Current Trends in Nursing II

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Nursing Evaluation

Nursing Evaluation

The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.

The Scientific Method in Nursing Process

The Scientific Method in Nursing Process

The scientific method provides the foundation for any research. It is the most reliable and objective of all forms of gaining knowledge and guides in applying research-based evidence in practice and conducting future research.
When using research findings to change practice, one must understand the process used to guide a study. The scientific method is a systematic, step-by-step process that supports the data's validity, reliability, and generalizability. As a result, findings can be...

Nursing Assessment

Nursing Assessment

The two sources for collecting information are primary and secondary. After gathering information, interpretation and validation help to complete the data. The purpose of assessment is to establish data with the initial information, to interpret data about the patient's perceived needs and health problems, and to respond to these problems identified.
The nurse collects all aspects of the patient's health in the initial assessment, establishing priorities for ongoing focused assessments...

Nursing Implementation

Nursing Implementation

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

Area of Science:

Nursing Leadership
Occupational Health
Healthcare Management

Background:

Nurse leader fatigue is a significant issue, yet understudied compared to staff nurse fatigue.
High demands on nurse leaders contribute to fatigue, risking patient, nurse, and organizational outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

To explore the experiences of fatigue among hospital nurse leaders.
To identify sources and consequences of nurse leader fatigue.
To understand coping strategies employed by fatigued nurse leaders.

Main Methods:

Mixed-methods approach using semi-structured interviews and the Occupational Fatigue Exhaustion Recovery scale.
Involved 21 nurse administrators (10 managers, 11 executives) from Midwestern hospitals.

Main Results:

A high prevalence of fatigue was reported among nurse leaders, with nurse managers experiencing higher chronic fatigue.
Key fatigue sources include 24-hour accountability and intense role expectations.
Consequences encompass impaired decision-making, work-life imbalance, and increased turnover intention.

Conclusions:

High nurse leader fatigue prevalence poses risks to quality of care and administrator turnover.
Healthcare organizations must adapt policies and programs to specifically address nurse leader fatigue.
