NUR514 Organizational Leadership and Informatics
Week 4 Discussion
DQ1 Are there professional barriers to being involved with the legislative process, such as retaliation from institutions or individuals who do not share your same viewpoints? What steps would you take to ensure you can represent the advanced registered nurse as a leader and patient advocate under these types of circumstances?
DQ2 Chapter 14 in the textbook, Leadership in Nursing Practice: Changing the Landscape of Health Care, discusses the nursing profession’s lack of representation in health care policymaking, even though nurses currently represent the largest profession within the health care industry. The text suggests that this may be related to gender inequality, with women making up a large percentage of the nursing profession. Do you see any correlation to this argument?

Discussion in Week 4
DQ1 Are there any professional hurdles to participating in the legislative process, such as reprisal from institutions or persons who disagree with your point of view? What actions would you take to ensure that you can represent the advanced registered nurse in these situations as a leader and patient advocate?
DQ2 Despite the fact that nurses are the largest profession in the health-care business, Chapter 14 of the textbook, Leadership in Nursing Practice: Changing the Landscape of Health Care, highlights the nursing profession’s lack of representation in health-care legislation. According to the text, this could be due to gender inequity, as women make up a substantial portion of the nursing profession. Do you notice anything?
