Hiring of Associate Degree Nurses. The parties recognize that while the hiring of a BSN prepared nurse is a current requirement and would always be the preferred option, the district has been unable to fill all current nursing positions and has had to utilize agency nurses, some of whom are ADN nurses. The parties further recognize that Agency nurses are expensive to employ. Given that ADN's hold the same nursing license from the New Mexico Board of Nursing and that they take the NCLEX exam and must pass this exam in order to be called a Registered Nurse, they are held to the same Standards of Care and hold the same liability as a BSN prepared nurse. The parties further recognize that the District currently has ADN nurses working for APS, who, in addition to their ADN, hold a degree in a related field. The significant difference between the ADN and BSN is that the BSN has completed a 4-year degree and the ADN has 2-3 years of college hours. Given these facts, the parties agree to the following stipulations that would make hiring ADN nurses permissible:  ADN nurses with at least 3 years of nursing experience may be hired provided that they are actively pursuing their Bachelor’s degree.  ADN nurses shall be given 2 years to complete their degree. If, due to unforeseen circumstances, more than 2 years is needed to complete the degree requirements, individuals would need to apply for an extension and this would be approved on a case-by-case basis.  ADN nurses with 3 years of nursing experience may enter the Career Pathway System at 75% of Level II pay.  Upon completing their BSN the employee will be moved the following year to 100% of the appropriate step of Level 2 in the Career Pathway System.  The expectation for those ADN nurses entering under these conditions would be that they are performing at, and are evaluated based on, Level II competencies. APPENDIX J.20 MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING “I” LICENSED SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHERS All existing and newly hired “I” licensed special education teachers will be obligated to participate in 12 hours of APS provided professional development. 12 hours of professional development, provided outside of the regular duty day, is a condition of employment during both the first and second years for all “I” licensed special education teachers in APS.
