In the United States, colon cancer rates have dropped since the 1980s as more people are being screened for colorectal cancer. However, despite an increase in screening, rates are expected to increase through 2035. Patients who have a good relationship with their providers are more likely to complete colorectal cancer screening. However, providers rely on support staff to educate patients on the screenings. The local organization has struggled to improve cancer screening rates among its patients. Thus, the purpose of this Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) project was to determine whether an education intervention focused on colorectal cancer and screening for colorectal cancer increased knowledge and awareness among nurses and nursing assistants. Twenty-five individuals attended the education intervention. The average age of the participants was 39.76 years (SD = 12.75), and 96% of the participants (n = 24) identified as female. The mean pretest score for knowledge was 7.24 (SD = 1.48) with a range of 5 to 10 and the mean posttest score was 9.12 (SD = 0.78) with a range of 8 to 10. A Wilcoxon signed- rank test was used to estimate the data. There was a statistically significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores (z = -3.83, p < 0.001) indicating an increase in knowledge among the participants. Participants were also asked to rate their awareness of four specific areas using a Likert scale. A Wilcoxon signed-rank test showed a statistical difference between pretest and posttest scores among all four content areas, indicating an increase in awareness among the participants. The increased knowledge and awareness among the participants may translate into practice and ultimately lead to positive patient, provider, and organizational outcomes.
