    Intentionally support your students' thinking and raise awareness to metacognition. A few ideas for strategies that help raise the awareness of clinical reasoning are to host clinical reasoning seminars for students. Fugate and colleagues hosted one-hour clinical reasoning seminars for at-risk students enrolled in a medical-surgical course. You can also give students a clinical reasoning lecture. I do an interactive student success session for my advanced med-surg students, where we discuss clinical reasoning skills and how to frame their thinking for success in the course.

    Once equipped with the requisite knowledge, faculty embark on the creative process of question develop- ment. They are tasked with designing scenarios that mirror real-world clinical situations, each question representing the challenges nurses encounter in their daily practice. This process demands meticulous attention to detail, as every aspect of the question — from the patient’s presentation to the available interventions — must align with the core principles of the NGN. As faculty learn to design exam questions that are appropriate for the NGN format, they are encouraged to think beyond the confines of traditional assessment methods.

    “I am currently working in a sub-acute rehabilitation facility where the average length of stay is around 25 days,” Gilmore said. “some residents are in the facility for months; some are long-term clients. It is both challenging and rewarding, and there is ample room for growth and development on a personal, professional and organizational level.” The complex medical and psychosocial needs of nursing home residents can be overwhelming.

    And then this person, in addition to the prescriber, signs off that the nurse is safe to practice. And that adds an additional protection to the board. So if you don't have a medical director on board, I suggest that you consider looking into that. - Just one thing in terms of, you know, efficacious medicines for opioid use disorder.

    So all of the information that's presented there will be there for the candidate. And then if there's new information, again, like Lisa pointed out, there will be some sort of information or sentence that brings that candidate's attention to the fact that there's new information that was presented and that they need to read that. And that's critical for them to answer the item itself. Hope that clears things up. - I think so. Emily, next, we have a question about process, or perhaps I should say process.

    Here, we see that NPs practice in rural, urban, suburban, and there were some differences in between two years. And we also see that, in 2012, the largest proportion of NPs were practicing in physician offices, while in 2018, more NPs were employed in practices affiliated with hospitals or some kind of medical centers. In this chart, we compare nurse practition work environment over time. So we computed in scores on each subscale of NPPCOCQ. The dark orange color is the 2012, the red represent 2018. What we see here is, it appears from this bar chart, that nurse practition work environment was significantly better in 2018 than in 2012.

    Collapsing across country, the authors separately regressed decision-making scores on four demographic variables—age of nurse, years of experience, academic attainment, and medical cover. All four factors had reliable effects on decision scores; nurses scored higher with increasing age, with more experience, with more academic attainment, and with more medical cover. It is important to point out that there were significant correlations among the demographic variables, so it is unclear from the analyses run whether the variables measure a similar underlying construct—knowledge.
