Comments: There is no mention of partnerships Engagements and economic development Should be some mention of research and clinical practice Need to refer to excellence Want nurses to take action to make things better Cultural diversity Regional focus “continuing education”? – should this be outreach? Alternative means of education?

9. Environmental Scan UMSL College of Nursing Constituents Students Health Providers Regulation Technology Suppliers Secondary Education Providers Substitution New Entrants Competitors Alliances

10. Environmental Scan Constituents: Health Providers More opportunity to collaborate with local hospitals –Nurse residency for training new grads. –Health care providers are asking us to assist in research and review grants. Actively help with research. –Clinical Partner Initiative: Partnering with local hospitals – provide student preceptors (pay part of the salary) to get students get trained –Externship – summer long intense clinical experience – this could be expanded. –NIH roadmap is putting pressure on multi-disciplinary. (research, clinical translational science) – opportunity to work collaboratively with local schools of medicine Cost of acute care is detracting from other types of health care – mental, public, elderly healthcare, etc. –Will health care providers accept DNP? Need for different type of nurse –Manage more information –Less care giving more managing the whole system –Changes in healthcare – increase knowledge that nurses need to have –Emerging trend on managing health data – nursing infomatics Changing role of nurse leaders –CNL – Clinical nurse leader – more in touch with patient care – go between -administration management and practical care –Nurse administrators are trying to be multi-disciplinary and not lose the nursing part Average length of new nurse is only 6 months –Externships can be a way to have nurse get experience –Mentorship to help new nurses transition from student to clinician Magnet status creates certain requirements –Need certain number of BSN –Need evidence based practice Competition for clinical space for students

11. Environmental Scan Constituents: Students Changing demographics –Older students (only 2% right out of high school (check this data) Have the potential to improve this with new on campus residential –2 nd career –More male students –More outside responsibility – less time to be a student Huge generation gap between faculty and new students –More questioning –Different attitude – less accountability and responsibility –Want to do less and less and still get the grade – want to know what they have to know. –Why chose nursing – “because it is a job”. (1/3 of students) –More parental involvement – advisors get more phone calls from parents (primarily new freshman) –More used to technology – need to be entertained –More distractions to students in the form of new electronic devices Growing financial burden on students Growing trend for nurses who want to get more involved in research and teaching earlier in their careers. Lack of understanding of code of behavior / ethics Have students adjusted to online learning? (some do well, some do not – dependent on how it is set up –needs interaction) More funding for students from tuition reimbursement – (trend to include doctoral program ie BJC)

12. Environmental Scan Competitors Every place wants to have Doctoral education –Will increase competition for students, faculty –SLU is starting DNP 9/08 –SLU has several full ride scholarships for Doctoral students –UMKC – DNP and PhD on line (started this fall) Increased number of online programs that we have to compete with. –More post masters programs on line. Multiple entry and exit programs Adapting to new demographics –Many offer weekend and evening classes that appeal to current demographics –Need for more flexibility More / cheaper alternatives –Community colleges will be offering 4 year degrees (already happening in Illinois) –Can become a nurse at Devry now –Medical assistants are a growing trend Eleven pre-licensor programs in the area. If shortage in nurses begins to dissipate this will be a problem. Our tuition cost is high (4 semesters at $27,000) Lack of scholarships and incentives at UMSL makes it difficult to compete with “cheaper’ schools.

13. Environmental Scan Supplier Most pre-licensor students enter from community college. If Community College offers BS degree this will impact student coming to UMSL More returning students from 4 year institutions Accelerated: some have tried one or more careers before coming MSN program is very competitive –Can recruit from our own BSN graduates. Educator track is improving – going on line Regulation Board score minimum will increase DNP issue – by 2015 all practitioners will need to have DNP –Potential to offer post masters approach to DNP –Preparation of DNP is under discussion nationally. –DNP programs will be accredited

14. Environmental Scan Substitution Robot / remote automation Technology Demand by students to have 24/7 technical help More use of hand held technology. –Textbooks downloaded onto handhelds More use of technology in the nursing profession –Increasing use of decision support technology, –More use of simulation Consumers are much more knowledgeable – impacts how nursing gets delivered. Quality assessment will become easier based on hard data Move to more genetically based treatments

15. Potential Strategic Priorities 1.School of the 21 st Century –Dealing with changing demographics –Dealing with changing demands of the nursing profession 2.Expanding Advanced Education and Research –DNP –Research 3.Collaborating with Local Healthcare Providers –Experiential learning –Financial support 4.Enhancing the Culture of Cooperation –Instilling values and professional ethic –Working together to accomplish the mission of the college 5.Funding for Sustainability and Growth
