Which project, built on IOM recommendations, is developing a framework for nursing schools curriculum?

• A. The Quality and Safe Education for Nurses (QSEN)
• B. The Institution of Medicine (IOM)
• C. Health Care Reform Act
• D. Medical models

Answer: (A)

Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) is the initiative built on Institute of Medicine recommendations to create a framework for nursing school curricula. It translates the IOM’s call for safer, higher-quality care into concrete learning objectives across six competencies—patient-centered care, teamwork and collaboration, evidence-based practice, quality improvement, safety, and informatics—so nursing students graduate ready to deliver care that improves outcomes and reduces harm. The IOM is the source of the recommendations, not the curriculum project itself; the Health Care Reform Act and medical models do not provide a curriculum framework for nursing education based on IOM guidance.
