title: Educators' responses to changes in the health care system.
abstract: A survey was conducted to identity programmatic/curricular changes made by New York state nursing schools in response to the changing health care environment and to identity the success of job placement for new graduates. Data were reported for 84 programs. Respondents indicated that innovative curriculum initiatives were employed, such as increasing community experiences and primary health care content. Opportunities for job placement were enhanced by a number of strategies, including resume writing and job interviewing workshops.
