Current Trends in Nursing II

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,...

Ethical Issues

Ethical Issues

Nurses are essential in patient care, upholding the ethical principles of their profession and effectively navigating ethical dilemmas. Neglecting ethical issues can lead to inadequate patient care, compromised therapeutic relationships, and moral distress among healthcare workers.
Ethical Concerns in Healthcare:

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.

Obedience

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, obedience...

Nurses' Legal Responsibilities II

Nurses' Legal Responsibilities II

Establishing a secure, collaborative nurse-patient relationship is crucial for delivering high-quality care. This relationship, founded on trust, respect, and honesty, enhances the patient's comfort and willingness to share vital health information. For example, a nurse who listens actively and without judgment provides clear information about health conditions and treatment options and respects patient decisions, which builds a trusting relationship.
Communication between nurses and patients...

Area of Science:

Nursing
Healthcare Management
Occupational Health

Background:

Burnout is a significant concern among nurses.
Clinical supervision (CSN) is a potential strategy to mitigate burnout.
Existing evidence on the CSN-burnout relationship requires mapping.

Purpose of the Study:

To map existing scientific evidence on the relationship between clinical supervision and burnout among nurses.
To identify how clinical supervision has been conceptualized and evaluated in nursing practice.

Main Methods:

A comprehensive scoping review was conducted.
Searches included multiple databases (e.g., PubMed, CINAHL) and grey literature.
Data synthesis involved descriptive statistics and narrative presentation.

Main Results:

Twenty studies were included, predominantly cross-sectional.
Clinical supervision varied in delivery format, frequency, and theoretical grounding.
Nine studies reported inverse associations between CSN and burnout indicators.

Conclusions:

Clinical supervision is frequently linked to burnout and related outcomes in nurses.
Enhanced reporting, theoretical grounding, and research designs are needed.
CSN may be a valuable organizational support strategy for nurse well-being.
