Curriculum restructuring using the practice-based Omaha System.
Nursing programs across the country are reviewing and revising their curricula in search of the best ways to prepare nursing students for clinical practice in the 21st century. Because of compatibility with healthcare trends, program philosophy, and university functions, one baccalaureate program chose to organize curricular content using the structure of the practice-based Omaha System. The authors share the experiences of this process.
