title: Designing a needs assessment survey for clinical nurse educators.
abstract: Clinical nurse educators frequently have a wide range of job responsibilities. In the changing healthcare environment, the identification of education needs must be specific, measurable, and applicable to their assigned responsibilities. A literature search into academic and industry professional development helped the authors develop a needs assessment survey for clinical nurse educators.
