TRANSITION FROM NURSING STUDENT TO RN TO CRRN ® Judy Chuli RN MS CRRN ® NEA-BC, Chief Nursing Officer Amelia Monteguedo BSN CRRN ® , Nurse Manager Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital, Worcester, Mass. Introduction In response to the nursing shortage, supporting nursing education is essential to helping the profession grow. Fairlawn established the Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital Scholarship in June 2004 to provide three $5,000 scholarship awards each per year to Worcester State University nursing students who are willing to commit at least one year of service to Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital after graduation. The Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital Clinical Excellence Award was established to provide one $250 award annually to be given to a grad- uating senior who has demonstrated excellence in a nursing clinical setting and has an interest in orthopedics or rehabilitation medicine. Implementation The Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital Scholar- ships are available to seniors in good academic standing in WSU Nursing School. Scholarship recipients must sign a letter of agreement that they are willing to work a year at Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital following graduation. To obtain the scholarship, the student must also submit an essay describing his/her passion for rehabilitation nursing. Preference is given to applicants who intend or have completed a preceptorship at Fairlawn Re- habilitation Hospital, or are current or former employees of Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital. Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital also hires stu- dents as rehabilitation nurse techs/personal care assistants to give opportunity to practice basic nursing skills and gain familiarity of the rehab environment. Results Since June of 2005, there have been 12 recipi- ents of the Fairlawn Hospital Scholarship and eight recipients of the Fairlawn Rehabilitation Nursing Clinical Excellence Award. 33% of the nurses have completed their CRRN ® when eligible. 17% of recipients have received training and are currently in leadership positions within the nursing department. Conclusion Rehabilitation is Fairlawn’s sole focus. Nurses dedicate all their skills and knowledge to a single goal—improving each patient’s func- tional abilities through intensive, individualized therapeutic services. Helping patients to attain that goal is enhanced by Fairlawn’s relationship with Worcester State University, and our continuing support of future rehab nurses.
