6.  Increase of 16-34 million people insured (34 million by 2016) (Congressional Budget Office, 2012)  By 2019 increase of 15-25 million primary care visits per year (Hofer, Abraham, & Moscovice, 2011)  Shortage of approximately 12,000 – 41,000 primary care physicians by 2025 (AAMC)

7.  According to HRSA 2012….NO.  HRSA estimates that supply of NP will increase 30% by 2020 and PA supply will increase by 58% by 2020.  The increase in NP and PA supply will reduce PCP shortage from 20,000 PCPs to 6,000 PCPs.

8.  In Colorado….. ◦ State graduates 125 new NPs per year ◦ A total of 140 NPs retire each year ….(CCNE). ◦ Supply not keeping up with demand from retirement NOT counting population growth nor impact of ACA.

9. ◦ Only 18% of NPs practice in rural areas (American Academy of Nurse Practitioners) ◦ Yet, 20-25% of residents live in rural areas ◦ An additional 4,000 primary care providers needed in rural areas (National Conference of State Legislators).

10.  BLS estimates RN demand up 26% (1 million RN increase) by 2020.  1/3 of increase in RN demand will come from ACA (333,333 RNs).  RNs needed in home health care will increase 55% between 2010-2020.  RNs needed for Primary Care Practices / Medical Homes = more training / education.

11.  Increase in NP demand expected, especially for rural areas.  Demand for RNs will increase, particularly in outpatient settings and home health care.  RNs increasingly need skills as care coordinators, case managers, patient educators, and chronic care specialists.  Increased pressure on educational pipeline.

13.  Total of 78,089 qualified applicants turned away in 2013.  Total of 1,358 existing faculty positions unfilled in 2013; an additional 98 new positions needed.  Faculty vacancy rates of over 8% nationwide.  Wave of faculty retirements expected.

14.  Inadequate doctoral-prepared pool and pipeline.  Non-competitive salaries.  Aging faculty workforce.  Attrition of existing faculty for other than retirement (Fang & Bednash, 2014).

17.  Nurse Burnout ◦ Aiken, Clarke, Sloane (2002); Aiken et al. (2008); Lang et al. (2012); Flynn, Thomas-Hawkins, Clarke, 2009 Van Bogaert et al. (2010).  Job Satisfaction / Intent-to-Leave / Attrition ◦ Choi, Flynn, Aiken (2011); Flynn (2007); Flynn, Thomas-Hawkins, Clarke (2009); Van Bogaert, et al. (2010).  Poor Patient Outcomes ◦ Kutney-Lee, et al. (2009); Flynn, et al., (2012); Flynn, Liang, Dickson, & Aiken, 2010; Jarrin, Flynn, Lake, Aiken (2014).

18. What are the modifiable aspects of work-life that are associated with burnout and intent-to-leave among nurse faculty?

19.  Stratified random sample of full-time faculty.  Sample proportionately representative of all US programs by prelicensure offered (BS, AD); urban/rural; research intensity.  Total of 3,975 faculty invited to participate in survey; 78.5% response rate!  Final Sample = 3,120 faculty from 269 schools of nursing.

32.  Constellation of Work-Life factors equal to retirement age in predicting intent-to-leave academic nursing! ◦ Burnout  Workload / Hours per week worked  Lack of flexibility to balance work / family life ◦ Dissatisfaction with Workload ◦ Dissatisfaction with Salary / Reward for Innovation ◦ Dissatisfaction with Teaching Support

33.  Monitor faculty workload / perceptions  Implement strategies to increase flexibility of schedules  Implement strategies to increase teaching support 
