The purpose of this study was to provide evidence of the inter-rater reliability, validity, and sensitivity of a subset of Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) measures, including 26 found to be "most clinically useful" in a nurse practitioner setting (NPS). Selected NPS results are compared to those obtained from a larger 10-site study. Results indicated that the measures are valid, reliable, and sensitive as clinical measures of nursing outcomes. Proper education of users can enhance psychometrics. Suggestions for strengthening the measures and further study are outlined.

Nurse practitioner (NP) programs have a long history of producing safe and competent NPs; however, bold, transformative leadership is needed to set a minimum standard for quality NP education to support a 21st-century healthcare system.

There is now an opportunity to redesign healthcare systems with quality and equity as a primary consideration and DNP-prepared NPs are positioned to lead this redesign.
