Inhaltsangabe

The Essence of Nursing: Developing a Nursing Identity guides nursing students through the process of professional identity formation. The book details professional nursing concepts essential for contemporary nursing practice as identified by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) and other professional nursing organizations, as well as curriculum concepts emphasized by nursing accreditation bodies and other healthcare organizations. Structured to support competency-based education and featuring contributions from a diverse collective of nursing and healthcare professionals, the book explores professionalism, ethics, interprofessional partnerships, and person-centered care. It helps readers develop skills for critical thinking, evidence-based decision-making, and the application of professional nursing concepts in their roles. The text is organized into coherent units that build upon each other to advance knowledge and skills. The Essence of Nursing is designed to support undergraduate nursing students at various educational stages, including associate degree programs (ADN) and baccalaureate tracks (BSN, RN-BSN, accelerated or second-degree BSN programs). It is also ideal for courses in nursing leadership, policy and advocacy, professionalism, role competencies, and the knowledge of nursing practice at both undergraduate and graduate levels.
