The QSEN Project In Nursing Education

189 Words1 Page

According to Case Western Reserve University (2014) the QSEN project was launched in pilot nursing schools in 2007 in an effort to continuously improve the quality and safety of the healthcare system. It was recognized that in order to affect dramatic change within the field of nursing, it had to start with nursing education, and brand new nurses. Basically, initiating change at the source. Therefore, I do believe that the QSEN project was initially aimed solely at new nurses.
However, over time QSEN has become more than just a nursing education change agent. It has become a resource for practicing nurses as well. I have not referenced the QSEN initiative outside of the classroom. That’s not to say that it has not impacted my practice.
