Conclusion Assessment 1 Bachelor of Science Nursing (BSN) curriculum is a great program that equips learners with the most competent skills and practical experience in nursing. It is a tool that enables most people to develop their career in nursing. Due to current health care innovations, there is a need for more advanced nurses. The BSN curriculum, both traditional and accelerated programs can help solve the problem of deficiency in nursing professionals. The increasing complexity in the role of nurses also requires advanced knowledge. It is therefore important that nurses who have not acquired the degree program to pursue it for the development of their skills. The diversity and comprehension of the courses in the BSN curriculum sufficiently meet the high professionals' standards of the current nursing practice. Conclusion Assessment 2 Nursing practice has dramatically changed over time and has brought in challenges and issues that require a careful approach. Most institutions have recognized the role of a nurse leader. For instance, Nurses making decisions from bed to boardroom is an excellent example of literature that proves the need for a leadership approach to the BSN curriculum. Introduction of a strategic management course into the curriculum will yield diverse outcomes that will solve the current health care issues. Although the primary role of a nurse remains to deliver health care services, it is not possible to exclude the management role in nursing. Nurses need to practice management functions and strategic planning to be able to give solutions to current and future needs. Strategic managers are transformative leaders that enhance curriculum development in nursing.
