Abstract

Internationally educated nurses migrating for work in other countries help address short and long-term staffing shortage issues. A transitional educational program was designed and implemented to prepare Mexican nurses with the competencies needed to work in any clinical setting in the United States. Through an intensive, full-time, 6-month transitional education program that included a living stipend during program participation, 30 out of 67 Mexican nurse candidates passed the NCLEX-RN, an English-language competency test, and were successfully placed in a hospital setting. Several salient lessons emerged from program implementation that have implications for transitions and capacity building among internationally educated nurses.

墨西哥国际教育护士过渡教育项目案例。
受过国际教育的护士移民到其他国家工作有助于解决短期和长期的人员短缺问题。设计并实施了一项过渡性教育计划,以使墨西哥护士具备在美国任何临床环境中工作所需的能力。通过为期6个月的强化全日制过渡教育方案,其中包括参加方案期间的生活津贴,67名墨西哥护士候选人中有30人通过了英语能力测试NCLEX-RN,并成功地在医院工作。从项目实施中得出了一些突出的经验教训,这些教训对受过国际教育的护士的转型和能力建设具有影响。
