Evaluation of the first Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing program as a second career in Japan

Objectives This scoping review aims to map the evidence on barriers and facilitators of success with accelerated BSN (ABSN) students with the inclusion of faculty perspectives. Methods We followed the scoping review methodology of the Joanna Briggs Institute for this review. The databases of CINAHL, PubMed, ProQuest, and Google Scholar were searched. Results The search resulted in 39 studies. The identified barriers were: Academic factors, non-academic factors, challenges faced by non-native English-speaking and ethnically diverse students, socialization struggles, and faculty perceptions. The facilitators identified were: Supportive environment and practices, benefits of ABSN program completion, students’ background and life experiences, innovative learning strategies and school resources, and faculty perceptions. Implications for international audience Given the global nature of the ABSN program now, findings from this scoping review and the strategies for success addressed in discussion will inform ABSN faculty and program managers about helpful strategies to support students’ needs.

Nurses are the largest group in the health care system. The current care shortage remains a global challenge in the healthcare system.The accelerated second-degree nursing (ABSN) program was first proposed by the University of St.Louis in 1971 and then vigorously developed in the United States. Its purpose is to train more nursing talents to solve the medical needs of the poor in the United States. In the past few decades, this project has been carried out by many countries around the world to solve their domestic nursing problems.As a strategy to address severe care shortages, ABSN is continuing to increase rapidly.China as the world's second most populous country, coupled with aging year by year, the demand for nursing talents, and the ABSN project just gave China effective inspiration.Therefore, this article introduces the basic design of the bachelor's degree in nursing at the University of Washington, summarizes the characteristics of the training model, and draws on experience from the basic situation, training objectives, courses and evaluation methods. It is urgent to provide guidance and reference for the acceleration of nursing education in China.
