The Professional Nurse

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.

Nursing Interventions I: Taxonomy of Nursing Interventions

Nursing Interventions I: Taxonomy of Nursing Interventions

Nursing interventions are chosen as part of the planning process to achieve patient outcomes. Once nursing diagnoses are determined, the goals and outcomes are specified, then the nursing interventions are selected and individualized according to the patient's situation.
A nursing intervention is a treatment or action based on scientific concepts and knowledge from the nursing, behavioral, and physical sciences. Identifying and prioritizing nursing interventions based on the desired outcome...

Nursing Interventions II: Selecting and Classifying the Nursing Interventions

Creating and executing a nursing diagnosis helps nurses plan care and guide patient, family, and community interventions. They are developed based on a patient's physical evaluation and support measuring the outcomes. It is not recommended to select random interventions throughout the planning process. Instead, consider the following six essential factors when choosing interventions:

Heart Failure VII: Nursing Interventions

The first step in nursing management of a patient with heart failure involves thoroughly assessing the patient's medical history.Subjective Data: Obtain the patient's medical history of coronary artery disease, hypertension, myocardial infarction, and symptoms like dyspnea, orthopnea, and paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea.Objective Data: Conduct a physical examination to identify findings such as jugular vein distention, pulmonary crackles, tachycardia, murmurs, peripheral edema, and vital signs,...

Professional Values

Professional Values

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.
First, altruism refers to the concern for the welfare and well-being of others without personal...

Role of Communication in the Nursing Process I: Assessment and Diagnosis

Role of Communication in the Nursing Process I: Assessment and Diagnosis

The nursing process uses scientific reasoning, problem-solving, and critical thinking to guide nurses in providing patients with appropriate care. This process is a systematic approach to recognize, avoid, and treat current or potential health issues while promoting the patient's well-being.
The nursing process considers the patient's emotional and physical well-being. The process can be repeated or stopped at any point if judged essential. Assessment is the first step in the nursing...

Area of Science:

Nursing Education
Healthcare Workforce Development
Clinical Transition

Background:

Newly graduated nurses face significant challenges transitioning to practice, contributing to high turnover and workforce shortages.
Tailored transition programs are crucial for supporting these nurses and improving healthcare quality.
This study assessed the feasibility of a 2-year transition program for newly graduated nurses in a medical ward setting.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the feasibility of a 2-year transition program for newly graduated nurses.
To assess the program's acceptability, demand, implementation, practicality, integration, and efficacy.

Main Methods:

A feasibility study employing triangulation of qualitative semi-structured interviews and quantitative registration data.
Data collected from 23 newly graduated nurses and 12 providers via interviews and surveys.
Analysis involved directed content analysis for interview data.

Main Results:

Newly graduated nurses completed 84% of program elements; cancellations were mainly due to sick leave or time constraints.
The program was generally perceived as acceptable and suitable, with specific components like outpatient rotations and supervision rated highly.
Dissatisfaction arose from unmet expectations regarding planned conversations and followership; preceptor presence positively impacted integration and job satisfaction.

Conclusions:

A 2-year transition program is feasible in complex medical hospital ward settings.
The program effectively supports newly graduated nurses' transition into practice.
The extended timeframe accommodates the program's multi-component nature and enhances nurse confidence.
