Using your clinical expertise in nursing education.
Full Abstract
Due to the expected retirement of large numbers of nursing faculty in the next few years, clinical nurse specialists may find themselves being recruited for faculty positions in schools of nursing. There are several points to consider when deciding if a full- or part-time academic position is right for you, including the school's philosophy and the job description. If you do decide to become a faculty member, you will also need to consider such issues as classroom teaching, clinical teaching, working with students, and accreditation of nursing schools. Academic nursing is a rewarding career and is an opportunity for clinical nurse specialists to use their expert clinical knowledge as well as apply their client and staff education skills to a different population in a different environment.
