Abstract
Background
In preparation for the Next-Generation NCLEX-RN (NGN), one school adopted the use of the clinical judgment model (CJM) to improve clinical judgment.
Local problem
Faculty needed to ensure students could use good clinical judgment to prepare for the NGN.
Methods
A planning committee disseminated CJM information to all levels of the program, examined the use of testing items, and addressed the need for materials for various course levels.
Interventions
Care plans were created to model CJM thinking. Students were given CJM cue cards. The testing policy was analyzed and changed. After, a faculty survey was used to determine faculty knowledge and future needs.
Results
Faculty gaps were identified so that further remediation could be provided to improve student and faculty knowledge and utilization of the CJM.
Conclusion
Additional work is required to ensure that faculty fully understand the CJM so faculty can better teach to improve student success.
