Program Updates Undergraduate Program The College of Nursing in fall 2013 had 179 students enrolled in the Accelerated BSN program. The goal to increase enrollment to 70 students was modified to 66 because of the uncertainty of the extension of the VA Nursing Academy (VANA) program and the need to continue within the current infrastructure. The student numbers were increased to 70 in spring of 2014 and will be increased to 80 in fall of 2014. The federal support of VANA expired fall 2013 and is now being maintained with local level support. As of September 2013, the VA and the College of Nursing entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreement that will be in place for three years, but reviewed annually. The MOU outlines specific responsibilities for both VA and College of Nursing faculty. The loss of federal support resulted in a reduction in the number of clinical faculty assignments and the number of students assigned to the VA in each semester. Still, nearly half of each cohort (approximately 40 students) will have VA clinical rotations in the first and second semesters. The program now operates under the name VA Nursing Academic Partnership (VANAP) in accordance with the national VA Office of Academic Affairs (OAA) directive. A new course review plan was implemented in June 2013. In previous years, faculty presented the review summary after completing the second offering of the course. In 2013 the entire undergraduate faculty met and all summaries were presented at one time. However, the structure of course reviews was again changed in 2013-2014 to ensure courses are reviewed following each semester offered. This method was more comprehensive, increased the awareness of the curriculum and allowed for deeper discussions of issues. Thus it will be continued in the future. The integration of Quality and Safety in Nursing Education (QSEN) and the BSN Essentials was completed prior to this academic year and remains within the revised curriculum:  The clinical evaluation tool requires exemplars in which the student can identify and discuss elements of Quality and Safety in addition to the Essentials.  There is dedicated content on this within the Professional Nursing and Leadership and Management in Nursing courses.  The Promise of Nursing Accelerated BSN Toolbox has dedicated modules that introduce a number of the concepts to incoming students. In October 2013, a new program director was appointed upon the departure of the previous director. A faculty retreat was held in December 2013, and a Quality Improvement Action Plan was developed to guide program and curriculum revision moving forward. An ad-hoc task force comprised of all BSN faculty was developed to meet regularly for review and implementation of the action plan strategies. In the spring of 2014, 15 Accelerated BSN students were included with the College of Medicine, College of Pharmacy and College of Health Professions in the Simulated Interprofessional Round Experience (SIRE) curriculum. The objective was for students to participate in a curricular model to improve their interprofessional teamwork and communication skills for use in a clinical setting. Several College of Nursing students participated in other interprofessional 14

College of Nursing

activities including Presidential Scholars, Palmetto Health Initiatives medical mission experiences, and the Interprofessional Education Fellowship Program. For the Accelerated BSN fall 2014 cohort, the CON received 425 completed applications, which was our largest application pool since opening the program. Three hundred and thirty-six of these applications were previous degree students (79%). The decision was made to move forward in increasing our admissions to 80 (86% in state). Realizing not all students offered admission would accept and pay their matriculation fees, 97 students were offered admission. Of these, 65% were in state and 35% were out of state. Out of state students accepting an offer of admission were asked to provide a $1000 non-refundable confirmation fee in addition to the usual matriculation fee hoping this would confirm their intention to enroll. The total applicant pool was 34% diverse, 20% minority applicants and 14% male applicants. Of the minorities applying, the largest group was African-American, followed by Asian, then Hispanic. The mean attrition rate for the 2013 cohorts averaged about 5.5% consistently being <10% for two years. MSN and DNP Programs The College of Nursing (CON), in fall of 2013, had 212 students enrolled in the MSN and DNP programs. In fall of 2013 and spring of 2014 58 MSN and DNP students graduated. In spring of 2014 we received 261 completed applications to these programs for the 2014-2015 year. This number was in line with the 270 received the previous year. As of July 2014 we have 106 students who have accepted positions in the MSN/DNP program for fall of 2014 (14 ANP, 13 PNP, 67 FNP and 12 Post-MSN DNP). Twenty-six percent of the students accepted are alumni graduates. Twelve percent of our students are from disadvantaged backgrounds and 6% are military. Our average admitting GPA for our upcoming Post-BSN DNP program is 3.68; for the Post-BSN MSN program 3.8 and for the Post-MSN DNP program 3.72. For the 2014 admission cycle, we have 26% diversity in our students. Table 2 represents our diversity data. Table 2: Class of 2014 MSN and DNP Diversity

For 2013, 69% of students were instate and we admitted 78% instate students for fall 2014. With the struggle to find clinical sites we still admitted 83 instate students, but of the 72 APRN students we only admitted 31 in the tri-county area and the remainder (41) in the midlands, piedmont and upstate. In 2009, our attrition rate was 25.5% and we made the decision to change to one academic advisor for program planning and developed an early academic warning system that includes a process for faster follow up to recover students. Since that time we redesigned the admission rubric to continue to improve applicants chosen and developed an online boot camp prior to the first day of class to improve outcomes. The current attrition rate is 1.4% for our APRN students. Since 2009 students have changed programs from MSN to DNP (11 students) and from DNP to MSN (44 students), however the number moving to MSN continues to decrease. The new MSN Essentials, gerontology competencies, QSEN competences, interprofessional competencies, APRN population competencies and DNP Essentials were identified and threaded into the program with program changes that were made this year. The Nurse Educator (NE) courses continue to be offered to the MSN, DNP and PhD students, allowing them to qualify for the national NFLP NE certification examination. Publications and presentations in the MSN/DNP programs have increased by over 100% this past year. MSN Program The College of Nuring in fall 2013 had 30 students enrolled in the MSN program. In fall 2013 and spring 2014 we had five students graduate from this program. With a focus on the DNP program, we are admitting fewer MSN students. For fall 2014 the college admitted 16 MSN students. This includes four A/GNPs, three PNPs and nine FNPs. DNP Program The College of Nursing in fall of 2013 had 182 DNP students in the program (this included both Post-BSN DNP and Post-MSN DNP). In fall 2014, we admitted 78 Post-BSN DNP students (9 ANP, 9 PNP and 44 FNP). This is an increase of 27% in admissions to this program. We also admitted 11 Post-MSN DNP. In fall 2013 and spring 2014 we graduated 58 DNP students from the program. This is our largest DNP graduate class to date. Seventy-seven percent of these students (34) are working in South Carolina. We graduated nine Post-MSN DNP students in fall 2013. This past year, the DNP curriculum was revised with some new course descriptions. Objectives to improve the sequencing of DNP education were implemented in fall 2012 and finalized this year. The Post-MSN DNP program was decreased to 4 semesters with updated residency and DNP Quality Improvement project guidelines to improve program organization and scaffold learning. The substantive change was submitted to CCNE and approved. The continuous improvement progress report was submitted December 2013 and is pending review by CCNE at their next board meeting. PhD Program The College of Nursing PhD program in fall 2013 had enrolled 72 students. The PhD students continue the steady increase of published and presented scholarly work. Seven students published 13 articles in peer-reviewed journals. Students are increasingly co-publishing with peers or faculty. Nineteen students presented at international, national, or regional conferences.

Five students were awarded research funding. Publications and presentations continue to increase. The PhD program has reached full student capacity based upon numbers of PhD faculty who can mentor students during the candidacy phase and faculty who can chair dissertation committees. Ten students graduated during 2013-2014 and fourteen new students were admitted for matriculation in fall 2014. The fall 2014 incoming students have impressive credentials and are geographically spread throughout the continental US, with one student living in Germany. The PhD faculty embraced major program modifications in 2014 to address the call to produce more PhD prepared graduates for the US workforce. The faculty voted to retire the traditional program and replace it with a 45-semester hour, accelerated program. The full time program can be completed in 3 years and part time program of study in 4 years. The full time and part time programs of study were accepted at the March Faculty Assembly by unanimous vote of the full faculty. Ten existing courses of the program were modified in content or objectives to match the goals of the accelerated program. The program modification will be submitted to CHE. Upon approval all current students will be able to seamlessly make the transition to the accelerated program. The Accelerated PhD program will be marketed on the website. Application criteria will include selected non-nurses who are working in a health related field. Last, the PhD program received approval to move out of the College of Graduate Studies administration. The College of Nursing PhD Program began independently processing all academic functions in June 2014. Program Outcomes Certification: For calendar year 2013, 93 Accelerated BSN graduates sat for the NCLEX exam with 83 passing on the first attempt. The NCLEX pass rate was 89.25%. The College of Nursing was above the pass rate of South Carolina (86.8%) and the nation (83.04%). For calendar year 2014 (through June 30, 2014), 89 Accelerated BSN graduates sat for the NCLEX exam with 83 passing on the first attempt. The NCLEX pass rate was 93.3%. The College of Nursing annual pass rate was above the pass rate of South Carolina (90.5%) and the nation (85.4%). Table 3 outlines the 20132014 pass rates for APRNs who took the national certification examination in the role and population they were prepared to provide care. The College of Nursing certification pass rates exceeded the national pass rates for A/GNP, and FNP certifications.

The FNP graduates in 2013 had an 82% pass rate on AANPCP and a 67% pass rate on ANCC. With an implemented change in our program with a focus on clinical and residency at the end of the program, faculty implemented a certification study guide for students. Students’ scores have improved and are currently at 100% for the 2014 calendar year through June 30, 2014. This study guide will be reviewed and tailored for the PNP graduates to work on improving scores. Of the 10 students who graduated from the PhD program over this year, 100% have full time academic positions in university settings. Attrition Rates: The attrition rates in the CON remain low and we continually meet the goal of less than 10% attrition in the overall program (see Table 4). Since 2010 overall attrition has decreased 90%. This is attributed to a newly designed student service department with program coordinators for each program and set plans of study for either part or full time work. In addition, student advisement is now handled by the program coordinators and directors ensuring that consistent and accurate information is provided.

Student Satisfaction (Goal ≼ 90%): The College of Nursing met the goal in all but two areas for student satisfaction (see Table 6). In breaking down the graduating students to the undergraduate and graduate programs, the issue was found with the undergraduate satisfaction. Ninety percent of the graduating graduate students believed they received a high quality education and also would recommend MUSC to a prospective student, whereas only 89% of the undergraduate students believed they received a high quality education and only 88% would recommend MUSC to a prospective student. When comparing the undergraduate students overall to the undergraduate students who were graduating, the current students in the program rated overall satisfaction at 94% for these areas. This demonstrates the overall improvements we have made in this program over this year to improve faculty work and course materials along with a change in clinical practice.

National Recognition The College of Nursing was ranked second in online graduate programs in 2013 by US News and World Report. Scholarships and Grants Grants The College of Nursing was proud to once again receive funding for round six of the New Careers in Nursing (NCIN) Scholarship Program sponsored jointly by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) and the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN). This new award of $100,000 provided 10 second-degree, minority students from disadvantaged 19

College of Nursing

backgrounds with $10,000 scholarships for the 2013-2014 academic year. Since 2008, we have awarded 65 NCIN scholarships. The College is also proud to once again receive the final round of funding for this award that will no longer be offered. The College received $50,000 to fund an additional 5 second-degree, minority students.  The first cohort of 20 was very successful. All 20 completed the program and 19 are employed as nurses. One has completed an MSN and three are currently in the DNP program. Two are currently enrolled in the MUSC CRNA program and one is enrolled in the USC CRNA program.  The second cohort consisted of 10 students – one withdrew from the program and nine have completed the program. All graduating students have passed the NCLEX and are working as registered nurses. One student is enrolled in the MUSC DNP program, and another will begin the DNP program in August 2014. One graduate was recognized at convocation as the recipient of the Kimberly Michelle Limbaker Award and another with the Ruth J. Skudlarek Award, both recognizing excellence.  In the third cohort, there were 11 students who received $10,000 each at the beginning of their academic program, six in fall 2012 and five in spring 2013. Among this cohort, there was one academic dismissal due to failure in two courses, one withdrawal due to personal reasons, and one modified academic degree program due to a course failure. All students who completed the program passed the NCLEX on their first attempt. All December graduates are currently employed as nurses. One student was selected for the prestigious MUSC Student Leadership Award, and two were inducted into Sigma Theta Tau.  Ten students received $10,000 scholarships, six in the fall 2013, and four in the spring 2014. Two students have modified degree plans due to an academic failure. One student was selected for the VANA program, one student was selected for the Presidential Scholars Program, and three were named to the Dean’s List. The College of Nursing is in year 4 of a 5-year HRSA Advanced Nursing Education Expansion (ANEE) grant for financial assistance for $1.4 million dollars. This grant has supported 30 NP students with a stipend of $22,000 a year for students, for up to two years. Six students were accepted this year. Three of the six are either minority or come from a heath professional shortage or underserved area. They will receive two full years of funding. Sixteen students received funding and have graduated. The remaining 14 will graduate this year. At this time, 30 students have been funded with this grant (six underrepresented and three disadvantaged), representing 30% diversity. The final six students were chosen for the 2013-2014 year. The College of Nursing provided 20 (ten full-time and ten part-time) students with $324,000 of HRSA Advanced Education Nurse Traineeship (AENT) funding this year. The current overall GPA of students in this program is 3.8. Seventeen of these students were either minority or from disadvantaged backgrounds and one was a military veteran. Seventeen of the students live or work in a rural, medically underserved or health professional shortage areas. The College of Nursing submitted the new AENT grant and has received full funding for the 2014-2016 academic years. Funding for year 1 is $350,000, and based on available funds and success in year one, the College of Nursing will receive an additional $350,000 in year 2 for a total of $700,000.

The College of Nursing has provided 31 students with National Faculty Loan Program (NFLP) funding since 2007, with $150,000 in funding ($135,000 from HRSA and $15,000 from the College of Nursing). Seventeen of these students have graduated and three were hired at MUSC to meet the on-going faculty needs. In the 2013-2014 funding period, we had 27 PhD students and 2 DNP students apply for NFLP funding. Our funding allowed us to support 14 students during this period - 10 continuing students and 4 out of the 29 that applied. Three of these students are projected to graduate at the end of this academic year 2013-2014 and 10 have requested funding for the next academic year (2014-2015). Of the three graduating students, one received NFLP financial support for four years and the other two for the full five years. Two of the three graduating students will be working in faculty positions upon graduation. Three of the continuing students are expected to graduate in the next academic year (2014-2015). Scholarships $440,000 in internal scholarships were allocated to students during the 2013-2014 academic year. The breakdown is as follows:       

Alumni Activity The Program Coordinators for the College of Nursing completed a six-month project to confirm and update ten years worth of alumni contact data. The MSN, DNP and PhD programs were able to confirm 100% accuracy. The BSN program was able to confirm 75% accuracy since many of the BSN alumni move on a regular basis within the first year. Our data reflects that sometimes they move up to five times within the first year before securing that ideal nursing position. The Class of 1964 held a dinner the night before the Golden Grads program in May. Many in the class shared stories, sang songs, and reminisced of how much the College of Nursing meant to them through the years. As a result, several large donor gifts were received that night to impart a legacy of scholarship for future nursing students. Four alumni scholarships in the amount of $500 each were awarded to BSN, MSN, DNP and PhD recipients during orientation and residency. The Bylaws of the Alumni Association of the College of Nursing were revised and approved. The Executive Director position was filled. During 2013, much of the work of the College of Nursing Alumni Board was focused on reengaging our alumni. Two important decisions were made. The first was to strengthen the Board by assuring statewide representation of our graduates. To accomplish this, the board was restructured, creating two at-large board seats per region. The second decision was to “go out to our alumni,” and engage our graduates closer to their homes. The state was divided into regions: Upstate, Midlands, Pee Dee, and Low Country, with organized wine and cheese socials to be held in a city in each region. The goal was to visit each region at least once in 2014 to reconnect our alumni with the College of Nursing as well as one another, and to recruit new board members to represent the state’s regions. The ultimate goal is to recruit a minimum of two per region for a total of eight across the state.    

Upstate (Greenville): Fifteen alumni attended the January 30, 2014 event and were very enthusiastic about the reception and the outreach from the alumni association. Two graduates expressed interest in filling the two Upstate board seats. Pee Dee (Florence): Eleven alumni attended the March 2014 event and it was well received. Midlands (Columbia): The May 22, 2014 event was cancelled due to conflict of scheduling. Low Country (Charleston): The June 26, 2014 event was very well received.

Goals for 2014 include:  membership drive  membership engagement initiatives  Thursday night regional socials – 2 per year per region  100% board appointments by July 2014 23

Recruitment During the July 2013 to July 2014 timeframe, there were 3071 inquiries for College of Nursing degree programs (1684 Accelerated BSN, 516 MSN, 638 DNP, and 233 PhD inquiries). RN-BSN Program The MUSC Medical Center and the College of Nursing have collaborated to support ongoing education opportunities for nurses with ADN’s to earn their BSN in response to the Institute of Medicine’s recommendation that 80% of RN’s have BSN’s by 2020.  To recruit for this full-time RN-BSN online program, the CON created a program for students that will enable them to work online, asynchronously to obtain education, while accommodating their RN work shifts.  Tuition was reduced to attract and compete with other RN-BSN programs.  The Medical Center agreed to offer 30 full scholarships to promote professional growth, and development for their nursing staff. Awarded scholarships will require work service commitments of 3 years upon completion of the BSN degree.  In addition to the fall 2014 30 scholarships, the Medical Center agreed to fund half scholarships for selected students next year. Other hospitals in the surrounding area have indicated interest, and would like to partner with the college as well.  Recruitment efforts have included meeting with approximately 400 nurses at the Medical Center to evaluate transcripts for completion of prerequisites, and to offer guidance in the application process.  Weekly meetings with hospital administration, and senior nurse managers were organized to formulate information sessions, transcript reviews, and scholarship criteria.  The Medical Center offered two webinars announcing the new program and a Q&A time for staff members.  A webpage was developed for the nursing staff for easy access to information related to the RN-BSN program.  An article was highlighted in the Catalyst and the Charleston Regional Business Journal announcing the program.  Letters were sent to all ADN nurses from the Medical Center announcing the educational and scholarship funding opportunities.  Nurse Managers followed up with announcements in their staff meetings, along with email blasts to their staff.  The Medical Center implemented a screen saver for all computers announcing the program and how to apply. Accelerated BSN Program The Nursing Club at the College of Charleston held two meetings on their campus involving College of Nursing faculty, staff, and students, and a tour of the MUSC Healthcare Simulation Center was facilitated. The College of Nursing targeted minority applicants by partnering with the AHEC Summer Academy for high school students, and the Ernest Just Symposium by involving faculty, staff, and students in an information and Simulation Center experience. There were a record number of students who indicated an interest in nursing from the Ernest Just Symposium, including students who were enrolled in nursing programs with an interest in graduate nursing education, DNP and PhD. 24

As part of the Robert Wood Johnson New Careers in Nursing Program, scholars were asked to identify a prospective nursing student from an underrepresented population and ask them to come to campus to attend a class, meet with faculty and current students, and tour the simulation lab. Men in Nursing Recruiting students from diverse backgrounds is important to the College of Nursing. These efforts include recruiting males to the undergraduate and graduate nursing programs. To promote the College of Nursing and encourage males to attend nursing school, our male faculty members talk to potential nursing students every month through the Glimpse in Medicine Tours designed for high school and college students interested in the medical field. Also, we target local elementary schools during career day to sow the seeds for nursing in our young men. This year a media campaign in the Catalyst and website featured our male faculty and other men in nursing promoting a career in nursing. The College of Nursing continues to support the local Men in Nursing group that provides a means for nursing faculty, nursing students and registered nurses to meet, interact, discuss job opportunities, and graduate school options. MSN/DNP Programs Two recruitment videos were developed and published on the MUSC website. The videos targeted students interested in DNP programs.  MUSC produces a quarterly magazine called Progress Notes that is distributed to referring health care providers throughout South Carolina. Gigi Smith, PhD, Director of Graduate Programs was interviewed. Dr. Smith highlighted the need for primary care advanced practice nurses as 1 in 5 persons in South Carolina lack a primary care provider and only 4.8% of today's physicians entering practice choose primary care practice. DNP-prepared providers are critical to meet primary care needs, continually improve health outcomes, and provide cost-effective, evidence-based care to patients and families. The program is innovative since it is an asynchronous online program including four on campus visits for competency evaluations and two on campus visits to defend the doctoral project proposal and results. The plan of study for the program allows students to live and work in their communities, typically medically underserved areas. This supports the students being able to provide health care to their community, many times leading to a position as a new graduate.  The Associate Dean for Academics, Dr. Robin Bissinger, was interviewed by the SC Business Review (ETV radio). The interview was aired on eight stations across South Carolina. She presented information on APRNs, the DNP program and the success of the College of Nursing with online education.  DNP faculty dispersed brochures about the Post-MSN DNP program at local APRN conferences. The PhD Program The long-term goals of the PhD program include recruitment of a diverse and early career student body and to better fuel the health care workforce with doctoral graduates. Strategies have included updating our website with photos of diverse and young students and ensuring the visibility of our diverse faculty as well as the web page on commitment to diversity and inclusion. This year, the PhD faculty voted to decrease program length and offer an accelerated program so that students could enter the workforce within 3 years of full time course work. We 25

plan to collect data that trends how these strategies support our goals to build a younger, diverse, and interdisciplinary student body. Academics and Student Tracking The Office of Academics continues to increase the number of active affiliation agreements between the College of Nursing and health care facilities in and out of South Carolina to provide learning experiences for our undergraduate and graduate students. Currently, the College of Nursing has 474 active contracts in 24 states and 347 are within South Carolina. The College of Nursing secured several crucial out-of-state contracts with large health care entities in Maine, California, Colorado, Tennessee, Virginia, and Maryland to assist graduate students with clinical opportunities. We have 1283 preceptors who have assisted us in our program, 429 of whom precepted students used in the past year. The Office of Academics houses an extensive database of College of Nursing preceptors and facilities utilized in yearly clinical student placements.  The office tracks the students’ academic progress, criminal background checks, drug testing, maintenance of appropriate licensures, code of conduct, compliances with HIPAA, OSHA and BLS training, immunizations as requested by agencies, and the quarterly NCLEX reports. Veterans Affairs Nursing Academic Partnership The College of Nursing continued to work with the Ralph H. Johnson Veterans Affairs Medical Center in a number of programs this past year. Federal support of the VA Nursing Academy (VANA) expired in fall 2013 and is now being maintained with local level support. As of September 2013, the VA and the CON entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreement that will be in place for three years but reviewed annually. The MOU outlines specific responsibilities for both VA and CON faculty. The loss of federal support resulted in a reduction in the number of clinical faculty assignments and the number of students assigned to the VA in each semester. Still, nearly half of each cohort (approximately 40 students) will have VA clinical rotations in the first and second semesters. The program now operates under the name VA Nursing Academic Partnership (VANAP) in accordance with the national VA Office of Academic Affairs (OAA) directive. In addition to supporting undergraduate nursing education through student clinical rotations, VANAP also includes support for undergraduate students accepted into the VA Learning Opportunities Residency (VALOR) program, new graduate BSN nurses through the Post Baccalaureate Nurse Residency (PBNR) program, and for post-graduate nurse practitioners through the Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Residency program (PMHNPR). Support of these programs assures quality clinical learning and practice environments as well as programs to recruit and retain high quality professional staff to provide excellent care to Veterans. Finally, in spring 2014, the VANAP Advisory Board was created to provide oversight and guidance, and recommend strategies to assure success for all four VANAP programs.

B. RESEARCH The College of Nursing Office of Research had another very productive year. For the first time in the history of the College of Nursing, we are ranked in the top 20 in National Institute of Health (NIH) funding (ranked 17th) among Colleges of Nursing across the country. We are the highest ranked College of Nursing in the state, and 4th highest in the Southeastern US. In the past five years, we have obtained 7 NIH R01 awards, and additional NIH training and pilot awards. Currently, 16 of the educator-researcher faculty are funded as PIs on federal grants. We continue to strengthen our infrastructure and pre- and post-award support systems in the Office of Research. These include: Associate Dean for Research (Acierno), three biostatisticians (Mueller, Dumas, Dooley), senior methodologist (Zapka), 4 staff (Lopez, Vining, Sanders, Greene), 22 educator-researcher faculty, an active research committee, and two College of Nursing centers (Technology Application Center for Healthful Lifestyles and Center for Community Health Partnerships), each of which has high university wide collaborations. Our grant ‘quality improvement’ process itself continues to undergo improvement, and has been regarded by SCTR as a model program. Specifically, all College of Nursing faculty have access to three levels of grant assistance and review for content enhancement. These efforts are spearheaded by Dr. Jane Zapka, and include the following: 1. Think Tank: Brainstorm possible directions/methods at the early stages of proposal conceptualization. 2. Proposals in Process: Review and consultation on an early stage grant draft with a full “shell” of all the RFA’s required sections and sub-sections and a complete “Aims” page and “Overview of study design”. Questions, decision points, problem areas from investigators are outlined by investigators. 3. Research for Lunch: Mock formal review of an almost complete proposal (close to penultimate draft) by three key interdisciplinary reviewers who are not co-investigators on the proposal (from College of Nursing and from other colleges and departments. Occasionally arrangements are made for a national or international expert). The Office of Research works in conjunction with the two College of Nursing centers:  SCTR Center for Community Health Partnerships (SCTR-CCHP) https://sctr.musc.edu/index.php/ce-about-us  Technology Applications Center for Healthful Lifestyles (TACHL) http://tachl.musc.edu/ Both centers are leading faculty developed research initiatives that strongly appeal to NIH. The majority of funded research focuses on community based behavioral interventions and technology based innovations (i.e., mobile health applications) to improve health outcomes. This strength has been leveraged, as is evident from the College of Nursing Research Strategic plan, to focus on key life transitions, self management interventions designed for community based applications. As in prior years, College of Nursing research is on the cutting edge of health care transformation with the implementation of innovative interventions for symptom and chronic illness management, transitional care, primary care, and community adoption of healthy behaviors. 29

Four College of Nursing faculty continue to lead SCTR cores: Community Engagement (Jenkins/Newman), Recruitment and Retention (Kelechi), and Novel Technologies (Treiber). Other College of Nursing /SCTR collaborators are: the SUCCESS Center, SOCRATES/K-12 mentoring program, Regulatory Core, TEACH Core, Biorepository, Research Nexus and Bioinformatics. The College of Nursing Associate Dean for Research now serves on two additional university committees (SCTR / URC Data Set Task Force & the URC Communications Committee), in addition to being given a standing seat at the SCTR executive committee meetings. In addition, the College of Nursing Associate Dean for Research is now an active collaborator with the Chief Research Integrity Officer, Les Lennert MD, having cosubmitted a pre-application for a COBRE NIH large grant. College of Nursing faculty serve as reviewers for the MUSC Office of Research Development’s Research Program Grant (RPG), K12 applications, SCTR pilot grants, and the VA REAP pilot projects. Other intra-institutional research collaborations include the Center for Health Disparities Research, Hollings Cancer Center, College of Medicine, College of Dental Medicine, and College of Health Professions, and the VA. Over 30% percent of our research grants during the past year involve interprofessional collaborators outside the College of Nursing. College of Nursing research faculty are enhancing efforts with inter-institutional collaborations, national review committees, national research organizations, and editorial boards. College of Nursing faculty have established research subcontracts with the New York University, University of South Carolina, University of Virginia, Clemson University, Georgia Regents University, University of Florida, Oklahoma University Health Sciences Center, and Morehouse School of Medicine, and multiple regional community organizations. Grant Submissions The total numbers of grant submissions and grant funding submitted by the CON Office of Research continues to show sustained growth, as shown in Figure 6.  Total of 50 grants submitted this year with CON faculty or students as principal investigators (23 grants faculty initiated).  16 unique educator/researcher faculty submitted grants this year.  Breakdown by category of the 50 total submissions: o 39 Research o 3 Education/training o 8 Practice-related

Intramural: Smart Phone Med Adherence Stops Secondary Strokes (SMASSS) (04/01/2014 – 03/31/2015) Frank A. Treiber, PhD, received fund from the MUSC Center for Telehealth. The SMASSS project is an effort to reduce secondary strokes and other cardiovascular events following an initial stroke. A significant predictor of future stroke is uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) levels. Patients hospitalized with a stroke are shown how to use and then demonstrate ability to use an electronic medication tray and Bluetoothed BP monitor which sends data encrypted to a secure server through a smart phone. The medication and BP monitoring adherence rates are aggregated to provide personalized motivational and reinforcement messages aimed at increasing the patient’s adherence to the medical regimen. Health care providers receive weekly summary reports as to their patients’ adherence to the medication regimen and BP levels. This enables the providers to make medication changes in a more timely manner in waiting for the next clinic visit. Southeastern Virtual Institute for Health Equity and Wellness (SE VIEW II) - Project 2 (09/01/2013 - 08/31/2014) Marilyn Laken, PhD, RN, leads the efforts of this center. This initiative was funded in the Phase 1 SE VIEW award as a project to promote lifelong health through healthy lifestyles and access to primary preventive health care and necessary medications. This 3-year project aims to establish Health Information Exchange (HIE) between Williamsburg Regional Hospital and one or more local primary care practices in Williamsburg County. MUSC OCIO is actively involved in not only establishing HIE in the county, but potentially linking the county with regional health care. The principal approaches are: a) developing community dialogue about ongoing needs and resources, b) providing health education and grants for local programs, c) supporting health screen/referral for care, d) assessing and overcoming barriers to health care and medications, e) strengthening the local health care delivery network, f) building local capacity to sustain these efforts, and g) promoting and assisting the adoption of electronic medical record (EMR) systems and other HIT tools by local caregivers. Southeastern Virtual Institute for Health Equity and Wellness (SE VIEW I) - (08/01/2013 06/30/2014) Marilyn Laken, PhD, RN, leads the efforts of this center. This 4-year project aims to work with faith communities, businesses, primary care providers and schools in Williamsburg County to increase awareness of causes of CVD, with an emphasis on obesity, to improve the health of citizens of the county. An Asset Map was developed identifying programs and activities of each entity to identify local resources. Practices were encouraged to join the OQUIN network to improve evidence-based care. Work-site health screening activities were encouraged and we evaluated the access to care and medications of workers with hypertension from one large company. The school district and several faith communities received funding to implement projects that provided education and screening to their constituents.

Under the new definition of translational research, which is depicted on a scale of T1-T4, SCTR/CCHP research efforts and activities focus on T3 and T4, which indicate the two levels of community in community engagement in research. T3 research attempts to move evidence-based guidelines into community health practices such as Practice Based Research Networks, Federally Qualified Healthcare Centers, and Community Clinics, through delivery, dissemination, and diffusion research. T4 research seeks to move scientific knowledge into the public sector and thereby changing people’s everyday lives where they live, learn, work, pray and play. Technology Applications Center for Healthful Lifestyles (TACHL) (08/01/2010 – 06/30/2014) TACHL is a Health Sciences South Carolina Center of Economic Excellence. MUSC launched TACHL in August 2010 with the recruitment of Dr. Frank Treiber as the institution’s Director of TACHL. One of the biggest challenges public health researchers face is the development of efficacious, cost-effective lifestyle intervention and health care management programs that can be personalized to meet the specific needs and characteristics of individuals. TACHL provides a unique opportunity to address this challenge.

Community-Based Initiatives All of the following practice faculty initiatives address health equity and the elimination of health disparities within a framework that supports education, practice, and research. • Teen Health Leadership Program Deborah Williamson, DHA, MSN, RN, coordinates the Teen Health Leadership Program (THLP) that is funded by the National Library of Medicine through the Center for Public Service Communications. The THLP is a collaborative program between the College of Nursing, MUSC Library, Communities in Schools, and St. John’s High School. The project promotes health information literacy as well as developing leadership skills, enabling the students to design and implement outreach projects to improve the awareness and use of quality health information in their community. The interactive, student-driven curriculum builds Internet search skills and engages students in community health issues through online research and the development and implementation of a health information outreach project that is relevant to their community. Simulation experiences and shadowing clinicians promote health careers. In 2013-2014 the program was expanded from a core of 12 students to 25 juniors/seniors and 30 tenth graders. For the academic year 2013-2014, the students decided to research the health topic, “Alcohol and Drugs”. The students presented to the National Library of Medicine and National Institute of Health in Bethesda, Maryland on March 28, 2014, as well as to their Sea Island community of Johns Island on May 2, 2014. Sixty-seven community members, high school seniors and administrators and staff of St. John’s High School were in attendance during the presentation. Hispanic Health Initiatives • Abrazos Anna Patton Tecklenburg, MA, is the program coordinator of the Abrazos program at Midland Park Primary School. The Abrazos program is a family literacy program that promotes school readiness skills in 3-year olds and provides their mothers with ESOL, health and parenting classes. The College of Nursing is responsible for coordinating the health classes, which aim to increase health literacy through interactive classroom activities and invited speakers. During the 2013-2014 school year, mothers in the program received weekly health workshops facilitated by PASOs, 10 BSN students and community speakers. A total of 60 Spanish-speaking women participated in the program. BSN students participated in the program by offering health screenings to the mothers in the program and by facilitating a health lesson on diseases related to obesity. Health knowledge of the mothers increased 35% over the course of the year, and focus groups revealed that mothers felt more confident and prepared in their ability to access health services in the future. Participants also felt grateful for having made friends in the program on which they can rely for health support in the future • PASOs (which means “Steps” in Spanish) Romina McCandless, MPH, is the PASOs program coordinator for the Charleston area. PASOs is an evidence-based, statewide, organization that provides a bridge between the Latino community and the health care system in order to maximize the health of Latino families. The organization partnered with the College of Nursing in 2010 has been growing ever since. The mission of PASOs is to help the Latino community and service providers work together for 68

strong and healthy families. This is accomplished through education, support, and grassroots leadership development. The program is able to provide nursing students with unique opportunities to interact with the Latino community. This year a total of 20 Accelerated BSN students in the Hispanic Health Initiatives Scholars group had the opportunity to work with PASOs during outreach and health education events. Community health workers, called promotores, support the coordinator by helping peers navigate the medical/social system and by advocating for Latino family health needs. This community-based program worked to achieve this mission through providing the following community services in 2013-2014: 5 professional/academic presentations given - 500 participants at 7 outreach events facilitated - 27 community health lessons on maternal-child health topics - 28 radio shows facilitated 8 community health workers (promotores) trained in communications and cultural sensitivity - 400 Attendees at the professional academic presentations - 330 Participants in community health lessons - 138 Individuals supported with resource navigation through the PASOs program - 2,500 Estimated individuals reached through outreach and radio • Hispanic Health Initiative Scholars Deborah Williamson, DHA, MSN, RN, is faculty for the Hispanic Health Initiative (HHI) Scholars Program. She works closely with Anna Tecklenburg, MA and Romina McCandless MPH in the organization and implementation of the program. Students are selected based on academic performance, interest in diverse cultures and community participatory action. This model program builds cultural competency, sensitivity to community needs, the ability to tailor care, and the leadership skills necessary for our graduates to address the social determinants of health and the elimination of health disparities. Their immersion with members of the Hispanic community and providers involved in their care provides insight into nursing issues of language access, advocacy, negotiation across agencies, and the social and civic contexts that influence health and illness. Ten students are accepted into the HHI scholars program each fall and summer semesters for a total of 20 students annually. In the 2013-2014 academic year 35% (46) Accelerated BSN students applied for the 20 available positions.

D. FACULTY Our aim for organizational culture is to ensure a culture within the College of Nursing that actualizes scholarship, life-long learning, diversity, service, caring, creativity, empowerment, collaboration, advocacy, equity, and integrity. To that end, the first objective for organizational culture is to align faculty and organizational resources to achieve our values and strategic goals. This year, nine faculty members were hired. Faculty who are hired without a doctoral degree agree to initiate doctoral study within two years of employment. As national changes in health care goals and regulations take place, the College of Nursing faculty provides an educational framework that strategically aligns with contemporary health care tends. The Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree, which accepted the first cohort of students in fall 2009, graduated the fourth and largest cohort to date in May 2014 (44). Faculty and organizational resources continue to be realigned to meet an increased enrollment of 27% for this program and the latest standards in curricular design for DNP programs, set forth by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, the accrediting body for colleges of nursing, including the implementation of objectives in fall 2012 to improve the sequencing of DNP education that was finalized this year. Another objective for organizational culture was to foster an environment that promotes openness to diverse perspectives, feelings of inclusion, and full participation for all students, staff, and faculty. The College of Nursing strives to maintain a positive culture of high collegiality and respect. The Diversity Committee is a standing committee in the College of Nursing. Membership consists of student, staff and faculty representatives, along with the College of Nursing diversity officer and a representative from the MUSC Office of Diversity. The Diversity Committee surveyed all College of Nursing faculty, staff and students in 2013 and developed an action plan based on the results. Notably, College of Nursing representatives are participating on various workgroups of the MUSC Strategic Plan for Diversity and Inclusion. Additional accomplishments include creating and maintaining a College of Nursing diversity webpage, hosting an annual diversity luncheon for faculty and staff, reactivating the MultiCultural Student Nurses Association, developing a College of Nursing diversity strategic plan and logic model, adoption of a cultural inclusion calendar, and establishing “Mentoring Magic� that links underrepresented minority students with professional organizations. The MUSC Excellence Rounding model was used by the Department Chair to meet one-on-one and with small groups of faculty to discuss issues related to organizational culture, incentives, promotion, tenure, resource and development needs. Mentoring, Scholarship, and Leadership Activities The second objective for organizational culture was to promote the mentorship, scholarship and leadership activities of faculty. A comprehensive College of Nursing Career Development Plan guides the development of the potential of individual faculty members in their multifaceted faculty role - teacher, scholar, professional, public servant - through orientation, mentoring, ongoing development, and shared faculty governance. This year, a comprehensive and tailored new faculty orientation model expanded several key elements to an online environment. In 72

addition, throughout the upcoming year, faculty development approaches that feature distinct activities will be implemented for multiple facets of faculty life with an emphasis on developing and refining the teaching skills of faculty and promoting scholarship. Several faculty led multiple AppleTree Society sessions. The College of Nursing faculty posted record attendance at teaching series offered through the AppleTree Society and received certificates of completion. Two faculty became certified nurse educators. Our goals are twofold - life-long learning and leadership development, in that we want to provide rich opportunities for faculty to attend development sessions, both on and off campus, to enhance their competencies in teaching, practice, and research. Additionally, our faculty are encouraged to provide key leadership in teaching, practice, and research and are doing so at the state, regional, national and international levels. Scholarship and leadership outcomes among faculty members of the College of Nursing during 2013-2014 include:  One assistant professor promoted to associate professor.  Two tenured faculty accomplished successful post-tenure review.  63% (29/46) published one or more articles in peer-reviewed journals.  72% (33/46) held professional leadership positions.  Four honored for teaching excellence at the College of Nursing Convocations.  One received the MUSC Teaching Excellence, Developing Teacher award.  One was a Presidential Faculty Scholar.  Two received the Palmetto Gold Award for Nursing Excellence from South Carolina Nurses Foundation.  Two became Certified Nurse Educators.  One inducted as Fellow in the American Academy of Nursing.  One Advisor, FDA Endocrinologic and Metabolic (EMDAC) Drug Committee.  One Member of the American Diabetes Association (ADA) Diversity & Inclusion Committee.  One Women’s Scholar Initiative, Best Practice Fellow, MUSC.  One Summer Genetics Institute Scholar, NIH.  One faculty, CON diversity champion for the MUSC Office of Training and Intercultural Education.  One senior faculty hired as Co-Director of TACHL.  One appointed to the American Nurses Association’s Nursing Scope and Standards Workgroup.  One appointed to a NHLBI, NIH Observational Study Monitoring Board (OSMB).  Four served on South Carolina Board of Nursing Advisory Committees.  One appointed to VA VISN 7 Research Oversight Board.  3 serve on NIH and/or AHRQ study sections.  One faculty was the recipient of the John R. Raymond Fellowship Award.  Two faculty received pilot grants from the MUSC Center for Global Health Research.  One faculty received the 2014 Earl B. Higgins Achievement in Diversity Award.  One faculty member named as the David and Margaret Clair Endowed Chair.  One faculty member received the Navy Commendation Medal. 73

B. PHYSICAL/TECHNOLOGICAL RESOURCES: Since the winter of 2012, the College of Nursing has been housed in temporary space at the Harborview Office Tower and the College of Health Professions Building B. The renovation, which began in Spring 2013, is scheduled for completion in late summer 2014. The College of Nursing will then return to the state of the art building prior to the end of calendar year 2014. The Nursing Technology Center (NTC) continues to provide optimal information technology equipment and resources during the year to support the College’s faculty, staff, and students. The College of Nursing’s web page is viewed as the portal for students and potential faculty. It is reviewed and updated on an ongoing basis. The NTC also continues to develop videos to assist with ongoing College of Nursing training needs. The joint project between the OCIO and the College of Nursing continued during FY14 to update and integrate faculty, staff, and student database needs. The MUSC Healthcare Simulation Lab, located on the first floor of the College, continues to support students in state of the art clinical instruction at all levels of the educational program.

Financial Challenges As the College of Nursing building renovation is completed, the college is responsible for the information technology and furnishings for the renovated building. All of these funds will come from the operating budget of the college. Competitive faculty salaries continue to be an issue for the College of Nursing. Teaching faculty salaries are not competitive with those in the private sector, especially those in clinical settings. This will continue to affect the College’s ability grow, plan for pending faculty retirement, and to attract the most qualified candidates for teaching and research positions. Maintaining the necessary enrollment to provide tuition resources to support the College’s operating budget will continue to be a priority as well. Financial Accomplishments FY14 was the second full year of the University’s transition to a Responsibility Centered Management (RCM) budgeting model. The College’s 5-year model for revenue and expenditures shows the College of Nursing continuing to remain financially solvent. Financial Summary Overall revenues and expenditures have increased, when compared to year’s past. This increase is due to two main factors. In the RCM budgeting model, the College retains all student tuition and fees generated as well as all indirect cost recoveries generated. The second factor is a growth in enrollment, coupled with a modest tuition increase for some programs. Federal and private grants and contracts have also shown a small grow. The Medical University Hospital Authority continued their support for the educational program of $500,000 per year, while also providing the first installment of support for the revised RN-BSN program. The modest increase in expenditures relate primarily to salaries to support program growth.
