“…AACN recommends collecting outcomes data specific to faculty practice and its impact on education 1. The current study addresses this AACN recommendation and follows up on a preliminary study that examined the perceived impact of faculty practice on NP education through faculty surveys and student interviews at one university 10. Findings from the previous study, specifically the benefits and challenges of faculty practice, were consistent with the literature.…”

Background: Outcomes data are deficient in demonstrating the impact of faculty practice on education. Purpose: To examine nurse practitioner (NP) student, faculty, and administrator perspectives on faculty practice as an educational strategy. Methods: NP students, faculty, and administrators from 6 different universities were surveyed. Results: A total of 173 students, 25 faculty members, and 11 administrators participated. Results provide information on perspectives of faculty practice as an educational strategy pertaining to evaluation of education outcomes, overall education, didactic education, and clinical education. Conclusion: Faculty practice has educational benefits and brings value to nursing education, although evidentiary support is lacking.

“…Puskar et al (2013) discuss the use of facilitated discussions as a strategy for nursing students to explore their perceptions about working with patients who use alcohol, an approach that requires larger numbers of nursing faculty with substance-use-related expertise. In exploring the impact of faculty practice on nurse practitioner education, faculty credibility was identified as a subtheme in the study by Gonzales et al (2020). This point was eloquently stated by an undergraduate nursing student who said, “The theory portion of our program is the backbone of our knowledge base, but equally important is that credibility of our professors, and when you learn that ‘Hey, they are actually applying what they are teaching us, too’…that just reinforces…that the education provided to us is best practice” (Gonzales et al, 2020, p. 184).…”

BackgroundNegative attitudes toward persons who use alcohol and other drugs contribute to suboptimal care. Nurses are in key roles to address the needs of this population, yet they lack the education needed to identify persons who may be at risk because of substance use and intervene accordingly. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of a substance-use-related curriculum on nursing students' attitudes and therapeutic commitment for working with patients with alcohol- and drug-use-related problems.MethodsData were collected for four cohorts of 169 nursing students enrolled in a Master's Entry into Nursing program. Questionnaires included the Person-Centered Alcohol and Alcohol Problems Perception Questionnaire and the Drug and Drug Problems Perception Questionnaire, completed before and after completing the curriculum. Paired samples t test were used to examine pre/post differences for each measure's subscale.ResultsFour of the seven Person-Centered Alcohol and Alcohol Problems Perception Questionnaire subscales showing significant increases were role adequacy, role support, role legitimacy, and general perceptions. Four of the five Drug and Drug Problems Perception Questionnaire subscales showing significant increases were role adequacy, role support, job satisfaction, and role legitimacy; there was a significant change in role-related self-esteem, however, in a negative direction.ConclusionsThis study adds to the growing evidence of the positive impact of providing evidence-based information and skill development, which enhance alcohol- and drug-related knowledge and competence for nurses entering professional practice.

Background: Many challenges are inherent in academic nursing, and additional unique challenges exist for faculty and nursing programs that simultaneously engage in or offer faculty practice. To date, little has been published on faculty practice and academic nursing outside of the mission of education. Purpose: To describe faculty practice within the context of academic nursing as it pertains to scholarship and research, annual evaluations, promotion, support of faculty practice, and additional benefits and challenges. Methods: A convenience sample of faculty and administrators was surveyed from 6 different universities in the United States. Results: A total of 25 faculty members and 11 administrators participated. Results indicate faculty practice offers both benefits and challenges to the noneducational aspects of academic nursing. Conclusion: The benefits and challenges should be carefully considered within the context of the future of academic nursing and faculty practice.
