Quality Safety Education for Nurses QSEN

Faculty need to understand how to integrate QSEN throughout their nursing courses and curriculum.

Systematic in the way we provide care in a meaningful way.

Faculty will serve as catalysts that will help students integrate Watson’s Nursing Theory and Ten Carative Factors into their clinical practice. Faculty need to be visionaries that will force this new theoretical concept.
