Professional nursing organizations play a vital role in influencing the nursing profession and supporting nurses in achieving their professional goals. These organizations represent the interests of nurses at the national, state, and local levels, and work to advance the profession through advocacy, education, and research.
A way in which nursing organizations influence the profession is by promoting positions and goals that align with the personal worldview and philosophy of care of individual nurses. For example, some nursing organizations may advocate for patient-centered care, while others may prioritize evidence-based practice. Additionally, nursing organizations may support nurses in achieving their professional goals by providing continuing education opportunities and resources to enhance their knowledge and skills.
Another way in which nursing organizations influence the profession is through their work in shaping legislation that impacts the practice of nurses. For example, current legislation may impact the scope of practice for advanced registered nurses, such as nurse practitioners. Nursing organizations may work to influence this legislation by advocating for policies that support the ability of advanced registered nurses to provide high-quality care to patients.
Professional nursing organizations play a critical role in influencing the nursing profession and supporting nurses in achieving their professional goals through advocacy, education, and research, as well as working to shape legislation that impacts the practice of nurses.
