National Nursing Organizations II

1.9K
Nursing organizations play a vital role in representing nurses working in specialized clinical settings, such as the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN).
The AACN emphasizes a healthy work environment through six standards to achieve an optimal patient outcome. The standards are appropriate staffing, meaningful recognition, collaboration, authentic leadership, effective communication, and decision-making. In addition, AACN provides certification programs, webinars, journals, and...

Theoretical Foundations of Nursing Practice

16.8K
Theories play an essential role in organizing patient care. Theories refer to a proposed or followed belief, policy, or procedure that is the basis for action. Nursing theories are knowledge-based concepts that guide nurses' actions, influence nursing education and practice, and allow nurses to care for their patients.
Theories provide a perspective to assess patients' conditions and organize data and methods. They also assist in analyzing and interpreting information. They represent a...

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,...

The Scientific Method in Nursing Process

15.8K
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 Ethical Principles II01:27

Nursing Ethical Principles II

2.1K
Ethical principles are essential in guiding nurses to fulfill their responsibilities, focusing on the quality of nursing care and decision-making. These principles, including autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and fidelity, shape the ethical framework within healthcare settings.
Consider the following scenario, which illustrates how these principles are applied in the care of Mr. John, a fifty-year-old teacher diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer.
Initially, Mr. John's...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Science
  • Health Care Innovation
  • Academic Health Systems

Background:

  • Fostering a culture of inquiry in academic health systems presents unique challenges.
  • Strategic planning is crucial for navigating these complexities effectively.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development, implementation, and sustainability of a nursing science fellowship (NSF).
  • To evaluate the NSF's impact on nursing science skills and confidence within an academic health system.

Main Methods:

  • A nursing strategic map guided the NSF's establishment, led by a steering committee.
  • Key components included eligibility, curriculum, outcome measurement, and mentorship over three months.
  • A 13-month fellowship program with monthly lectures, mentorship, and a pre-program textbook was implemented.
  • Fellows' confidence in nursing science skills was assessed via pre- and post-program surveys.

Main Results:

  • Eight of eleven inaugural fellows completed the program, conducting research or evidence-based practice (EBP) projects.
  • Dissemination occurred through national presentations, posters, and peer-reviewed publications.
  • Significant improvements were noted in fellows' confidence, particularly in IRB submissions (148.54%), theoretical frameworks (86.92%), and evidence appraisal (68.07%).
  • Subsequent cohorts were initiated, indicating program sustainability.

Conclusions:

  • The NSF effectively sustained a culture of inquiry within the academic health system.
  • Strategic planning and stakeholder engagement are vital for advancing inquiry cultures.
  • The fellowship fosters professional curiosity, advances nursing science, and aligns with the ANCC Magnet model.
  • Such programs are essential for sustainable nursing research and EBP, driving professional growth and patient care innovation.
