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.

Obedience01:08

Obedience

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,...

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 Code of Ethics

2.3K
The Nursing Code of Ethics sets the ethical benchmark for the profession, and guides nurses in ethical analysis and decision making at the societal, organizational, and clinical levels. The code encompasses showing compassion and respect for the patient, their families, and communities in all circumstances while committing to providing patient-centered care. In addition, the code states that nurses must advocate for the patient by defending a cause or recommendation to protect their rights,...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Research
  • Healthcare Education
  • Evidence-Based Practice

Background:

  • The knowledge-practice gap in nursing hinders evidence-based practice.
  • Understanding nurses' perceptions is crucial for addressing this gap.
  • Current literature lacks comprehensive insights into nurses' views on this disconnect.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe nurses' perceptions of the knowledge-practice gap across knowledge, practice, environment, and learning domains.
  • To analyze how professional characteristics correlate with these perceptions.
  • To examine the interrelationships between the different domains of the gap.

Main Methods:

  • Cross-sectional descriptive correlational design.
  • Survey administered to 513 staff nurses using a Likert scale.
  • Data collected on professional variables (education, experience) and perceptions of the knowledge-practice gap.

Main Results:

  • Perceptions varied significantly with educational level and workshop attendance.
  • Knowledge, environment, and learning domains were positively correlated.
  • The knowledge and practice domains showed no significant correlation.
  • Professional characteristics influenced nurses' perceptions of the gap.

Conclusions:

  • Findings inform targeted hospital strategies to bridge the knowledge-practice gap.
  • The developed scale can serve as an assessment tool for healthcare leaders.
  • Addressing the gap requires considering nurses' unique perspectives and professional backgrounds.
