Abstract

How we educate nurses in modern America is at a crucial juncture as healthcare evolves, demographics shift and technological advancements reshape the landscape. In this paper, we advocate for a fundamental shift in how nurse candidates are enrolled and trained, emphasising collaboration among educators, employers and policymakers. Addressing systemic challenges in nurse education, we examine the impact of ageing demographics, increasing diversity and the rise of nontraditional learners. Proposing alternative pathways for enrolment and leveraging technology for personalised learning experiences, we argue for inclusivity, diversity and adaptability in nurse education. Through effective collaboration between stakeholders, we envision a future where nurse education meets the demands of a changing healthcare industry. Our goal is to inspire transformative action, foster innovation and promote equitable access to quality education for all who want to become a nurse. This paper aims to spark discussions and guide stakeholders towards developing a resilient, adaptable and community-connected nursing workforce.
