Nursing autonomy has led to marginalization of biological sciences in education and practice. Expanding roles, like nurse prescribing, necessitate a reevaluation of biosciences

Area of Science:

Nursing Education
Biosciences in Healthcare
Professional Autonomy

Background:

Nursing's pursuit of professional autonomy has historically led to the marginalization of biological sciences.
This trend impacts both nursing education and clinical practice.

Purpose of the Study:

To argue for the increased importance of biosciences in nursing.
To address the implications of expanding nursing roles on the integration of biosciences.

Main Methods:

This article presents a critical review and argument.
It synthesizes current trends in nursing practice and education.

Main Results:

The marginalization of biosciences poses challenges for advanced nursing practice.

Related Experiment Videos

The expansion of roles, such as nurse prescribing, highlights a critical need for bioscience knowledge.

Conclusions:

Reintegrating biosciences into nursing is crucial for professional development.
Enhanced bioscience education is essential for nurses in expanded roles, particularly for safe and effective prescribing.
