Attacking the nursing shortage from within: the Columbia model.
This paper discusses a three-pronged approach to easing the crises of the nursing shortage from within the profession. Its premise is that it is necessary to develop, test, and evaluate models that have the potential to change the education of students, the reward systems for the nursing profession, and the delivery of nursing services. The initiatives developed to address these concerns are faculty practice, the clinical preceptorship, and the accelerated master's program.
