Types of Records II: Educational and Administrative Records

Maintaining nurses' educational and administrative records in healthcare settings, including hospitals and nursing schools, is paramount. Here's a breakdown of the types of academic records mentioned:

Nursing Evaluation

Area of Science:

Nursing Science
Healthcare Education Research

Background:

Continuing education is crucial for advanced practice nurses (APNs).
The scope of research on APN continuing education requires examination.

Purpose of the Study:

To identify the nature and extent of scientific research on continuing education for advanced practice nurses.
To highlight research gaps and inform future program development.

Main Methods:

A scoping review was conducted using the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology.
Searches were performed across multiple databases for articles published between 2012 and 2023.

Main Results:

Nineteen papers were included, predominantly from the United States.
Research mainly focuses on online continuing education for clinical competency, targeting nurse practitioners.
Clinical care competency was the primary focus of interventions.

Conclusions:

Continuing education plays a vital role in developing APN competencies.
Future research should encompass broader competencies beyond clinical care, including education, leadership, and research.
The phenomenon of continuing education for APNs is understudied, necessitating further investigation.
