- Summary:
-
This report addresses three issues concerning the ability of California's collegiate nursing programs to produce enough registered nurses to meet a growing statewide shortage: (1) the existing enrollment capacity of nursing programs in the State's public and private colleges and universities; (2) plans for the expansion of enrollments on existing campuses and the possible addition of new programs; and (3) the status of curriculum articulation between community college and California State University programs. The report suggests that capacity and potential for expansion are affected significantly by variables outside a program's ability to change (e.g., availability of clinical placements and recruitment and retention of qualified faculty), and that the State could do well to focus limited resources on these other aspects of the shortage equation and those aimed at improving the working conditions of nurses. These variables, it is argued, ultimately have the determining effect on California's ability to meet its current demand for registered nurses. An appendix contains a copy of Assembly Bill 1055 (1990), and the Executive Summary of "Meeting the Immediate and Future Needs for Nursing in California." (GLR)
