NVT TASK 724.7.1-02-04, 7.2-06-08, 7.4-01-08 The First person I interviewed was a nurse practitioner I work under in a community based program for clients with psychiatric disorders. She answered the first question and explained that her educational background was an ADN nurse with a master’s in psychology. She also stated that she is co-leader of a team. In comparison to the second nurse I interviewed, a staff nurse working in the hospital who is also a recent graduate from a BSN program. She answered the question differently she answers the question as being a role model for nursing and patients by being an advocate for nursing.
In this paper I will apply the Ida Jean Orlando’s Nursing Deliberate Nursing Process Theory to patient boarding in the Emergency Department (ED), a current issue at the facility I am employed. Orlando's Deliberate Nursing Process Theory emphasizes the shared relationship between patient and nurse. It describes the responsibility of the nurse is to find out and meet the patient's immediate needs for assistance. Nurses have to use their discernment, thoughts about perception, and the feelings produced from their ideas to explore the meaning of the patient's behavior. This method assist the nurse in discovery out the root of the patient's suffering and offer the aid they require.
Fairman’s Work In “The Visit: Nurse Practitioners and the Negotiation of Practice”, Julie A. Fairman (2011) illustrates how nurse practitioners have negotiated over time, using various methods, to collaborate and make a place for themselves in primary health care settings. She frames her discussion in the space of “the visit”. The visit serves as the context of “provider-patient interaction” (p. 190). It is defined not only by the environment in which providers and patient interact, but also the external factors that influence such interaction. Fairman (2011) claims that she used the visit as the unit of analysis because it is known to be “flexible” and exemplifies “how nurses’ clinical practice changes over time and location” (p. 190).
Her care is not directly with the patient, but her job effects the patient directly. As stated by the infection control nurse, she deals with preventing hospital acquired infections by making sure all staff members follow the policies. When giving direct patient care, the staff nurse states she does this by having open and clear communication, listening and exceeding patient expectations. Each nurse has different experiences with the roles of other nurses. For example, the staff nurse and administration nurse states that the CNS is aware of populations with Interviews NVT2 Task #2 3
A Comparison of the Professional Roles of Nurses In this paper, the nurse’s unique role in providing inter-professional care, patient care quality and safety, cost effective healthcare, and care to diverse patient populations will be investigated. A Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA), J.W. and a Nurse Educator, M.,H., were interviewed, their roles as nurses were analyzed using provided protocol to discuss the difference between research and quality improvement, also how informatics affect the quality of patient care. The two specialties based on the individual interviews will be compared and a copy of both interviews will be incorporated into the paper. Lastly, a reflection of findings will be discussed as to how nurses could contribute the information from the two interviews into their own professional growth and development.
Client Advocacy Zhanxinyang Client Advocacy Zhanxin Yang Advocacy is defined as the act of speaking for another or acting in their best interests. In a nursing field, advocacy means that the nurse acts for and on behalf of the client. To be an advocate for a client the nurse must ensure that the client is provided with adequate and accurate information relating to his care. The nurse must support the client in any informed decisions he makes about his care. In this way the nurse meets the ethical requirement of honoring a client’s right to self-determination (Funnel, Koutoukidis, & Lawrence, 2009).
These core concepts lead nurses to actions that guide their practice. Nurses incorporate these concepts as they review, formulate, and deliver nursing care (Brilowski & Wendler, 2005). Nursing is a common core concept of nursing theories. Comparing and analyzing the definition of the concept of nursing among theories helps to distinguish the differences between them. It is also important to know where and how theories can best apply to current nursing practice.
The patient is an individual with a need, and nursing is an interpersonal and therapeutic process. This nurse-patient relationship is influenced by both the nurse’s and the patient’s perceptions and preconceived ideas” (p. 44). The key takeaways that struck me are the emphasis on patient-centered care, the therapeutic aspect of the nursing process and the relationship between nurse, client and family. As we have learned in other classes, these are critical components of today’s nursing practice. In Peplau’s theory, the elements of the nursing metaparadigm (i.e.
As such it enables health practitioners of all varieties to address healthcare questions with an evaluative and qualitative approach. EBP allows the practitioner to assess current and past research, clinical guidelines, and other information resources in order to identify relevant literature while differentiating between high-quality and low-quality findings (EBP Website) .

At the core of nursing is the therapeutic nurse-client relationship.
The Therapeutic Relationship A therapeutic relationship is a relationship which focuses on a client’s needs and is goal specific, theory-based and open to supervision as stated by Fletcher and Fontaine (1995). It can often be referred to as the nurse-client relationship. They also state that within the therapeutic relationship there is a ‘conscious process of working together toward mutually established goals’ and that this is referred to as a therapeutic alliance. Stein-Parbury (2005) mentions that there is a ‘common distinction’ between therapeutic relationships and social relationships, and that the professional relationship is ‘goal directed’. From this we can understand that therapeutic relationships are professional relationships rather than friendships and their sole purpose is to exist until that goal has been achieved.
