Abstract

A school of nursing developed a process to improve graduates' NCLEX-RN scores through a committee tasked with identifying approaches to assist students in passing the NCLEX-RN on the first attempt. The process involved: (1) engaging the faculty to use current published evidence; and (2) conducting an anonymous survey of previous graduates to identify the factors associated with NCLEX-RN success in the school's student population. Logistic regression analysis was conducted on a sample of 165 graduates of the program. The analysis of the graduates' psychosocial, academic, and NCLEX-RN preparation attributes compared with NCLEX-RN outcome revealed grade point average was the strongest significant predictor of success. The NCLEX-RN success program served to engage the school of nursing faculty. In addition, a study of the program's graduates revealed a predictor of potential student success that can identify students who may need additional support early in the program.
