Nurses who graduate from the UTC SON develop critical thinking skills, and learn leadership, case management, and health promotion. While the majority of the RN-BSN students have practiced in many different areas of inpatient and outpatient settings and done well, the research now demonstrates that patients who are cared for by BSN prepared nurses have lower mortality rates, fewer medication errors, and positive outcomes,&#8221; said Dr. Christine Benz Smith, UC Foundation Associate Professor and Director of the UTC School of Nursing.<\/p>\n<p>The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga was chosen for providing one of the best online classroom experiences.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCommunication is key to keeping the RN students engaged and in turn becomes a major part of their success,\u201d said Susan Davidson, EdD, APRN, NP-C, Professor and Gateway Coordinator at UTC.\u00a0 \u201cAll nursing faculty that teach the RNs respond to emails or phone messages within 24 hours. A weekly video conference is held in each online course that is taught to give the RNs and faculty the opportunity to communicate &#8220;face to face&#8221; to discuss course topics, receive clarification of assignments and to discuss any areas of concern. These video discussions are held at different days and times including weekends, to give these working RNs every opportunity to participate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>RNs in the program are required to access the online course site every other day to keep up to date and informed of any announcements or changes that may have occurred.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis program offers excellent technology support, Rodger Ling, who is available every day including weekends to respond to technology issues that may arise,\u201d Davidson added.\u00a0 \u201cWe also offer a laptop loaner program whereby if the student is having computer issues, they may sign out and borrow a laptop from us to use so that they do not get behind in their assignments. By requiring this type of participation and activity, our research has shown that the more \u2018connected\u2019 a student feels in an online environment, the greater their chance is for success.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>RNtoBSN.org\u2019s rigorous list is based on data from a wide range of sources, including IPEDs, institution websites, and state nursing boards.
