7. The Nightingale Philosophy of Nursing 8. The OMEGA-7 Conceptual Framework 9. The Joint Commission National Patient Safety Goals (2020) • Identify patients correctly • Improve staff communication • Use medicines safely • Prevent infection • Identify patient safety risks • Prevent mistakes • Prevent injury 10. Interprofessional Education Collaborative – Core Competencies (2016) • Values & ethics • Roles & responsibilities • Communication • Teamwork Program Outcomes • PO1 Provide legal and ethical nursing care within the scope of practice of the Registered Nurse.
• PO2 Operate healthcare technology to collect, manage, and communicate data in the provision of nursing care. • PO3 Collaborate through effective communication with the interprofessional team and diverse patient populations in the provision of comprehensive patient-centered care across various settings. • PO4 Synthesize knowledge from nursing and other disciplines in clinical reasoning and clinical judgment. • PO5 Model professionalism and nursing excellence through a commitment to quality improvement and lifelong learning. • PO6 Demonstrate culturally congruent nursing care for a diverse patient population. • PO7 Provide safe, effective, and caring interventions with a diverse patient population across the lifespan. The sequence of the nursing program guides the student learning from simple to complex. The course student learning outcomes align to the end-of-program student learning outcomes to ensure learning progresses throughout the program. Each course outcome is marked with PO for Program Outcome to identify the program student learning outcome that the course outcome supports. Learning activities are directly tied to course student learning outcomes that are aligned to the program student learning outcomes. Clinical/Lab Experience The nursing program provides faculty-supervised clinical experiences to serve the diverse needs of the program. These external clinical experiences develop competencies within the registered nursing scope of practice and include providing safe, clinically competent, culturally sensitive, client-centered, and evidence-based care to promote, restore, and maintain wellness across the lifespan. Direct patient care hours reflected in the program outline are adequate to achieve identified competencies as well as course and program outcomes. The clinical/performance lab outcomes are based on the American Nurses Association (ANA) clinical standards for nursing practice, the Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) competency standards for nursing, and the Oregon State Board of Nursing (OSBN) Division 45 Standards and Scope of Practice for the Registered Nurse. The essentials of OMEGA-7 provide the conceptual framework for critical thinking in approaching healthcare and the nursing process. The clinical/lab outcomes build the student’s progress towards the end-of-program student learning outcomes and are noted as to which program outcomes they support.
