Nursing Retention Toolkit
A Primer for Nurse Educators
Ce webinaire est offert en anglais seulement.
Date: Wednesday, September 18, 2024
Time: 1:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. ET (Ontario/Quebec)
Health Canada's Nursing retention toolkit: Improving the working lives of nurses in Canada is aimed at improving nursing retention through community-driven initiatives and evidence-based practices. Nursing retention requires actions in all sectors, including nursing education. By addressing attrition issues in education, preparing resilient and safe nurses, and supporting a successful transition to practice, nursing education can be a key contributor to nursing retention. This panel presentation from Dr. Leigh Chapman (Canada's Chief Nursing Officer), Eyasu Jakob (former CNSA President), and Dr. Cynthia Baker (Executive Director, CASN) breaks down key opportunities and challenges for educators in utilizing the toolkit.

Designing Engagement Strategies for Genomics-Informed Oncology Nursing
Nurses are key to ensuring that all people benefit from the transformative potential of genomics for disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Typically, nurses rely on documents such as position statements, competency statements and practice guidelines to clarify roles, accountabilities, and responsibilities. However, in Canada, there is a near total lack of policy infrastructure related to nursing and genomics. This has made it challenging for nurses in education, clinical practice, research, and administration to promote genomic literacy and the safe and equitable integration of genomics. Therefore, to support and accelerate nursing and genomics, the Canadian Nursing and Genomics initiative was launched in 2020. The following two resources can guide activities for nurses in all five domains of practice.
The attached policy brief contains recommendations from a three-phase research project funded by the Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR) and conducted in collaboration with the Canadian Association of Schools of Nursing and the Canadian Association of Nurses in Oncology/Association canadienne des infirmières en oncologie. The recommendations inform strategies in support of genomics-informed oncology nursing education and practice.
A second project funded by CIHR was used to assemble influential nurse leaders from educational institutions, regulatory bodies, and professional associations in deliberative dialogues to mobilize knowledge and co-create strategic directions to enhance genomics integration. An outcome of this project is a toolkit and four strategic directions to guide the integration of genomics into education and clinical care. The toolkit includes resources that apply to all nurses and specific content for educators.

Ontario Nurse educators: We need your help!
We are looking for registered nurses who have taught in a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) program for at least two (2) years to participate in a brief (15-minute) survey about nurse educators' perceptions of trauma-informed care in undergraduate nursing education. We invite you to participate in this survey regardless of your teaching experience (clinical, lab, simulation, or theory courses). Teaching experience in trauma-informed care is not a prerequisite. This research study aims to understand the current context of trauma-informed care in undergraduate nursing education in Ontario and examine opportunities and emerging best practices for integrating trauma-informed care.
Survey link: https://uwindsor.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_8Ii7qJGnD7fO0DQ
If you volunteer to participate, you will be asked to complete a short online survey about your understanding and attitudes toward trauma-informed care. You will be asked if you have or have not begun implementing trauma-informed care in your undergraduate nursing curriculum and then to rank your familiarity with, understanding, knowledge and attitudes related to trauma-informed care and its incorporation into undergraduate nursing education.
At the end of the brief survey, you will be asked if you would like to provide your contact information to participate in a follow-up interview.
This research study has been reviewed and cleared by the Research Ethics Board at the University of Windsor. If you have any questions or concerns about the research, please feel to contact Rachel Elliott at relliott@uwindsor.ca or Faculty Supervisor Dr. Kathryn Pfaff at kpfaff@uwindsor.ca.
