Abstract
Background: Diverse nursing students have unique learning needs, requiring a social justice approach to promote student success. This article evaluates the effectiveness of the Student Success Plan (SSP), a trauma-informed, equity-centered approach to nursing education.
Method: A retrospective analysis was conducted of six nursing cohorts from Fall 2021 to Spring 2024 examining the retention, examination scores, and NCLEX first-time pass rates of students who received an SSP.
Results: For students who received an SSP, the retention rate was 93% with an NCLEX first-time pass rate of 95%. Three patterns were identified in students who received an SSP: (1) first examination of the semester; (2) life events; and (3) students who struggled academically.
Conclusion: The SSP program is a trauma-informed equity-centered approach to support diverse nursing students. This holistic approach fosters a sense of belonging. The program was successful in improving examination scores, student retention, and NCLEX first-time pass rates.
