Programs that address the transition from practical/vocational
nursing to Baccalaureate nursing were virtually nonexistent two
years ago; today there are 155 such programs, a number that
continues to increase. This is the first text to address the
specific educational needs of students transitioning from LPN/LVN
to BSN and professional practice. Comprehensive and user-friendly,
the text covers every aspect of role transition in the LPN/LVN to
BSN course. It is based on the recommendations of the Institute of
Medicine's "Future of Nursing" and the "BSN in 10" initiative. The
book provides an overview of professional practice at the BSN level
and examines the core, role, and skill competencies required for
the Baccalaureate-prepared nurse.
The text addresses competence in leadership and management,
critical thinking, cultural intelligence, information technology,
and professional writing, as well as legal and ethical concerns. It
focuses on the role of the RN within an interdisciplinary team,
describes the experience of returning to an academic setting, and
the challenges of and strategies for accomplishing a successful
role transition. Numerous reflective exercises, case vignettes and
online case studies reinforce content. Important practice concepts
like QSEN and the Essentials of Baccalaureate Education for
Professional Nursing Practice are woven throughout the text. A
robust ancillary package includes PowerPoints, online quizzes,
reflective questions, and case studies.
