Assembly Bill 1295 that been passed in the United States requires the California Community Colleges together with the California State University to improve and continually implement the transfer pathway between this Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) programs and as well the Bachelor’s of Science Nursing (BSN) program in order to eliminate the duplicate course work programs. In this CSU bachelor’s degree level, there is already a quite standardization for its recognition the ADN content. Since, lacking of common nursing transfer pathway can lead several nursing learners to take into account the duplicative and even unnecessary course work programs that continually prolong the degree of finishing it and increases the educational expenditures costs of both the learners and the State.

Since, to the fact that it takes about two to three years for the ADN graduates be able to earn a Bachelor of Science Nursing or BSN. With that, about 70 percent of nurses in California have already become the products of ADN programs. These unnecessary barriers have already act as an disincentive barriers for several nurses who still wants to continue their educational learning in order to earn a BSN. California got are in need of huge numbers of nurses that are BSN degree holder in order to fill up the public health nursing positions and in order for several nursing students be able to continue completing their Master’s Degree in Nursing education that will allow them to become a nursing faculty both in the community college and even in the CSU level. At this time, about only 20 percent of nurses with ADN degree be able to forego earning a BSN and with this bill, it will be able to expand the pipeline of several highly trained nurses.

Aside of these aspects, another important portion of dealing towards the critical nursing shortage is to increase the numbers of faculty that could support of teaching several nursing learners. With the presence of this bill, it wills these aspects possible. As well, it will provide smooth transition process and even minimize the duplication of coursework program that already been completed in the community college that will support in increasing the numbers of BSN graduates for the employment in the community and for nursing career education and profession.

Its been noted that the copper building that rise at Phoenix Fillmore and even the third streets got some multiple personalities according to the ASU officials. This nursing school is not only considered as enhancement for nursing field but as well place to gather several learners for its campus schools gateway. As of now, the Arizona State University or known as ASU is wrapping ahead to the construction of nursing school in order to add up the university’s rapid growing downtown of Phoenix campus. It’s been estimated and budgeted that this school construction will cost for about $39 million. The said nursing school building will be open this coming August of this year. This five story building of 550 N third St is considered as the  2nd Phoenix building for  College of Nursing & Healthcare Innovation. During the time when the downtown campus had already opened last 2006, the educational learning institutes have already moved from the Tempe into its renovated office building at 500N Third St.

However, the 500N Third St. does not have classroom either downtown classrooms that are quite near for its capacity. Even the looming budget cuts won’t be able to resolve the space crunch based on the Arizona State University officials. Even though that the nursing educational learning institutes have plan to cuts the admission through the 26 percent beginning this fail other than the Arizona State University  is being consolidated into its nursing educational learning institutes based on the statement of spokesman of nursing school who is Terry Olbrysh. This new and latest nursing school building sits at its intersection where in several drivers may enter the downtown campus. According to Mark Kranz (lead design architect) of the Smith Group that the community wanted that got its presence. This said architectural firm continually worked on this project.

The Arizona State University nursing school had already about 2,000 enrolled learners. ASU got a total 8,400 enrolled learners in the downtown Phoenix in fall 2008. Roughly about 5,000 of them take at least one class downtown and the rest of its learners take the classes at their campuses or elsewhere. With the construction of this nursing school building, it would be entirely be a great support for catering several learners who will be enrolling and forego a nursing career development in this Arizona State University school under the nursing department.

It’s been noted for past years that the health care system in United States faces several challenges such as shortage of nurses in the different health care institution especially hospitals as a result of an aging population in the years to come and now they faces another challenge which is a shortage of nursing educators or nursing faculty shortage. The cause of this nursing faculty shortage does not stem from just one thing but roundtable deans have agreed that the money or financial resources is just a primary factor. In which, most nursing teachers or faculty usually obtains low salary income especially when nursing teachers doesn’t forego a higher educational learning that is line with its profession. Aside of that also, most nursing teachers doesn’t want to forego a higher educational attainment or an advanced degree because of the financial expenses that it entails.

As of now, most nurses dean have already seen some resolution that can be done in order to increase the nursing teachers or nursing faculty members in the different nursing schools in the country. As different nursing deans that came from different nursing schools in United States conducted an annual conference, they have tackle lots of strategies in order to lift up the nursing teachers. One of the main aspects that they have seen is the visibility and support of scholarship program and even the grant program. If it can be utilize to several deserving teachers, it could help a lot in order to make the nursing teachers obtain a masters or even doctorate continuing education. Nursing teachers are one of the top priority that nursing schools and even government in the country is seeing into due to the fact that nurses are very much in demand especially for the coming years and without an enough nursing teachers there will be no enough support that nursing learners will be getting as they will be foregoing their nursing career building.

The plan of increasing the numbers of nursing teachers who will be receiving scholarship programs or even grant is just a initial step to make in order to gradually ensure that there will be more doctoral nursing teachers or nursing teachers who have obtain a masters degree in the different nursing schools in United States in order to ensure that nursing learners will gain a quality education and training in their chosen profession.

The current recession in the country motivated several people to change their current career course or forego another career in order to find a much stable career jobs that are quite suited to their financial need and as well to their chosen profession. With that, the health care field was been able to manage to get out from the worst storm of economic challenge and become one of the reason why there are several individuals who shifted their careers or even obtain another career course particularly choosing healthcare field. As of now, the nursing school of Salt Lake Community College had already become one of the popular choices among those individuals who are looking for stability in their career course. Nursing course program become a huge demand in the healthcare system in the country and even recession has nothing to do with opening several job vacancies for nursing field or profession in the different healthcare institutes especially to the different hospitals in the United States.

The current nursing shortage in the country created a huge demand for several individuals to gain a secure job employment as long they will be obtaining nursing course program. With that, it motivates several learners to forego a nursing career education. According to Dr. Joyce Barra who is the current division chair of nursing program at this S.L.C.C. stated that economic recession provides solution in easing up the nursing shortage in the country. Since, those people who haven’t gained any employment are returning to school and forego a nursing education whether as being part time or full time student. But Dr. Barra stated that things will be changing once the economy will be rebounding. With that, the college schools are now trying to admit several learners into their nursing program. Currently, the Salt Lake Community College got some budget in order to fund several faculty positions. As a result, they can only admit limited numbers of learners. As of now, the school is looking some other options in order to fill this need.

Last year, Salt Lake Community College had just started an online program just this last semester. Since, there are looking for some venue in changing the curriculum in order for those nursing learners who got a full time jobs be still be able to study as part time learners. Regardless of what kind of route that you’ll be taking, it’s quite necessary to first complete this number of prerequisites that includes the human anatomy and even chemistry. Once, the nursing campus schools especially Salt Lake Community had already accepted the requirements, there’s a need to wait for about two or three years in order to step foot into classroom setting lectures. Since, the coursework is combine two setting which is working inside the classroom and doing clinical work in the different hospital or serve as an assistant living facility.
