testing window for the CNL certification is January 7-18, 2008. The application and registration materials must be received at the AACN by December 7, 2007. For more information on the CNC and CNL Certification, contact Certification Director Tracy Lofty at tlofty@aacn.nche.edu.

3. CNL® PARTNERSHIP CONFERENCE PLANNED FOR JANUARY 17-18, 2008

Education and practice partners engaged in the Clinical Nurse Leader initiative will come together in January to share success stories and best practices related to integrating this new nursing role into the healthcare system. The CNL Partnership Conference is scheduled for January 17-18, 2008 in Tucson, AZ, immediately following a regional conference on the revision of the Baccalaureate Essentials (see item #8). Topics to be addressed at this conference include making the business case for the CNL, patient care outcomes tied to the CNL role, designing CNL curricula, effective marketing strategies for schools of nursing, CNL certification, and much more. The program also features an issues forum and poster presentations. Schools of Nursing new to the CNL initiative and their practice partners are also encouraged to attend.  For complete details, see http://www.aacn.nche.edu/CNL/futureconf.htm.

4. CCNE ISSUES A CALL FOR COMMENTS ON ACCREDITATION STANDARDS
The Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) has issued a second call for comments on the current Standards for Accreditation of Baccalaureate and Graduate Nursing Programs (October 2003). The standards by which CCNE evaluates baccalaureate and master’s degree nursing programs for accreditation are being revised to accommodate the review of Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) programs as well as baccalaureate and master’s degree nursing programs. CCNE is extending this open invitation to suggest changes to all interested parties, including university and program administrators; faculty; practitioners; representatives of regulatory, certification, accreditation, state and federal agencies; students; alumni; employers of nurses; and others with an interest in the preparation of competent nurses. The entire Standards document is available online at http://www.aacn.nche.edu/Accreditation/PDF/Procedures.pdf. Comments must be received at the CCNE offices by November 30, 2007. Send comments via e-mail to lcooperm@aacn.nche.edu or fax to 202-887-8476.  For more details, see http://www.aacn.nche.edu/Accreditation/CCNEStandards.htm.

5. NOMINATIONS SOUGHT FOR THE 2008 CORPORATE CITIZENS AWARD

AACN’s Board of Directors is seeking nominations for the 2008 Corporate Citizen Award.  This honor was created to show appreciation and provide national recognition for significant and sustained corporate support for professional nursing education. Nominees typically have demonstrated a commitment of $10 million or more over time to professional nursing programs, with that support benefitting at least three schools of nursing.  Nominations should be made directly to the Board of Directors via a letter, which must be received by December 15, 2007. Award recipients will be recognized at the Spring Annual Meeting in March. For complete details including award criteria and the nominations process, see http://www.aacn.nche.edu/MemberServices/docs/CCA.doc.

6. EXECUTIVE DEVELOPMENT SERIES FOCUSES ON STRATEGIC PLANNING

AACN’s popular Executive Development Series (EDS) is designed for new and aspiring deans as well as faculty members who want to improve their leadership skills within the nursing academic unit.  The first of two identical programs is scheduled for November 28-29, 2007 at the Royal Sonesta Hotel in New Orleans.  The second will precede the 2008 Spring Annual meeting in Washington, DC.  This year’s theme, “Strategic Planning: Key to Successful Academic Leadership,”emphasizes an essential skill that leads to enhanced organizational outcomes as well as improved priority setting and time management. The interactive nature of this conference offers opportunities for academic leaders to think about challenges in new ways and seek solutions with colleagues.  The November EDS precedes the Baccalaureate Education Conference to enable educators to participate in both events. For program and registration details, see http://www.aacn.nche.edu/Conferences/07BEC.htm.

7. ATTEND THE BACCALAUREATE EDUCATION CONFERENCE IN NEW ORLEANS

The Baccalaureate Education Conference is scheduled for November 29-December 1, 2007 at the Royal Sonesta Hotel in New Orleans. The theme “Striving for Quality in Baccalaureate Nursing Education” offers participants opportunities to think deliberately about how high-quality nursing education prepares graduates to provide high-quality nursing care. Hear Dr. Patricia Benner describe the recent national study of teaching and learning in nursing.  Learn more about how colleagues are teaching quality and safety in nursing.  Join an author of the book Teaching IOM: Implications for IOM Reports for Nursing Education to identify pragmatic strategies for improving quality education and practice.

19. NEW PARTNERSHIPS AND GRANT-FUNDED INITIATIVES

In this section, AACN spotlights new partnerships and initiatives launched by members, corporate citizens, philanthropies, and government sponsors that effectively increase student capacity, add new nursing faculty, increase student diversity, address the nursing shortage, and enhance the way education is delivered.

  • On November 5, leaders from Maryland hospitals and nursing education announced a bold new strategy for solving the state’s nursing crisis by doubling the number of nurses now educated in Maryland. With Maryland facing a shortage of 10,000 RNs by 2016, the plan calls for an increase of 1,800 in the number of enrollees of first-year nursing students beginning in 2009 and continuing into the foreseeable future. This goal will require 360 additional faculty members; faculty salaries that reflect market conditions; additional funding for nursing education programs; and, additional classroom and clinical sites to accommodate expanded enrollments. The group placed a price tag on the plan in year one of $34 million, and $25 million in the following year. After an initial investment of public and private sector dollars, organizers expect that the expansion will begin to pay for itself. See http://www.mdhospitals.org.
  • The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board awarded more than $7 million to Texas nursing schools under the Professional Nursing Shortage Reduction Program. Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) School of Nursing had the largest increase of graduates in the state in 2007 and received the largest sum of funds with $702,151. TTUHSC increased their number of graduates by 90 students from 360 in 2006 to 450 in 2007, making it the number two producer of degrees by a nursing school in the state, second only to Texas Woman’s University. “The evolving nursing shortage has significant implications for all of us – nurses, patients, health care providers, educators and the public,” said TTUHSC nursing dean Alexia Green. “Our School of Nursing is strategically addressing this critical need.” See http://www.ttuhsc.edu/son.
  • A collaborative effort between the University of Maryland School of Nursing and CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield has resulted in the development of a new regional scholarship to promote graduate nursing education.  An advanced degree will qualify graduates to become faculty members who can teach nursing students at all levels. Dubbed “Project RN,” the scholarship program will help students complete their degree within two years by providing them with financial support. For details, see http://nursing.umaryland.edu/news/2007/10-30.htm.

20. MEMBER NEWS, ANNOUNCEMENTS, AND AWARDS

  • The University of Arizona College of Nursing is celebrating 50 years of “Excellence in Education, Research and Service.” As one of the events marking this important milestone, the 50th Anniversary Research Conference is scheduled for January 17-20, 2008 in Tucson, AZ. Keynote speakers include some of the nation’s top nurse researchers, including Melissa Faulkner from the University of Arizona; Merle Mishel from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill; Gayle Page from Johns Hopkins University; Carmen Portillo from the University of California San Francisco; and Barbara Resnick from the University of Maryland. Attendees will examine current research that contributes to the development of nursing science; evaluate readiness to translate research findings into clinical practice; and advance nursing science through scholarly dialogue. For complete details, see http://50conference.nursing.arizona.edu.
  • In October, University of Virginia alumna Rebecca Ruegger (BSN 1973) bestowed a cash gift of $500,000 to the School of Nursing to establish the Jeanette Lancaster Fund for Faculty Excellence. Ruegger’s gift pays homage to her own experience as a student and the supportive connection she felt with her faculty mentors. “I feel honored and fortunate to be able to do this,” Ruegger said. “I’ve been so inspired by Jeanette as a nurse and a nursing leader. It’s amazing to me that one person can show a level of leadership that is helping to address the nursing shortage.” Others donors are being encouraged to contribute to this endowment fund to raise the invested principal to $1 million. Ideally this additional funding will be in place by the time Dr. Lancaster steps down as dean in the spring of 2008, after 19 years of service. See http://www.nursing.virginia.edu.
  • The School of Nursing at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston has received $500,000 from the University of Texas System to expand its nursing simulation center. The funds will be used for equipment and renovations of existing simulation facilities, and are contingent upon recruitment of three new faculty members through the University of Texas System’s Enrich Nursing through Exceptional Recruitment program. “Expansion of the Nursing Simulation Center will allow us to accommodate educational programs and increased enrollments,” said Dean Pamela G. Watson. See http://blog.utmb.edu/newsroom/?p=2716.
  • The Hispanic Health Disparities Research Center at University of Texas-El Paso (UTEP) has received a $6.8 million grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) that will significantly advance the center’s research in helping eliminate racial and ethnic health inequalities across the nation. The five-year grant comes from the NIH’s National Center on Minority Health and Health Disparities. “The center is well positioned to begin scaling up both the scope and the depth of our research on border health and to serve in a leadership role in the development of research on border health in the southwestern area of the United States,” said Dr. Robert L. Anders, School of Nursing dean and principal investigator. See http://academics.utep.edu/Default.aspx?tabid=5912.
  • The University of Miami School of Nursing and Health Studies has received a $7 million, five-year grant from NIH to support the creation of a Center of Excellence for Hispanic Health Disparities Research (El Centro). “El Centro will promote research investigations targeted toward health issues that disproportionately affect Hispanics,” said Dean Nilda P. Peragallo, the grant’s principal investigator. “Few scientific studies have considered how factors such as culture or ethnicity impact differences that exist in the incidence, prevalence, and burden of specific diseases evidenced by specific populations.” Read more at http://www6.miami.edu/sonhs.
