The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health

Purchased as a gift

This is a report on the possible expansions of the role of the professional registered nurse as health care delivery changes now and in the future. The task force based the majority of their opinions on research studies. Unfortunately most research studies about nurses address the advanced nurse practitioner. There is literally nothing evidence-based about the role of the registered nurse (RN).The most valuable point made is that nurses are linchpins for the health team - able to contact both internal and external providers and form constructive relationships with patients and caregivers. This leadership role will be essential if health systems comply with federal regulations and mandates. .

You will not use this book in N555PE. There are no assigned readings for the class. I have no idea why I needed to buy this. It does not support your capstone project. It is not useful. Save your 50 bucks and thank me when you open the weekly courses and see I am right.

This work is created to influence policy decisions regarding the future of nursing education and practice in the United States. The "Key Messages" point to changes needed to potentiate Registered Nurses' current positions in the fractionated U.S healthcare system. Basically, the work posits that because RNs occupy the space closest to the patient, both physically and influentially, empowering RNs via education and role policy changes should result in positive outcomes for the healthcare system. This work is a primer for leaders in the healthcare industry.

Yikes, My book is missing pages. it is missing pages 374-642. i got a C on my quiz due to the in ability to study because these pages were missing. it is not amazons fault but i do not know who to contact in regards to a replacement book. this is unacceptable and i warn anyone who buys it that pages may be missing due to manufacture error

Although this is available online I like to have nice texts for easy reference.

I needed to work with this material for school, but after getting into the topic, I believe it should be read by any nurse. This is the model of the future of nursing that will guide education, healthcare transformation and how a nurse functions at the bedside or desk-side.

It's a MUST HAVE if you care where the profession of Nursing is headed and the challenges that are in our futures. It should be read by every Nursing faculty member, every Nursing student, every Nursing administrator, and every nurse in clinical practice whatever your setting.
