Nursing Workforce Diversity: Current and Future Directions
![Page 16: Nursing workforce diversity updates and anticipated trends](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062904/58871d731a28abfb0b8b4fcd/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Social Determinants FrameworkSocial determinants are the conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age, and the wider set of forces and systems shaping the conditions of daily life
World Health Organization
Five social ‘class’ determinants of student success and achievement:1. Challenged home intellectual environments2. Single parenthood3. Irregular parental work schedules4. Inadequate health car access5. Exposure to environmental lead
Economic Policy Institute (2015)

Social Determinants as a Nursing Workforce Diversity Strategy Move beyond individual-level strategies rooted in
deficit-based models and assumptions Multi-level and systems approaches
systems (college, university, and community-level) Partnerships
public and private sectors (beyond nursing)industry and other disciplines
Collective activity vs. Individual nursing school effort

From Social Determinants to Holistic Review and Admissions
![Page 19: Nursing workforce diversity updates and anticipated trends](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062904/58871d731a28abfb0b8b4fcd/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Holistic Review and Admissions Admitting and graduating the best “nurses” vs the best
“students” Matching a student background/experiences to the
College/University mission, vision, and values Using diversity of admission criteria not exclusive of
quantitative metrics: GPA, GRE
Requires institutional leadership involvement starting at the top

HRSA’s Holistic Review and Admissions Investments2013: Urban Universities for HEALTH $265,000 HRSA Grant Survey of Admissions in the Health Professions examined how universities are admitting students into health professions programs, with a particular focus on “holistic review” as a strategy to increase diversity and cultural competence in the health professions, with the larger aim of improving access to care and achieving health equity
2015: Urban Universities for HEALTH $150,000 HRSA Grant Disseminating Evidence on Admissions project aim is to improve the understanding and use of evidence-based university admissions practices that lead to a more diverse and culturally competent nursing workforce
