Nursing education programs need to do more to create a leadership mind-set in nurses. Research has demonstrated it may be more effective educationally to:

A. Provide all of the leadership content in one course.
B. Apply leadership content to the first course of the undergraduate and graduate curricula so other courses can remain clinically focused only.
C. Integrate the leadership content through-out the curricula.
D. Teach two separate courses in the first-year curricula—one being leadership and the other being management.


ANS: C

Feedback

B Incorrect because all courses need to have leadership integrated into it.
C Correct because the leadership content should be integrated throughout the curri-cula.
D Incorrect because the content should not only be integrated throughout the curricula but it should be presented together.
