Highlights
Several things that caused the problem include that most nursing education institutions have not comprehensively conducted a quality improvement model and are still conducting it partially (Pepin et al, 2017)
This study found that there were several characteristics of nursing schools selected as the samples
The accreditation status of the nursing schools based on BAN-PT in Health Education showed that 87.5% (n = 14) of the nursing schools had a B grade in accreditation, while 12.5% (n = 2) obtained an A grade
Summary
Most (90.6%) nursing education quality in East Java is still low. That is because the quality improvement process in nursing education generally has been conducted partially (random performance improvement). The quality improvement model analysis of nursing education towards competitive advantage in Muhammadiyah Universities was directly affected by the focus of learning and operational process through human resources management improvement; on the other hand information systems directly affected quality improvement and quality process components: leadership, human resources, focus of learning and operational process. In improving the quality of nursing education, the leadership role of the department, proper information systems, and the human resources management improvement must be implemented. Discussion: A quality improvement model in nursing education was directly determined with learning and operational process through human resources management along with information systems, strategy planning factors, and leadership. The rate was lower in the nursing schools with only 7.14% with a qualified internal quality assurance system (Dikti, 2008)
