Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally.

The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.

Area of Science:

  • Health Professions Education
  • Social Justice in Healthcare
  • Health Equity Measurement

Background:

  • The social mission, focused on social justice and health equity, is increasingly vital in health professions education.
  • Currently, no standardized method exists to quantify a school's dedication to social mission activities.
  • This gap hinders objective assessment and progress tracking in health equity initiatives.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and field-test a novel tool for measuring the social mission of dental, medical, and nursing schools in the U.S.
  • To enable schools to assess their engagement in social mission activities and benchmark progress.
  • To foster deeper dialogue and strengthen advancements toward health equity.

Main Methods:

  • Development and field testing of an online Social Mission Metrics Survey (2016-2019).
  • The survey assesses school values, programs, and activities across 6 domains and 18 areas.
  • A scoring system based on stakeholder priorities was created for customized feedback.

Main Results:

  • The survey effectively identifies and tracks levels of engagement in social mission activities.
  • It allows for comparative analysis of progress among participating institutions.
  • The tool provides confidential feedback to guide school-specific improvements.

Conclusions:

  • The Social Mission Metrics Survey is a valuable instrument for enhancing social mission engagement in health professions schools.
  • Regular use (every 3-5 years) can monitor institutional progress over time.
  • Expansion to more institutions and professions is planned to broadly promote health equity.
