Mental health is a public health crisis:
? One in five adults have a mental health condition;
teen suicide rates are on the rise (MHA, 2017)
? There is a serious mental health workforce
shortage (SAMSHA, 2014).
Therefore, nurse graduates should demonstrate
beginning competency in mental health care.
Active learning strategies help undergraduate
students gain required competencies (Shin et al.,
2015).

Conclusions
Application of ATI products with active learning
strategies facilitated improvement in the ATI RN
Mental Health 2016 Proctored Exam scores.
Proficiency Level 2 is considered to ¡°exceed
minimum expectations for performance in this
content area¡± (ATI, 2016). The ATI products
provide metrics to evaluate student learning
outcomes and mental health nursing competencies.
Recommendations
Continued course improvements: updated textbook
with robust online resources, alignment of class
content with weekly simulations, revised instructor
designed test questions, structured post conference
template, purchase of ATI Complete Partnership.
More research is needed to examine effects of
individual variables on proficiency score outcomes.
