Inhaltsangabe

Creative Solutions to Enhance Nursing Quality serves as a resource to guide institutions through the Magnet journey, providing valuable information and insights that may actually hasten the Magnet designation process by enabling institutions to appropriately and thoroughly evaluate possible solutions. Each creative solution entry begins with a narrative description of the creative solution and the environment in which it was developed, a summary of how it was originally used to enhance quality, and its overall efficacy in meeting its purpose. The next section provides the nurse leader with the essential ingredients and step-by-step instructions for the implementation of the creative solution including a timeline, noting specific anticipated milestones. Finally, there is a brief discussion of how to adapt the creative solution to certain environments along with advice on how to achieve enculturation.
