Most healthcare organizations have mission statements regarding how they are attempting to facilitate the best possible treatment to patients. Nurses are often the focal point of those treatment options, particularly since they are regularly called upon to administer it and work closely with patients to achieve desired outcomes. Without a holistic, systematic way of determining which evidence-based practices are incorporated into healthcare facilitates and how they are to be done so, there are pronounced points of departure between actuating those patient goals and providing a consistent means for doing so.
A basic cognizance of systems theory and systems thinking underscores the aforementioned point. Nurses must integrate a number of different systems to effect proper care concerning environmental factors (Neuman, 1996), individual, patient-centered ones, as well as sanitary and psychological concerns. The complexity of such integration becomes amplified when one considers the different nursing fields which these practitioners must consider these systems for as well. Thus, it is necessary to have a structured approach to incorporating evidence-based practice which is applicable to all of these systems and to the way they relate to nursing statements for specific organizations. Without such an orderly approach to identifying and implementing evidence-based practices, nurses and their organizations are largely unaware of which approaches produce the greatest utility for patients. Therefore, they will not be able to successfully reach organizational objectives for treating patients as well as they could were their some systemic method to utilizing evidence-based practices.
Nursing The Nurse as Learner and Teacher Nursing is truly a lifelong study. While in school, a future nurse learns the tactics and the theory of the profession, and while in practice, he or she learns the social part of the profession, including interaction with patients, and difficulties relating to the workplace, and how to solve the latter.

Nurse Implementation Plan Implementation Plan It is important to understand that plans do not simply manifest themselves into existence and a specific implementation effort is needed to ensure that the evidence presented in research efforts can be used to practical ends. Although the solution appears to be clear and succinct, putting into this plan into action requires a plan of its own. To do this effectively, Lewin's model of change theory can

Nursing Nurses have a direct personal responsibility to help, serve, and care for others. This is true especially for nurses working in underdeveloped nations or with underserved, politically disenfranchised, or vulnerable communities. Yet nurses must take care not to generalize about working in underserved communities, because regardless of the socioeconomic factors, there will be significant cultural dimensions that need to be taken into account. Language, customs, and communication styles are all
