Over the last 40 years, researchers have studied the association between nursing education levels and the quality of care provided. The evidence base for baccalaureate nursing education is growing; however, it is still equivocal. Beginning in 2002, studies linked the percentage of RNs in a hospital with baccalaureate degrees to decreased patient mortality (in-hospital
and 30-day mortality, failure to rescue). However, other studies have not found significant relationships between mortality and nursing education. The few studies that examined the impact of baccalaureate education on other patient outcomes, particularly those that are considered sensitive to nursing care, did not find beneficial effects
