Professional Values

6.6K
Nurses are responsible for caring for patients during birth, death, illness, and healing. Professional values guide the decisions and actions that nurses make in their careers. If nurses know the decisions and actions to take, providing patients with exceptional care is possible.
The values that are the foundation of the nursing profession are altruism, autonomy, human dignity, and social justice.

The Professional Nurse

Professional nurses are not limited to bedside care and are taking roles of greater responsibility. A nurse should have a knowledge-based practice, including personal, theoretical, procedural, cultural, and reflexive knowledge. Additionally, nurses must be competent in cognitive, technical, interpersonal, and ethical/legal skills. Some of the best attributes of successful nurses include the following:
Communication skills: These are critical characteristics, especially speaking and listening.

Ethical Dilemmas I

Ethical dilemmas in nursing are of utmost importance, as they often arise from the tension between adhering to core ethical principles and the practical realities of healthcare delivery. These dilemmas require nurses to navigate complex situations where competing ethical considerations pull them in different directions.

Obedience

32.9K
According to obedience research, we may harm others under the forceful pressures of an authority figure (Milgram, 1974). How about if the inappropriate orders were delivered with less force? The increasing interdependence between nurses and physicians compelled Hofling and his colleagues to explore nurses’ reactions to a potentially harmful medical request made by the perceived authority figure, the doctor (Hofling, Brotzman, Dalrymple, Graves, & Pierce, 1966). In this situation,...

Accountability and Responsibility of a Nurse II

701
Professional accountability in nursing is a multifaceted concept that encompasses professional ethics, legal standards, and employment expectations. This framework ensures that nurses maintain and elevate the quality of care while upholding the values of their profession. It compels them to treat patients, families, and colleagues with respect, compassion, and integrity.
For example, a nurse demonstrating respect and compassion might listen attentively to a patient's concerns, provide...

Area of Science:

  • Dental Education Research
  • Professionalism in Healthcare

Background:

  • Professionalism is crucial in health professional education, yet evidence for its development and assessment is weak.
  • Recent incidents in Australia underscore the need for dental practitioners to uphold public safety through professionalism.
  • This study investigates evidence-based clinical education practices for fostering professionalism in dentistry.

Approach:

  • A systematic review of full-text, peer-reviewed papers on dental practitioners published between 2000 and June 2016.
  • Included studies encompassed all research designs, with rigorous quality appraisal and evidence grading.
  • Fifteen papers were evaluated, identifying eight distinct clinical education approaches.

Key Points:

  • Most studies were of low quality, reporting low-level educational outcomes (e.g., learner experience) based on Kirkpatrick's Hierarchy.
  • There is a significant lack of high-quality evidence supporting specific approaches to develop professionalism in dentistry.
  • Existing evidence primarily focuses on superficial educational outcomes rather than deeper professional development.

Conclusions:

  • The findings align with international trends in health professions education, where low-level outcomes are common.
  • A notable deficiency was the inadequate methodological justification and absence of a clear definition of dental professionalism.
  • An inter-professional strategy is recommended to address the challenges in developing and assessing dental professionalism.
