Nursing profession is faced with a lot of complex health issues. REASONS: ○ Technological and medical achievements. ○ Increased Elderly Population ○ Increased Patients with chronic illness Collaboration is a substantive idea repeatedly discussed in healthcare circles. Though the benefits are well validated, collaboration is seldom practiced. The complexity of collaboration and the skills required to facilitate the process are formidable. Much of the literature on collaboration describes what it should look like as an outcome, but little is written describing how to approach the developmental process of collaboration. They learn the group process through participation, involvement, & guided exercises. 1. DYAD Two person’s groups. 3. Group Two or more people who have shared needs & goals, who take each other into account in their actions and set themselves apart from others by virtue of their interactions. Group dynamics Communication that takes place between members of any group. Functions of group dynamics: 1. Develop and modify its structure for effectiveness. 2. Maintain a degree of unity and cohesion. 3. Accomplish the goals. TYPES OF HEALTH CARE GROUPS: 1. Self- awareness Relationship between one’s perception of oneself and others perception of oneself. Purpose is to develop or use interpersonal strengths. 4. Team Delivery of coordinated care to individual clients by a group of health providers. PARTNERSHIP IN HEALTHCARE What is partnership working in health and social care? BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 ❖ Brings together separate organizations so that they can benefit from pooled expertise, resources and power sharing. ❖ The goal of a partnership is to enhance the efficiency and quality of service provision. ❖ According to the Knowledge Biz, most partnerships share the following traits: All parties involved have some sort of personal stake in the partnership. All partners are working towards a common goal. The partners have a similar ethos or system of beliefs. The partners work together over a reasonable period of time. There is a mutual understanding of the value of each partner’s contribution. There is respect and trust between the partners. “A working relationship becomes a true partnership when all parties contribute a reasonable measure of series resources.” “The successful and effective partnerships should always have effective vision and leadership and there should be strong willingness to learn and listen among the partnership.” Multi-professional Many professionals like nurses, doctors, and pharmacists etc. work together to achieve some common goals in health. Multispectral Sectoral partnership, many organizations from different sectors of the society work together but independently. COLLABORATION IN HEALTH CARE “Collaborative care is a partnership relationship between doctors, nurses and other health care providers with patients and their families.” - Virginia Henderson “Collaboration is nurses and physicians cooperatively working together sharing responsibility for solving problems and making decisions to formulate and carry out plans for patient care.” -Baggs and schmitt, 1988 THE KEY ELEMENTS FOR A SUCCESSFUL HEALTH CARE PARTNERSHIP IN HEALTH PROMOTION, PREVENTION, CURE, SUPPORT AND REHABILITATION: COMMUNICATION Each involved entity should be well informed about the action. COORDINATION The partner can work separate but each other’s action should always be coordinated. COLLABORATION The partner should cohesively work together. OBJECTIVES OF COLLABORATION INTEGRATION Though they are the partners, they still should work together as one agency. TYPES OF PARTNERSHIPS Multidisciplinary Involves various entities from the same sector working independently to achieve a common purpose. Provide client-directed and client-centered care using a multidisciplinary, integrated, participative framework. Enhance continuity across continuum of care Improve client and family satisfaction with care Improve client and family satisfaction with care Improve client and family satisfaction with care Provide quality, cost effective, research based care Promote mutual respect, communication Develop interdependence TYPES OF RELATIONSHIP AMONG HEALTH PROFESSIONALS Complementary relationship One person is dominant and the other is submissive. Control is not divided equally between two participants. BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 Relationships are stable and predictable and also inhibit creativity and independent thinking. Symmetrical relationships Control is more evenly distributed between the two participants Free to express their opinions Power struggles occurs when participants compete to acquire or give up control Parallel relationships Control moves back and forth between the two participants Participants take turns holding and giving control depending on the circumstances, rather than competing for control Effective and flexible communication TEAMWORK IN HEALTH CARE Is defined as two or more people who interact interdependently with a common purpose, working toward a measurable goal that benefits from leadership that maintains stability while encouraging honest discussion and problem solving. Researchers have found that integrating services among many health providers is a key component to better treat underserved populations and communities with limited access to health care. Employs the practices of collaboration and enhanced communication to expand the traditional roles of health workers and to make decisions as a unit that works toward a common goal. A multidisciplinary profession in which doctors, nurses, health professionals from different specialties must work together, communicate often, and share resources. Health teams are often made up of a variety of professionals - called cadres in health care - each with specialized knowledge and responsible for different tasks. These multidisciplinary teams are made up to solve health problems. Successful health teams strive to understand the patient’s situation, ask probing questions about the problem, make an initial assessment and, after discussion, provide a recommendation. Teams can also work together to develop health promotion for diverse communities and instill disease prevention behaviors amongst patients. BENEFITS OF TEAMWORK For the Patient: ○ Reduces the number of medical errors and increases patient safety. ○ Improved patient satisfaction and outcome For the Nurses: ○ Quickly learn new methods ○ Higher Job Satisfaction ○ Increased Professional Satisfaction and Outcome ○ Lower Rates of Job Turnover ○ Improved Engagement in the Workplace MEASURES THAT PROMOTES PARTNERSHIPS, COLLABORATION AND TEAMWORK ROLES OF THE NURSE IN PCT ❖ With Nurse Colleagues Share personal expertise with other nurses and elicit the expertise of others to ensure quality client care. Develops a sense of trust and mutual respect with peers that recognizes their unique contributions. ❖ With other health care professionals Recognizes the contribution that each member of the interprofessional team can make by virtue of his or her expertise and view of the situation. Listens to each individual’s views. Shares health care responsibilities in exploring options, setting goals, and making decisions with clients and families. Participants in collaborative interprofessional research to increase knowledge of a clinical problem or situation. ❖ With Professional Nursing Organizations Seeks opportunities to collaborate with and within professional organizations Serves in communities in state and national nursing organizations or specialty groups. Supports professional organizations in political action to create solutions for professional and healthcare concerns. ❖ With Legislators Offers expert opinions on legislative initiatives related to health care. Collaborates with other health care providers & consumers on healthcare legislation to best serve the needs of the public. BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 CONCEPTS ON LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT: PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE ENVIRONMENT (PPE) ❖ Healthcare is challenged to reinvent itself to be quality driven, fiscally sound and evidence based. To accomplish this shift, healthcare needs to be agile and innovative. ❖ Since healthcare (and nursing care in particular) is emotionally, mentally, spiritually and physically demanding, a positive PPEN is essential to recruit and retain the best and brightest caregivers. ❖ One of the important responsibilities of a nurse leader and manager is to provide a Positive Professional Practice Environment (PPE). ❖ A positive professional practice (PPE) is vital to : Assure safety of patients and staff Improve professional staff recruitment and retention Sustain an organization’s financial viability. WHY IS THERE A NEED TO STUDY LEADERSHIP & MANAGEMENT Severe shortage of healthcare professionals, causing crisis. Growing demand for an increased population. Not ideal ratio between nurse and patient. Lack of budget, supplies, and facilities Increase morbidity and mortality rates. LEADERSHIP VS. MANAGEMENT LEADERSHIP A means of persuasion and example by which an individual induces a group to take action in accord with a purpose common to everyone. A process by which one inspires others to work together for the achievement of a common mission and goal. A vital ingredient which transforms a mere crowd into a functional and useful ingredient. MANAGEMENT Is a generic function that includes similar basic tasks in every discipline and in every society. The art of getting things done through people. Uses delegated authority within a formal organization to organize, direct and control subordinates so services are coordinated. Is a process of getting things done through people. It supervises people and uses resources in doing the tasks. Management is responsible for initiating steps by which organizational goals and objectives are accomplished. Nurse can hold a management position but fail to realize that this position does not define her leadership qualities. Good nurse leader but not a good manager, when a leader is: ○ Able to inspire her followers (ability to initiate and innovative) ○ Able to lift the staff’s morale ○ Able to motivate her followers to think of a solution to an existing problem. Leaders get other people to do something, while managers get other people to do what they do not want to do. Management works within the paradigm. Leadership creates new paradigms. Management works within the system. Leadership works on the system. You manage “things” but you lead “people” However, leadership and management do not have to work against one another. As these descriptions imply, leadership can be effective managers and managers can be effective leaders. Managers ○ Have a formal authority to direct the work of a given set of employees ○ Are formally responsible for the quality of that work and what it costs to do it. ○ Neither of these conditions is necessary to be a leader Leadership ○ An essential part of effective management, but the reverse is not true. You do not have to be a manager to be a leader but you do need to be a good leader to be an effective manager. ○ You can be the youngest, the newest, or even the least experienced nurse yet you still have opportunities to be a leader. These opportunities will increase as your experience increases and so will your readiness to assume managerial responsibility. BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 Decreased absenteeism Reduced turnover Reduced distress/emotional exhaustion Less incivility Positive PPEs have lower staff turnover, lower absenteeism, fewer preventable errors, higher nurse satisfaction and greater nure management. These outcomes reduce the costs of care and improve patient outcomes. Nurse managers are reported as the single greatest influence on a positive professional practice environment (PPE). PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE ENVIRONMENT Negative PPE leads to ineffective collaboration due to intimidating behavior between interdisciplinary team members (ISMP, 2013) and dangerous communication patterns (AHRQ, 2012). Negative PPEs struggle with low staff and patient satisfaction, safety issues, greater preventable errors, increased incivility (or lateral violence) with coworkers and practices inflexible based on “ we have always done it that way”. KEYS TO POSITIVE PPE Communication Collaboration Decision making Leadership KSAs TO FACILITATE POSITIVE PPE OUTCOMES OF POSITIVE PPE Increased job satisfaction Increased trust in management Increased group cohesion Increased job enjoyment Increased flexible/adaptable culture Increased psychologically safe climate KNOWLEDGE: Global thinking, national healthcare arena, QI, change from volume to value, finance/budgeting, supporting evidence based practice, change management models. SKILL: Coaching, team building, giving feedback, handling problems behavior, BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 relationship building, leading practice based on evidence. ATTITUDE: Self-reflection, recognize own behaviors and others, reward and recognition. NEEDS FOR CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WHAT IS CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT (CPD)? ❖ CPD is the means by which members of the profession maintain, improve and broaden their knowledge, expertise and competence, and develop the personal and professional qualities required throughout their professional lives. ❖ It is an ongoing, planned, learning and development process that: Enables all staff members to expand and fulfill their potential. Contributes to their work based and personal development. Can be applied or assessed against competencies for the staff members role and organizational performance. DO YOU THINK CPD IS IMPORTANT AND WHY? OBJECTIVES OF CPD Keep up to date with new concepts and development in the health field. To increase their knowledge and skills and develop positive attitudes. Develop an ability to analyze problems and to work with others. Meet the challenge of change in technology. Maintain the standards of health at an acceptable level. Help in setting standards of performance. Motivate staff for better patient care. Meet new needs of the community. To assist the nursing educator in increasing the teaching effectiveness. To develop leadership potential in nurses. NOTE: CPD needs careful planning in order to achieve the goal of a person because through planning you can already forecast your activities, the target dates and even budgeting so that there will be no failure. To ensure safe & effective nursing care To meet the needs of populations and should cater to the needs of service Development of nurses by updating their knowledge For career advancement - Example: pursuing higher education To acquire specialized skills. Examples: Stoma care nurse, CAPD nurse It provides opportunities for professional growth. Nurses with research aptitude and preparation are needed. Nurses in administrative positions need to increase their understanding of the administrative process. The demand for specialized nursing services is increasing more rapidly. Planned programmes are needed to increase their competence as practitioners. It gives knowledge that may help you to deal with new or complex situations It will give confidence in your role It will demonstrate your commitment to developing your knowledge and skills in a subject area. The ultimate outcome of well planned continuing professional development is that it safeguards the public, the employer, the profession and professional’s career. CPD ensures that your capabilities keep pace with the current standards of others in the same field. CPD helps advance the body of knowledge and technology within your profession. CPD helps you continue to make a meaningful contribution to your team. You become more effective in the workplace. This assists you to advance in your career and move into new positions where you can lead, manage, influence, coach and mentor others. Depending on the profession - CPD contributes to improved protection and quality of life , the environment, sustainability, property and the economy. CPD ○ Sometimes it is mandated by professional organizations or required BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 ○ by codes of conduct or codes of ethics. But at its core it is a personal responsibility of professionals to keep their knowledge and skills current so that they can deliver the high quality of service that safeguards the public and meets the expectations of customers and the requirements of their profession.

STRATEGIC PLANNING Strategic Planning of Professional Self is another method of planning your professional BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 life in the future for your career path. Through this method, this will help you identify your needs for COPD. ○ STRATEGIC PLANNING IN HEALTH CARE Enables an organization to look into the future in an orderly and systematic way, ensures that a hospital remains relevant and responsive to patient and community needs and provides a clear and consistent organizational focus. It also provides a basis for monitoring progress, results and impact. Is a longer type of planning because the planning is done through forecasting the future 3-5 years from now Usually done in an organization and rarely done by an individual. WHAT IS LIFELONG LEARNING? “The continuous building of skills and knowledge throughout the life of an individual. It occurs through experiences encountered in the course of a lifetime.” Learning that doesn’t happen in school or a classroom; an ongoing journey of learning through experiences. LIFELONG LEARNING IS ABOUT Acquiring and updating all kinds of abilities, interests, knowledge, and qualifications. Valuing all forms of learning Taking more control of our futures. Knowledge is like a muscle: the more it is used, the bigger and stronger it gets. Our brains all have a feature called neuroplasticity. That means we develop new neural pathways from our experiences. You're never too old to learn! It also means you get to take responsibility for identifying what you need to learn and how you will learn it. Studies have shown that professionals learn more effectively when they take the initiative to direct their own learning. Critical thinking and critical reflection both pay an important role in lifelong learning. When you ask yourself questions about knowledge and how you know what you know, you are looking for evidence that supports your knowledge. What does this all mean for nurses? Lifelong learning helps nurses build and maintain their clinical competency. There is an expectation that learning and development is an essential component of professional practice. Nurses need to integrate new knowledge with existing knowledge to create new understanding. ○ They need to be self-directed in their acquisition of knowledge. Lifelong learning is an integral part of your journey towards becoming an experienced practitioner. ○ But experience alone is not enough! You need to use it in combination with evidence based practice to ensure quality patient care. ○ That means the advancement of nursing (and patient care) depends on the creation of a culture where educational growth is encouraged. ○ In an environment that is rapidly changing and becoming increasingly complex because of Increased morbidity Higher acuity Emerging technologies Aging population Reduced funding Consider using SWOT analysis to identify learning needs. Strengths Weaknesses (room for improvement) Opportunities Threats CHARACTERISTICS OF LIFELONG LEARNERS Innovative Flexible Adaptable Change agent Creative Self reliant Accountable Curios BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 LESSON 5: Ethico-Moral and Legal Considerations in the Practice of Nursing LEGAL ASPECTS OF NURSING INTRODUCTION Nursing practice is governed by many legal concepts. It is important for nurses to know the basics of legal concepts, because nurses of legal accountable for their professional judgements and actions. Accountability is an essential concept of professional nursing practice and the law. Knowledge of laws that regulate and affect nursing practice is needed for two reasons: 1. To ensure that the nurse’s decisions and actions are consistent with current legal principles. 2. To protect the nurse from liability.

INFORMED CONSENT ETHICAL AND LEGAL ISSUES Comprehensive Review for Nurses INFORMED CONSENT Is the client’s approval (or that of the client’s legal representative) to have his or her body touched by a specific individual CONSENTS Or releases, are legal documents that indicate the client’s permission to perform surgery, perform a treatment or procedure, or give information to a third party. A client’s questions about the surgery or procedure must be answered before signing the consent. A consent must be signed freely by the client without threat or pressure and must be witnessed (witness must be an adult) A client who has been medicated with sedating medications or any other medications that can affect the client’s cognitive abilities should not be asked to sign a consent. Legally, the client must be mentally and emotionally competent to give consent. If the client is declared mentally or emotionally incompetent, the next of kin, appointed guardian (appointed by the court), or durable power of attorney has legal authority to give consent. TYPES OF CONSENTS ⮚ Admission Agreement- are obtained at the time of admission and identify the health care agency’s responsibility to the client ⮚ Immunization Consent- may be required before the administration of certain immunizations; the consent indicates that the client was informed of the benefits and risks of the immunization. ⮚ Blood Transfusion Consent- indicates that the client was informed of the benefits and risks of the transfusion. Some clients hold religious beliefs that would prohibit them from receiving a blood transfusion, even in a life-threatening situation. ⮚ Surgical Consent- is obtained for all surgical or invasive procedures or diagnostic tests that are invasive. The physician, surgeon, or anesthesiologist who performs the operative or other procedure is responsible for explaining the procedure, its risks and benefits, and possible alternative options. ⮚ Research Consent- obtains permission from the client regarding participation in a research study. The consent informs the client about the possible risks, consequences, and benefits of the research. ⮚ Special Consents- are required for the use of restraints, photographing the client, disposal of body parts during surgery, donating organs after death, or performing an autopsy. INFORMED CONSENT Indicated the client’s participation in the decision regarding health care. The client must be informed, in understandable terms, of the risks and MENTALLY OR EMOTIONALLY IMCOMPETENT CLIENTS Declared incompetent Unconscious Under the influence of chemical agents such as alcohol or drugs Chronic dementia or other mental deficiency that impairs thought processes and ability to make decisions INFORMED CONSENT (continuation) A competent client older than 18 years of age must sign the consent. In most cases, when a nurse is involved in the informed consent process, the nurse is witnessing only the signature of the client on the informed consent form. An informed consent can be waived for urgent medical or surgical; intervention as long as institutional policy so indicates. A client has the right to refuse information and waive the informed consent and undergo treatment, but this decision must be documented in the medical record. A client may withdraw consent at any time. REMINDER! An informed consent is a legal document, and the client must be informed, in BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 understandable terms, of the risks and benefits of surgery, treatments, procedures, and plan of care. The client needs to be a participant in decisions regarding health care. MINORS A minor is a client under legal age as defined by state (usually younger than 18 years) A minor may not give legal consent, and consent must be obtained from a parent or the legal guardian. Parental or guardian consent should be obtained before treatment is initiated for a minor except in the following cases: in an emergency; in situations in which the consent of the minor is sufficient, including treatment related to substance abuse, treatment of a sexually transmitted infection, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) treatment, birth control services, pregnancy, or psychiatric services; the minor is an emancipated minor; or a court order or other legal authorization has been obtained EMANCIPATED MINOR An emancipated minor has established independence from his or her parents through marriage, pregnancy, service in the armed forces, or by a court order. An emancipated minor is considered legally capable of signing an informed consent. Data is one of the most used in this century. It does not only transcend to less important but also to the most sensitive data as well.

Data Protection - this is concerned with the ways third parties handle the information they hold about us - how it is collected, processed, shared, stored, and used - it is also subject to limits ❖ Example: A warrant is obtained allowing law enforcement to access the phone records of a suspect. - how it is applied legally can still vary depending on which country you’re in. The digital age has created new ways to collect,access, analyze and use data, often across multiple borders and jurisdictions. - it poses challenges for human rights ❖ One challenge relates to the way companies use our data ❖ Another challenge relates to the collection of personal data by governments The internet’s business model depends on people sharing their personal data in exchange for access to content, services and social media platforms. Technological developments now enable governments to monitor our conversations, transactions, and the locations we visit. In some countries - including Russia, Brazil, Australia and South Korea - companies are legally required to store this data for long periods of time, making it easier for governments to get information on their citizens. ❖ These measures are often introduced in the name of fighting cybercrime and terrorism ❖ Without adequate protections, this data can easily be abused to target dissidents and activists - undermining freedom of expression and the rights to association and assembly There are many bodies and forums where privacy and data protection issues are discussed and defined: National and regional courts have a crucial role here The European Court of Human Rights, for example, has imposed limits on ‘Stop and search’ practices by the police, and on the amount of time data can be legally retained. At the national level, it’s common to find a specific public body responsible for privacy and data protection. ❖ This can be a specialist post or an ombudsman But the extent to which privacy is defined and protected varies greatly between different jurisdictions. ❖ Example: there is no clear right to privacy in the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights (ACHPR) Following a UN resolution on the right to privacy in the Digital Age, the Human Rights Council has established a new Special Rapporteur for Privacy and various internet policy forums like the: ❖ Internet Governance Forum (IGF) ❖ Council of Europe ❖ Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development and conferences like: ❖ HOPE ❖ CyFy contributing to shaping the scope of privacy in the digital age. The decisions of the companies can also have a huge impact on data protection and privacy rights. ❖ Example: By building end-to-end encryption into their software, as WhatsApp did in early 2016 Two Examples of Privacy and Data Protection in the Real World 1. Apple vs. FBI case - After the 2016 terrorist attacks in the US city of Bernardino, the FBI asked apple for the information on the iPhone of one of the suspects. - However, Apple’s operating system is encrypted and only accessible through a pin code - The FBI asked Apple to modify the system to let them in. - Apple refused - opening a lively debate on the right to privacy versus security needs - The case was almost taken to court but in the end the FBI found a vulnerability to crack the phone. - In privacy terms, this was a legal setback. BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 - If the case had gone to court, it could have helped popularise the risks of weakening encryption for society and establish what constitutes a legitimate limitation on privacy by the state 2. Surveillance in Kenya - In Kenya, a combination of invasive surveillance measures and a lack of adequate data protection facilitated a crackdown on civil society in 2013, which was documented by Peace Brigades International. - Many Human Rights defenders had their offices raided, computers hacked and phones tapped by the government - One of the ways human rights defenders have been fighting back us by pushing for the ratification of Kenya’s first data protection law, long stalled in Parliament. - If implemented properly, this could limit the worst excesses of state surveillance So what can human rights defenders do to protect and strengthen privacy and data protection? 1. An easy first step is taking digital self security measures yourself. ❖ using of encryption and anonymity tools ❖ encouraging your friends to do the same 2. Human right defenders also advocate for alternative digital business models, which aren’t based on the extraction and sale of data ❖ Economic pressure on the existing model is already growing ❖ Example: over the last few years, the number of users using adblock software globally has exploded ❖ There is evidence that this is already pushing companies to less invasive advertising practices 3. Engagement in debates at the national and regional level is, of course, crucial. ❖ When privacy protections are weak, human rights defenders need to actively advocate for stronger ones. 4. Make sure legislation is keeping up with new technological developments. ❖ Internet of things 5. If we want things to change, human rights defenders need to make these issues accessible and relatable by being more creative about the way we talk to them ETHICO-MORAL ASPECTS IN NURSING In their daily work, nurses deal with intimate and fundamental human events such as birth, death, and suffering. They must decide the morality of their own actions when they face the many ethical issues that surround such sensitive areas. Because of the special nurse-client relationship, nurses are the ones who are there to support and advocate for clients and families who are facing difficult choices, and for those who are living the results of choices that others make for and about them. The present environment of cost containment and the nursing shortage tends to emphasize business values. This creates new moral problems and intensifies old ones, making it more critical than ever for nurses to make sound moral decisions. Therefore, nurses need to: a. develop sensitivity to the ethical dimensions of nursing practice b. examine their own and clients' values c. understand how values influence their decisions d. think ahead about the kinds of moral problems they are likely to face.

As rapid change continues to transform the profession of nursing and health care system Today. Nurses bring knowledge, leadership, spirit , and vital expertise to expanding roles that afford increased participation , responsibility and rewards. DEFINITION OF NURSING Florence Nightingale - the act of utilizing the environment of the patient to assist him in his recovery”. nightingale considered a clean , well ventilated and quite environment essential for recovery Virginia Henderson - the unique function of the nurse is to assist the individual , sick or well, in the performance of those activities contributing to health or its recovery (or peaceful death) CANADIAN NURSES ASSOCIATION Describe nursing practice as dynamic caring. Helping relationships in which the nurse assist the client the client to achieve and obtain optimal health CERTAIN THEMES ARE COMMON TO MANY OF THESE DEFINITION Nursing is caring Nursing is an art Nursing is a science Nursing client centered Nursing is holistic Nursing is adaptive Nursing is concerned with health promotion, health maintenance and health restoration. Nursing is a helping profession NURSING AS A SCIENCE It is the “body of abstract knowledge” arrived through scientific research and logical analysis Is the scientific knowledge and skills in assisting individuals to achieve optimal health. It is the diagnosis and treatment of human responses to actual or potential problems. WHAT IS AN ART? The expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, produces works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power. WHAT MAKES NURSING AN ART? The art of nursing may have been in each person even before entering the profession. That innate capacity to respond to the needs of individuals is already the art of nursing. In nursing school, this vivacity is awakened through constant interaction with the patients in various settings. Nurses are called to perform relational work. Therefore, the motivation to keep that art is BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 un should be continuously burning. We have the power to heal the sick. An effective nurse is one who gives nursing care independently and collaboratively with other healthcare teams. The art of nursing comes in as a nurse independently does his or her job. The options s/he considers in taking a certain action and ultimately the action s/he does to respond to patient needs are the art of nursing It is in the nurses' hands to promote positive changes in patients. Everyday we are faced with patients who are in different conditions. In this case, individualized nursing care is noteworthy. Knowledge is not enough. Compassionate care is paramount. The art of nursing is our ability to connect with those around us. It is only when we begin direct patient care that we become aware of the art of nursing. The word art can be used to describe the result of a particular task as well as the knowledge and skill required to perform that task. Like other more fashionable art forms, nursing can be dramatic, inspirational, comedic, relaxing,comforting, joyful, and even sad. Nursing is also creative, existential, and has a particular rhythm. This intangible connection can create an environment of healing that allows patients to fully participate in their own recovery process. Nurses teach, support, communicate, medicate, and coordinate patient-care events. Nurses are patient advocates who provide comfort and hope to our patients and their families. The art of nursing is in play when we just know what to do to meet a patient's emotional needs: when to hold a patient's hand, stroke their brow, crack a joke or even just sit and listen. Most of this is being accomplished simultaneously during each patient interaction "The science of nursing allows us to care for our patient's bodies ; but it's the art of nursing that calls me to the profession and allows each nurse to touch souls.” Nursing...its very essence lies in the creative imagination , the sensitive spirit , and the intelligent understanding that provides the very foundation for effective nursing care. Donahue (1985 ) Is the art of caring for sick and well individuals. It refers to the dynamic skills and methods in assisting sick and well individuals in their recovery and in the promotion and maintenance of health. It involves the creative application of knowledge in the service of people NURSING SKILLS BED BATH: SHOWING NURSING SCIENCE AND AN ART When removing a patient’s clothes, notice how careful they are (keeping the patient covered and protecting their dignity at all times) and maintaining the privacy of the patient so that they don’t feel awkward is an art. - It’s an art because you are trying to maintain a kind helping relationship with the patient. - You are applying the value of respect and privacy to the patient Why do we start and follow the sequence of cleaning the face first then, the arms, chest legs and lastly the perineum? - Because scientifically we wash from the cleanest down to the dirtiest - Even the arms, we start from distal to proximal (from the wrist to the axilla) - And the one stroke from proximal to distal is the art Science and art should go together because that’s the holistic approach of caring Why do we need to put a towel on the cleaned legs before washing the feet? - Because by art we want the patient to be comfortable - And by science we don’t want the cleaned legs to be contaminated by the lenins or sheets BED MAKING: HRM VS.

Science + art = caring CARING they have made a difference in their clients' lives. When nurses feel free to concentrate their attention on others they can make a positive difference to clients. The ability to give clients focused attention means leaving the egocentric self behind. 1:24:20 In this age of technological competence and efficiency, the knowledge and skills embedded in caring practices are often overlooked. Technology does not negate caring ; in fact, the isolation that may accompany technology makes the significance of caring all the more important (Diener & Hobbs, 2012). Caring a dimension of human relating , and often referred to as The art of nursing Smith (2013) proposes that nursing cannot exist without caring. Caring is central to all helping professions , and enables people to create meaning in their lives Caring is sharing deep and genuine concern about the welfare of another person. CARING PRACTICE involves connection, mutual recognition , and involvement between nurse and client. Examples of caring, emerging from nursing situations : - A client experiencing postoperative pain is given medication to control her symptoms , and then the nurse talks quietly and holds her hand for a few minutes as the pain resolves. The nurse's presence , in itself, provides comfort for the client. - After the student nurse washes the hair of an older woman who is immobilized and applies her makeup , she helps the woman into a wheelchair to greet her daughter and grandchildren. The woman is extremely grateful and her sense of dignity is enhanced by this personal care. Just as clients benefit from caring practices, the nurses involved in these situations experience caring through knowing that CARING AS “HELPING THE OTHER GROW” Milton Mayeroff (1990), a noted philosopher, has proposed that to care for another person is to help him grow and actualize himself Caring is a process that develops over time, resulting in a deepening and transformation of the relationship. Recognizing the other as having potential and the need to grow, the caregiver does not impose direction, but allows the direction of the other person’s growth to help determine how to respond. Mayeroff (1990) defines major ingredients of caring that provide structure and further description of this process: 1. Knowing means understanding the other’s needs and how to respond to these needs; 2. Alternating rhythms signifies moving back and forth between intermediate and long-term meanings of behavior, considering the past; 3. Patience enables the other to grow in his own way and time; 4. Honesty includes awareness and openness to one’s own feelings and a genuineness in caring for the other. 5. Trust involves letting go, to allow the other grow in his own way and own time; 6. Humility means acknowledging that there is always more to learn, and that learning may come from any source; 7. Hope is belief in the possibilities of the other’s growth; 8. Courage is the sense of going into the unknown, informed by insight from past experiences. Mayeroff (1990) proposes that the caring process has benefits for the one giving care thru: ❖ Helping the other person grow, the caregiver moves toward self-actualization. ❖ Caring and being cared for, each person “find his place” in the world. ❖ Serving others through caring, individuals live the meaning of their own lives. BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 NURSING THEORIES ON CARING Caring is at the heart of nursing’s identity; indeed, the root of the word nursing means “nurturance” or “care” (Smith, 2013) Nurse scholars have reviewed literature, conducted research, and analyzed nurses’ experiences, resulting in the development of theories and models of caring. These theories and models are grounded in humanism and the idea that caring is the basis for human science. Each theory develops different aspects of caring, describing how caring is unique in nursing. Several nursing theorists focus in caring: ❖ Culture Care Diversity and Universality (Leininger) ❖ Theory of Bureaucratic Caring (Ray) ❖ Caring, the Human Mode of Being (Roach) ❖ Nursing as Caring (Boykin and Schoenhofer) ❖ Theory of Human Care (Watson) ❖ Theory of Caring (Swanson) 5. Care with commitment - The deliberate choice to act in accordance with one’s desires as well as obligations, resulting in investment of self in a task or cause. “Teamwork is the key to great outcomes for our patients.” 6. Care with Comportment - Appropriate bearing, demeanor, dress, and language that are in harmony with a caring presence. - Presenting oneself as someone who respects others and demands respect. ❖ Dress properly ❖ Good Behavior ❖ Follow policies and procedures ❖ If you have nothing good to say, don’t say it. RECLAIMING THE ART AND IMAGE OF NURSING: Participation in Healing Relationships NURSING AS A CALLING SISTER SIMON ROACH’S 6C’S IN A ‘NURSING SITUATION 1. Care with compassion - Awareness of one’s relationship to others, sharing their joys, sorrows, pain, and accomplishments, participation in the experience of another “Caring: Most Authentic Criterion of Humannage” 2. Care with Competence - Having the knowledge, judgment, skills, energy, experience and motivation required to respond adequately to the demands of one’s professional responsibilities.” “False knowledge can be more dangerous than ignorance” 3. Care with Confidence - Comfort with self, client, and others that allows one to build trusting relationships. 4. Care with Conscience - Morals, ethics, and an informed sense of right and wrong. Awareness of personal responsibility “Follow your value, Follow your heart” Pittman (1985) in her article “goodbye Florence,” stated that nurses’ struggle for status has ended the age of Florence Nightingale. Could it be what nurses need to gain status is to embrace the visionary genius of Florence nightingale? NURSING AS A CALLING NURSING AS A SCIENCE A SACRED TRUST It was Florence Nightingale who created the “art and science” model of professional nursing practice and entrusted it to future generations. It is up to the nurses of the 21st Century to ensure that the art of the nursing is not sacrificed at the altar of the gods of science and technology, fiscal restraint and bureaucracy..

Nursing complements medicine NURSING Medicine is disease oriented MEDICINE Nursing focuses on the Human response THE HEART OF NURSING The heart of nursing is the CARING presence and connectedness of the nurse, the nurse as healer, the integration of caring and healing and the exploration of the meaning that patients and families attach to sickness and death. Science is in awe of, and places great trust in its accomplishments. The heart of the nurse is in awe of the raw courage of the human spirit and stays to offer healing when science has failed. THE ART OF BEING The courage to stay when the limits of Science and technology have been reached. THE MUTUALITY OF CARING Jean Watson stated that when we include caring and love into our work, we discover that nursing is not just a job but a life-giving and life receiving career for a lifetime of growth and learning, Watson (2001) According to Hall "It is the experience of caring and the merhories of these experiences which lead to confidence, self-esteem and energy.....engagement with patients enriches, protects and empowers the healer," Hall (1997) ENGAGEMENT WITH PATIENTS ENRICHES, EMPOWERS AND PROTECTS THE HEALER CARING IS AN HONOR AND A PRIVILEGE NURSING Attention to full range of human responses to health & Illness Provision of Caring relationship that facilitates health & Healing “The nursing profession began with a genuine desire to serve and care for others, combined with a sense of compassion and commitment.” “Nurses stay by the side of those they serve through the worst times and celebrate with patients and families in the best times.” “There is an intimacy nurses and patients share which is understood.” “The essence of nursing is an unconditional love for mankind.” “To be called a nurse is an honor, a profession of the highest realm.” MAINTAINING CARE AND PRACTICE Caring for Self The concept of caring for self seems almost foreign to many nurses and students of nursing because of the professional emphasis on meeting others’ needs. Don’t forget your own needs Nurses take on multiple commitments to family, work, school, and community, they risk exhaustion, burnout, and stress Obstacles to self-care may be professional, related to the demands of a particular work setting or may be personal, such as a poor health habits or unrealistic expectations of self. Despite these challenges, it is imperative that nurses attend to their own needs, because caring for self is central to caring for others. BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 According to Mayeroff (1990) describes Caring for self as helping oneself grow and actualize one’s possibilities Self-care, when defined as responding to one’s own needs to grow, is the opposite of the self-complacency that often accompanies egocentricity. Caring for self means taking the time to nurture oneself This involves initiating and maintaining behaviors that promote healthy living and well-being. Self-care focuses on care of the self in the deepest sense Self-awareness and self-esteem are intimately connected to self-care Each person is unique and possesses individual strengths and weaknesses. Self-care practices are intentionally created by the self and vigilantly maintained. This is a lifelong unfolding process, leading to wholeness that comes from and contributes to self-esteem. In its code of ethics, the American Holistic Nurses Association (2002), states that “the nurse has a responsibility to model health care behaviors. Holistic nurses strive to achieve harmony in their own lives and assist others striving to do the same.” Individuals with high self-esteem can critically problem solve and tackle obstacles more effectively, Self-care practices build self-esteem, leading to feelings of comfort and accomplishment TYPES OF SELF CARE Physical Social Mental Spiritual Emotional CARE FOR SELF: HEALTHY LIFESTYLE Nutrition Activity & Exercise Recreation BESEREL, CELESTIAL, CENIZA, E., POLIDO & VALLEDOR | N-13 NURSING THEORIES ON CARING CARING CARING indeed, the root of the word nursing means Caring is a dimension of human relating, and often referred to as the art of nursing. “nurturance” or “care” (Smith, 2013). These theories and models are grounded in Smith (2013) proposes that nursing cannot exist humanism and the idea that caring is the basis without caring. for human science. Caring is central to all helping professions, and enables people to create meaning in their lives. Caring is at the heart of nursing’s identity; Culture Care Diversity and Universality (Leininger) Caring is sharing deep and genuine concern Her theory of culture care diversity and universality is based on the assumption that about the welfare of another person nurses must understand different cultures in order to function effectively. CARING PRACTICE Theory of Bureaucratic Caring (Ray) Involves connection, mutual recognition, and involvement between nurse and client. Ray’s theory of bureaucratic caring focuses on caring in organizations (e.g., hospitals) as cultures. CARING AS “HELPING OTHER GROW” contextual Milton Mayeroff (1990) Proposed that, to care for another person is to help him grow and actualize himself. the relationship. Recognizing the other as having potential and of trust involves letting go, to allow the other to grow in his own way and own time; humility means acknowledging that there is always more to learn, and that learning may come from any source; hope is belief in the possibilities of the other’s growth; and courage is the sense of going into the unknown, informed by insight from past experiences.
