Abstract

In 2013, the New York Organization of Nurse Executives and Leaders (NYONEL) sponsored a contest to systematically gather testimonials from direct care providers that would further support the concept that education to the bachelor of science (BS) degree makes a difference in the clinical practice of individuals already licensed as registered nurses (RNs). This initiative was catalyzed by nursing leaders in New York State (NYS) who were members of the Coalition for the Advancement of Nursing Education, leading the efforts that support legislation that would require a new registered nurse to obtain a bachelor's degree in nursing within 10 years of licensure.
