Tag: Nursing shortage

You considered policy issues affecting nurses on a national scale. However, what about on a global scale? What issues are affecting healthcare on a global level? What initiatives are addressing these issues and/or impacting the field of nursing?

While it can be easy to focus specifically on our own practice and organization, healthcare is a global practice. And considering the impact of global initiatives, policy issues affecting nurses on a global scale can help us to better understand, remedy, connect, and even prepare for current or potential national issues.

For this Assignment, you will identify a global initiative impacting the nursing profession. You will defend, with evidence, your selection and discuss the impact.

Submit a 2-page paper that describes a global initiative that impacts the nursing profession. Defend, with evidence, why this particular initiative has the most impact and/or importance on the nursing profession.

Discuss at least one way that the nursing profession is currently working toward a resolution of this problem. In replies to peers, offer different examples of how the nursing shortage has been addressed in your state, community, or specialty area.

Explain how nursing shortage would improve with a change in policy outline a plan and discuss the details of how you would work to mobilize key players to become interested and get involved in implementing a proposed plan of action.

According to Abood (2007) As soon as one is aware of a situation in which a change in policy would improve the health care environment or the delivery system, one can move to exploring the pros and cons of possible solutions, and then work to get others interested and involved in the issue.
