Nursing professional development practice varies significantly. This study explored key responsibilities like education, competency management, and research within a multihospital system to understand these variations.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Professional Development
- Healthcare Management
Background:
- Nursing professional development (NPD) practice is guided by established standards.
- However, actual practice demonstrates variability based on experience, setting, and certification.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the practical application of nursing professional development responsibilities.
- To analyze variations in NPD practice within a multihospital system over 12 months.
Main Methods:
- Utilized the NPD Practice Model's throughputs/responsibilities as a framework.
- Focused on collaborative partnerships, competency management, education, onboarding/orientation, inquiry, and role development.
Main Results:
- Identified specific areas of NPD practice within the multihospital system.
- Documented the implementation of key NPD responsibilities over a 12-month period.
Conclusions:
- Understanding the practical application of NPD standards is crucial.
- Variations in NPD practice highlight the need for tailored approaches within healthcare systems.
