Texas A&M School of Nursing receives $2.28M grant to research mortality rates in Texas

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Texas A&M School of Nursing received a $2.28 million grant to address maternal health and disparities throughout our neighborhoods.

Texas A&M has collaborated with Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Driscoll Children’s Hospital, and the Global Institute for Hispanic Health to bring change to underserved mothers.

This grant was part of a federal grant looking for minority serving institutions to create a maternal health research center.

The project is titled ‘CHAMPions.’

“CHAMPions is an acronym for Community Hands Advancing Maternal Health Promotion,” Dr. Robin Page said. Associate Professor/Director, Program of Excellence for Mothers, Children, and Families, Texas A&M.

Dr. Robin Page is an Associate Professor and Director with the Texas A&M School of Nursing and Program of Excellence for Mothers, Children, and Families. She is partnering with other institutions and healthcare facilities to make CHAMPions happen.

“It’s really a community level intervention to help at-risk mothers, families and children,” Dr. Page said.

While Texas is ranked the highest state for maternal mortality rates, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) states, in 2021, Texas reported more than 43.9 deaths per 1,000 births compared to the national average of 33 deaths per 100,000.

“We know that suicide is one of the top causes of maternal mortality,” Dr. Page said. “Homicide is another one, so we can screen for things like intimate partner violence.”

Texas A&M School of Nursing is currently in year one of the grant, planning the logistics of the program and how to best integrate maternal health in maternity care deserts.

“We’ll have quality improvement checks so that we can make adjustments as we get feedback from participants in the program and also from our community partners who are there in the area because we value feedback from the community,” Dr. Page said.

The program will initially serve five counties in the Coastal Bend area and if the program is successful, the goal is to expand to more Texas counties.

“We can meet women where they are at in their homes, hopefully in a safe place and provide screenings for some of these at-risk conditions and then help navigate them to their local resources in the community,” Dr. Page said.

Throughout the five-year span of the grant, CHAMPions will be co-managed from Bryan-College Station and Corpus Christi.

The effectiveness of the program curriculum will then be evaluated to implement in clinics in our neighborhoods.

General Statement

Registered nurses have been called the backbone of our health care system. Working on the front lines of health care, they treat patients, monitor and record their condition, help establish a plan of care, educate patients or the public about a health condition and provide advice and emotional support to patients’ family members. Registered nurses are increasingly being recognized as leaders in transforming the health care system to meet the burgeoning demand for prevention, wellness, and primary care services with a focus on improving quality and managing costs. In addition to their clinical expertise, nurses are being sought out to serve in a variety of leadership posts on bodies developing policy recommendations related to a wide-range of health care policy issues.

Individuals who earn a nursing degree must first complete a national licensing examination in order to obtain a registered nurse license for practice. Further training or education can qualify nurses to work in specialty areas, such as emergency care, pediatrics, labor and delivery, mental health, oncology, surgery, school, or public health. Graduate education can increase advancement opportunities for nurses including administrative positions in health care, academic faculty positions, and health care delivery as advanced practice registered nurses. 

The School of Nursing is committed to addressing the critical nursing shortage across Texas through exceptional graduate and undergraduate educational programs and advanced technologies in nursing. Students are educated through cutting-edge technologies and simulated experiences, which include standardized patients and virtual learning activities. As leaders, our graduates are taught to question traditional methods and continually seek the best practices based on relevant clinical research. Through community service and leadership opportunities, the School of Nursing fosters a sense of social responsibility and global citizenship.

Texas A&M School of Nursing received approval from the Texas Board of Nursing on July 17, 2008 and admitted its first class on July 21, 2008. The school has grown to approximately 500 nursing students enrolled at two campuses: Bryan and Round Rock as well as having many students in distance education programs. The college also has a resident recruiting presence in Lufkin and McAllen serving residents in East and South Texas, for prospective undergraduate and graduate nursing students.

Texas A&M School of Nursing graduates are among the best-prepared masters and baccalaureate nurses in the nation, and they are highly sought after by prospective employers. First-time passing rates on certification board exams for graduates of the Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) Master of Science in Nursing program are significantly above the national average. Additionally, the first-time National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses® (NCLEX-RN) pass rates for BSN graduates have ranked 10 percentage points higher than both the Texas and national average for the past ten years. The percent of graduates employed within the first month following graduation is consistently high compared to national averages.

In recognition of this standard of excellence, the school received the National League of Nursing’s prestigious designation as a Center of Excellence in Nursing Education initially in 2016. The distinction recognizes schools of nursing that have achieved a high level of outstanding innovations, commitment, and sustainability.

Master of Science in Nursing

The School of Nursing offers the Master of Science degree in Nursing (MSN) with three specialty tracks. The MSN tracks are offered primarily online, with some required visits to the Bryan-College Station campus, based on the program.

Completion of the MSN Nursing Education program enables graduates to instruct future generations of the nursing profession with advanced teaching emphasis, preparing them for the national certification exam in nursing education.

Graduates of the MSN Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) program are advanced practice registered nurses who provide primary health care to a wide range of patients from infants and children to older adults. MSN-FNP graduates are eligible to take the ANCC and AANP certification exams. With a focus on health promotion, risk reduction, disease prevention and illness management, FNPs help meet the escalating need for high-quality and accessible health care.

The MSN in Forensic Nursing prepares graduates to care for victims and perpetrators of traumatic events or criminal acts. While caring for patients, the forensic nurse is responsible for observing, recognizing, collecting and documenting forensic evidence.

• Doctor of Nursing Practice

The Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree prepares nurses for advanced roles as implementation scientists skilled in the translation of evidence into clinical practice, measurement of patient outcomes, and transformation of health care systems to ensure quality and safety.

The DNP program provides education in order for the graduate to analyze, evaluate, and advance quality, safety, effectiveness, and efficiency of patient care and systems of care. This comprehensive knowledge base for advanced nursing practice allows the graduate to influence health care outcomes for individuals and populations. This may include providing direct care or management of care. Other opportunities for graduates of the DNP program include working in administration, executive leadership, health policy, informatics, and population health.

Accreditation by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE)

The Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education is an autonomous accrediting agency, contributing to the improvement of the public’s health. A specialized/professional accrediting agency, CCNE ensures the quality and integrity of baccalaureate and graduate nursing programs and of post-baccalaureate nurse residency programs. The baccalaureate and master’s degree programs in nursing at Texas A&M University School of Nursing are accredited by the  Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education , 655 K Street, NW, Suite 750, Washington, DC 20001, 202-887-6791.

Good Academic Standing

To maintain good academic standing, an MSN or DNP student must make a minimum grade of B in all courses, maintain a minimum cumulative 3.0 GPA (on a 4.0 scale), and not be on probationary status. If a student fails to meet the requirements above, he or she will be placed on academic probation. See Student Rule 12.1 Scholastic Deficiency for additional information.

Academic Dismissal

Students will not be permitted to continue in the nursing program or apply for readmission if they: 1) receive a grade of C, D or F in more than one course, 2) receive any combination of grades of C, D or F on two attempts of the same course, or 3) receive written notice of dismissal from the program by the Associate Dean for Graduate Nursing Education.

Written notification of academic dismissal will include procedures for appeal as outlined in Student Rule 12 . and Student Rule 59 Graduate Academic Appeals Panel .

The basis for an appeal based upon dismissal for failure to adhere to School of Nursing’s Professional Standards Policy will follow the procedures as noted in the section on Violation of the Professional Code of Ethics.

Dismissed students are expected to make arrangements with the Office of Student Affairs to begin the formal withdrawal process in a timely manner. Dismissed students will be required to turn in any equipment or materials belonging to the school as well as any ID badges.

Professional Code of Ethics

The nursing profession expresses its moral obligations and professional values through the Code of Ethics for Nurses (ANA, 2017). Each student should read the American Nurses Association Code of Ethics and be accountable for its contents. Ethics is the foundation upon which nursing is built. Nursing has a distinguished history of concern for the welfare of the sick, injured, and vulnerable. This concern is embodied in the provision of nursing care to individuals and the community.

The Code of Ethics for a profession makes explicit the primary goals, values, and obligations of the profession. Students are expected to function within the framework of the American Nurses Association Code for Nurses.

Nursing students are expected not only to adhere to the morals and norms of the profession, but also to embrace them as part of what it means to be a nurse. The nurse recognizes that his/her first obligation is to the patient’s welfare.

Any situation that threatens patient safety, exhibits a lack of moral character, demonstrates a lack of professionalism or good judgment, and/or is a violation of school/hospital policy may result in immediate termination from the program.

Verbal or written derogatory statements about patients, clinical placements, the Health Science Center, School of Nursing students, faculty or staff will be subject to disciplinary action. This includes postings on internet social networking sites (i.e., Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc.)

Students are expected to demonstrate and embrace the following principles:

• Be responsible for their own learning and clinical practice and honor other students’ right to learn and be successful in academic and clinical environments.
• Demonstrate respect in verbal and non-verbal behaviors to all others in clinical and academic settings. The use of abusive language or disruptive behavior directed toward faculty, staff, or other students will not be tolerated.
• Provide safe, competent care, seeking assistance when personal knowledge and/or skill are not adequate. Avoid use of any substances that would impair clinical ability or judgment.
• Provide the same standard of care to all patients and families regardless of race, ethnicity, age, sexual preference, disability, religion, economic status, employment status, or the nature of their health problem. Accept that others have the right to their own cultural beliefs and values and respect their choices.
• Document in a thorough, accurate, truthful, and timely manner data that reflects findings from one’s own personal assessment, care, interventions, teaching, or the patient’s and/or family’s response to those activities.
• Act in a manner that contributes to the development and maintenance of an ethical educational and practice environment. Recognize that the primary commitment in clinical practice is to the patient and that respectful interactions are expected.
• Complete legally required HIPAA training and TAMU, SON, or clinical site requirements regarding confidentiality prior to the beginning of the academic year. Use patient data in all schoolwork, papers, presentations, research findings and in the clinical setting in a manner that is accurate, truthful, and confidential.
• Refrain from unauthorized use or possession of school or clinical setting’s equipment, patient’s belongings, or items dispersed or intended for patient use.

Students may purchase the Code of Ethics for Nurses by contacting the American Nurses Association Publishing Company.

Compliance Requirements for Clinical Courses

Students must provide documentation confirming the completion of compliance requirements prior to participating in clinical nursing courses. Information on requirements is provided upon admission and during New Student Orientation.

A pathway to nursing inside this Birmingham high school

Maria Manuel, a ninth-grade student at Huffman High School, wants to be an ultrasound technician.

“The most interesting thing I learned in this program is about the diet, what people are not supposed to eat, what they can eat, and what’s not healthy for them,” Manuel said.

Jasmyne Miles, also a ninth grader at Huffman, really enjoys the “hands-on” aspect of learning about nursing and literally lit up as she explained why she wants to be a pediatric nurse.

“I realized that I found more pleasure in taking care of younger kids, and I was like, ‘Oh my God, I have to take up health care,’” Miles said. “I’m like, ‘This is something that’s really for me,’ and it was such a passion.”

Manuel and Miles are just a few of the students in Huffman High School’s Academy of Health Science magnet program who are learning the nursing industry with exposure to hands-on, professional experience.

And that, said Birmingham City Schools (BCS) Superintendent Mark Sullivan, Ed.D., will prove invaluable to the “diverse group of students” enrolled in the program.

“One of things we know in the health care field is that people feel more comfortable around those they can relate to, [and] oftentimes African Americans and Latinos don’t really have representation in their nurses and doctors,” Sullivan told The Birmingham Times.

“This [program] is building out a pipeline for young African American and Latino boys and girls who can be in the health care field and have jobs that can really transform their lives.”

Forging A Path

The Pathway to Professional Nursing program, which launched in the fall of 2023 at Huffman High School, is designed to prepare students for post-secondary education.

The program, in its first year at Huffman High School and being offered to ninth graders, will be “expanding next year to include Woodlawn, Wenonah, and Ramsey high schools,” said Sullivan, adding that this is key for students because “they will have credentials and also a leg up when they graduate.”

Previously, the nursing program worked with students in grades 10 through 12.

The program goes beyond nursing, said Crystal Freeman, Doctor of Nursing Practice (D.N.P.), who is the Health Science Instructor at Huffman High School.

“Health Sciences is the broad name in terms of what students can pursue in career pathways, so we’re not just focusing only on nursing,” said Freeman.

“There are students who truly have interest in other careers related to health care, but many of the students—particularly the female students—only want to learn more about nursing. So many of the skills overlap, regardless of what career pathway they choose,” said Freeman, who earned her D.N.P. degree from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) in 2009.

The Power of Partnership

UAB is a key partner in providing this educational foundation, and Huffman High School was an ideal choice for the program because it had an existing designation as an Academy of Health Science, complete with readily accessible resources, such as a health care skills lab with a nursing station and manikins. The program is currently managed and co-directed by UAB School of Nursing Instructor Allyson Sanders, a Registered Nurse (R.N.) who works directly with the students at Huffman.

Students are not only investing in their future education but also creating more opportunities to secure a job in a vital profession, she said.

“The plan is to build a pathway from the high school straight to the university, and the goal is to increase diversity within the nursing workforce,” said Sanders. “The plan is also to engage students at an early age in nursing … [and] Health Sciences in general. We do a lot of the foundational nursing skills at this age, and throughout their high school years.”

While the basics of the nursing profession are important, she said much more is being taught to the 19 freshman students enrolled in this course of study.

“We talk about how to communicate. We talk about finding resolutions and problem solving. … Just learning life skills. I think that’s important,” said Sanders, who earned a Master of Nursing Education degree from UAB in 2018. She comes to Huffman for one hour three days a week to work with students in the program.

Pathway to Professional Nursing students have an opportunity to take advanced and dual-enrollment classes, visit the UAB campus on a scheduled basis, and participate in summer enrichment activities.

They also are trained and certified in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), equipping them with the skills to administer life-saving assistance to someone whose breathing or heartbeat has stopped. And they are prepared to take the Patient Care Technician certification exam upon graduation.

Sanders has seen some students who previously struggled with attendance not miss a single class while working with the nursing program. What’s even more remarkable, she said, is the way the program helps students overcome learning obstacles.

“Their education piece is difficult,” Sanders said. “There’s a lot of math. There’s a lot of science. When you have students that are coming from difficult backgrounds … [and they have] an opportunity to be exposed to some things earlier, I think that gives [them] a better chance of being successful.”

Taliyah Merritt, another ninth grader in the Pathway to Professional Nursing program, said her mother, who’s a nurse, served as her inspiration.

“I knew I wanted to be a nurse when, whenever I was at home and my mom came home from work, she talked about her days at work and all the different things that she did,” said the student.

But her motivation goes even deeper: “Every day, you get to go home and reflect and think about how many people you’ve helped,” said Merritt.

A Veteran’s Perspective

Deborah Thedford-Zimmerman is the current historian of Birmingham Black Nurses Association, Inc., and one of the organization’s past presidents. She’s also the coordinator of Birmingham Black Nurses leadership and knows the importance of introducing students to the profession.

“As mature nurses, we need to help mold and shape the younger nurses,” said Thedford-Zimmerman. “We need to talk to them just to let them know that we are there to support them, so that we may be able to help alleviate the disparity in the workforce because there are not enough nurses to help our communities.”

She added that programs like the nursing curriculum at Huffman High School “are needed for our students.”

Progressing Forward

Working with BCS has been a fulfilling partnership, Sanders said. “It’s our way of giving back to this community, … which is a big part of not just the hospital but the university itself. … The [UAB] School of Nursing is lucky to be part of that,” she said.

BCS Superintendent Sullivan said, while he’s proud that the program at Huffman High School is building a “pipeline” of nurses to combat an industry shortage, he’s also excited about why students are participating.

During a recent program at Huffman, the superintendent said, “I was listening to one of the students talk about why she wants to be a nurse, and it’s just heartwarming to see the commitment these students have at such a young age to really give back to their community.”

2024 NFL Draft picks by college team, conference: Michigan leads the way, Texas sets program record

Counting the 2024 nfl draft picks by school and conference.

The 2024 NFL Draft concluded on Saturday with a busy four rounds of action that featured far more defensive players than we saw in the early rounds, but also a strong reflection of the trends we saw in college football the previous season. The SEC finished with the most draft picks of any conference, as has come to be expected after notable dominance in that category over the last 10-15 years. However, the Pac-12 backed up a strong year on the field with a strong year in the draft by producing the second-most draft picks. 

The irony, of course, being that the Pac-12 has a terrific NFL Draft showing just as the league is splintering, with four teams heading to the Big Ten (USC, UCLA, Oregon, Washington), four teams heading to to the Big 12 (Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Utah) and two teams joining the ACC (Cal, Stanford) later this summer. But the draft picks we saw this weekend were players from Pac-12 competition, so the league gets to celebrate one last time with one of the top non-SEC counts in college football. 

In terms of the school count, there was some intrigue as to whether Michigan would challenge Georgia's record for the most NFL Draft picks in a single year. Though the Wolverines will end up with even more players getting camp invites, the final total on draft picks is just 13, which is two players short of the Bulldogs' record from 2022. Michigan did finish as the school with the most draft picks overall, leading a group that also included Texas (11), Alabama (10), Florida State (10) and Washington (10). 

Texas' 11 NFL Draft picks were the most in program history for the seven-round era, and it follows a season that saw the Longhorns win their first Big 12 title since 2009 and make their first-ever College Football Playoff appearance. Steve Sarkisian's program saw two players picked in the first round (Byron Murphy, Xavier Worthy), three players picked in the second (Jonathon Brooks, AD Mitchell, T'Vondre Sweat), and then six players picked on Day 3, with tight end JT Sanders (Round 4 to the Panthers), offensive lineman Christian Jones (Round 5 to the Cardinals), running back Keilan Robinson (Round 5 to the Jaguars), linebacker Jaylan Ford (Round 5 to the Saints), defensive back Ryan Watts (Round 6 to the Steelers) and wide receiver Jordan Whittington (Round 6 to the Rams) rounding out the group.
