The nurse workforce constitutes the largest sector of health
professionals in the United States and includes individuals with
varying educational backgrounds and expertise. Like other health
professions, nursing includes a large number of specialties and
subspecialties. Nurses may seek certification, based on various
standards and criteria, from a wide range of organizations.
Similarly, organizations may participate in nursing credentialing
programs, which typically reflect the attainment of various nursing
care standards and outcome measures. It is, however, unclear how
this additional training and education affects health care quality
and patient health. Future Directions of Credentialing Research in
Nursing examines short- and long-term strategies to advance
research on nurse certification and organizational credentialing.
This report summarizes a workshop convened by the Institute of
Medicine in September 2014 to examine a new framework and research
priorities to guide future research on the impact of nurse
credentialing and certification on outcomes for nurses,
organizations, and patients. Over 100 people attended the workshop,
which focused on topics such as emergent priorities for research in
nursing credentialing; critical knowledge gaps and methodological
limitations in the field; promising developments in research
methodologies, health metrics, and data infrastructures to better
evaluate the impact of nursing credentialing; and short- and
long-term strategies to encourage continued activity in nursing
credentialing research. Future Directions of Credentialing Research
in Nursing is a record of the presentations, discussion, and
break-out sessions of this event. Table of Contents Front Matter 1
