Background: This study aimed to analyze the health status of northeastern U.S. baccalaureate nursing students.

Method: The sample for this cross-sectional analysis included 292 nursing students. Matriculated full- and part-time nursing students were invited to participate. Most of the sample represented individuals identifying as White, heterosexual women younger than age 25 years who lived off campus. Students across all 4 years of school were at high risk for burnout and experienced high rates of perceived stress but were satisfied with their lives.

Results: Significant differences were found between housing status, physical activity, and burnout (t = -3.7926, = 154.87, = 2.13 × 10 - 5). On-campus students ( = 67) were significantly more active (t [65.8] = 1.69, = .095) and less burned out than off-campus students ( = 189, t [154.8] = -3.79, < .001).

Conclusion: Future research is needed to examine academia's role in the workforce's burnout crisis, especially concerning students younger than age 25 years. .

Method: Development of an SSDOH-focused clinical debriefing guide occurred across several phases that included defining the problem, engaging clinical instructors, consulting the literature, and obtaining validation.

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic exposed long-standing connections between health inequity and social injustice. With Millennials and Gen Z at the forefront of protests against racial injustices, the disconnect between students and educators is increasing. Students expect educators to trouble the comfort zone of the classroom and clinical settings to address the complex dynamics of anti-Black racism and oppressive practices.

Background: Medication misuse is a threat to public health and patient safety, and strategies to prevent medication misuse should be incorporated in nursing education.

Method: An interdisciplinary nursing and pharmacy team collaborated on a pilot project with graduate FNP students to adapt and evaluate a training program for pharmacy students on the prevention of medication misuse for nursing based on the publicly available online program Generation Rx.

Results: Of 39 students who participated in the training, 74% ( = 29) completed pre- and posttest surveys.

Background: To strengthen holistic health care delivery, influential interprofessional (IP) leadership skills are crucial for nurse practitioners (NPs) working within typical disease-focused practice settings. To build competencies, an IP leadership learning protocol (ILLP) was developed using an evidence-informed conflict resolution self-study and patient-care video conference (PCVC) for family NP students, which was later adapted for psychiatric mental health (PMH) NP students and measured effectiveness.

Method: Flipped-classroom initial self-study of IP leadership strategies and relevant clinical considerations culminated in applying this learning within the PCVC by role-playing deliberately contrived adversarial IP roles with a faculty facilitator intermittently designating students to act as the IP leader.

Background: College-aged adults, particularly nursing students, experience high stress levels, which can detrimentally affect their academic success. Although current mental health interventions on college campuses are effective, they are hindered by cost and time constraints. However, the emotional freedom technique is a cost-effective, evidence-based technique that can be tailored to individual needs, making it a practical and promising solution for stress management.
