Wolters Kluwer Health has announced the launch of Lippincott® Partnership for Nursing Education and Testing, boasting virtual simulation, leading courseware and best-in-class consulting, as well as advanced testing and assessment to meet the needs of nursing schools’ innovative curriculums. With the integration of NurseTim® / NurseThink® now complete, Wolters Kluwer provides a full curriculum suite of educational products and services for the nation’s leading prelicensure nursing programs.
As new nurses enter the workforce, many of them aren’t sufficiently prepared for real-world patient care. In fact, just 11% of students transitioning to practice were evaluated as practice ready. Compounding the broader challenges of the present nursing shortage, the nursing profession critically needs nursing graduates who enter practice with confidence and well-developed clinical judgment skills.
With the launch of Lippincott Partnership for Nursing Education and Testing, nursing programs of any size can now adopt Lippincott, NurseTim and NurseThink products across their entire program in three convenient packages, with a variety of options to add expert consulting and implementation services. This mix of education solutions and expertise supports both faculty development and nursing program success—from higher NCLEX® pass rates to more practice-ready nurses at graduation.
Leaders at the University of Rochester School of Nursing developed strategic objectives to identify evidence-based practices and to use digital technology whenever possible to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the training that was offered. To define what that approach and practices would look like, the school assembled a multidisciplinary task force composed of faculty and experts in instructional design and information technology. To make their vision a reality, they then turned to Wolters Kluwer Health to collaborate on bringing the clinical experience into the learning environment.
Recently, the university was recognized as a leader in educational innovation, winning a 2023 Innovations in Professional Nursing Education Award from the American Association of Colleges of Nursing.
With expert solutions that include knowledge acquisition, clinical and experiential learning, and testing and assessment, Wolters Kluwer can scale to support diverse program needs and budgets. This new offer creates a cost-effective way for nursing schools to ensure complete curriculum coverage which is essential for accreditation. Lippincott Partnership for Nursing Education and Testing also equips colleges and universities with turn-key resources to help today’s nursing students prepare for the next-generation NCLEX, while sustaining student retention and satisfaction levels.
