Faculty Roles and Processes for NCLEX-RN Outcomes: A Theoretical Perspective

Over many years, nursing educators have tried a variety of interventions to improve graduate of the National Council Licensure Examination - Registered Nurse ® pass rates. Peplau's Theory of Interpersonal Relations can be used to provide both logical structure and systematic processes for faculty roles and interventions applied to preparing graduates for the nursing licensing examination. The theory offers rationale for allocating resources to support faculty roles in strategically intervening with students beginning with admission to the nursing program and ending with the graduates successfully passing the National Council Licensure Examination - Registered Nurse.
