Summer sequential graduate programs in nursing.

In 1970 Texas Woman's University, College of Nursing instituted summer sequential programs in nursing whereby a student could study for a master's degree by attending the University for three summers. A different clinical focus was added each year from 1970 to 1973. Three sequences have been completed, i.e., clinical focuses of psychiatric-mental health nursing, medical-surgical nursing, and maternal-child nursing. Community health nursing is still in progress. Table II is a tabulation of the number and percentage of students who have entered, have withdrawn, are incomplete, or have graduated. Faculty and students think that the program is successful. Enrollment for the first summer of a three-summer sequence beginning the summer of 1974 was twenty-five students in medical-surgical nursing and fifteen students in psychiatric-mental health nursing.

Perinatal care and cost effectiveness: changes in health expenditures and birth outcome following the establishment of a nurse-midwife program.

Estimates of infant health status and expenditures for perinatal care are presented for periods of time before and after implementation of a nurse-midwife program in rural Georgia. As the program developed, the infant mortality rate of the four counties served by the program showed a decrease. Similarly, the target population (pregnant women of low to moderate income who had no private physician) experienced decreases in the rate of neonatal mortality, low birthweight, and short gestational age. Estimated expenditures for perinatal care in the four counties decreased as well. These results are examined from the perspective of the National Health Planning and Resources Development Act of 1974 and the utility of using an epidemiologic approach for estimating the output of health services in terms of health status is emphasized.

The effectiveness of non-physicians as providers of family planning services.

Population growth and advances in contraceptive technology are discussed in relation to changes in birth control attitudes and practices and the expansion of public family planning programs. The literature describing training, utilization, and effectiveness of non-physicians in providing family planning services is reviewed. Studies comparing physician and non-physician provision of oral contraceptives and IUD insertions are discussed. On the basis of extensive supporting data, the author concludes that many functions which formerly were in the physician's province are as safely and perhaps more appropriately performed by persons with less medical sophistication. Recommendations are made regarding the present and future role of nurses as primary care providers in family planning.
