Interventions to Increase the Diversity of Nursing Programs: An Integrative Review
Background:
In 2011, the Institute of Medicine's The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health report declared the need to increase diversity in nursing. The National League for Nursing stated that nursing pipeline programs would be essential to create increased diversity. However, no details regarding the definition, construction, or implementation of a nursing pipeline were available within the position statement.
Method:
An inclusive integrative literature review was conducted. The aim was to examine interventions targeted toward increasing diversity in nursing education programs.
Results:
Twelve articles were included in the review. Similar interventions were used by nursing education programs; these included strategies to raise awareness about nursing to prospective students, preen-try preparation, holistic admissions, scholarships, tutoring, mentoring, and targeted advising.
Conclusion:
Evidence indicates interventions aimed at the retention of at-risk individuals are successful. Additional research is needed to develop effective recruitment strategies for diverse populations. [.
