NR 393 Week 6 Discussion: Reflection on 19th and 20th
Century Nursing (With Responses)
Week 6 Discussion Topic NR 393
The mid- to late 20th century was filled with amazing changes and events in professional nursing. Select
one of these changes or events, describe it, and explain how that change or event has impacted quality
of nursing practice today.
It interested me that the creation of the Magnet Recognition Program was in the 1980’s and they first
started to designate hospitals by 1994 (Chamberlain Lesson Week 6). Being recognized by Magnet is a
prestigious recognition, considering the amount of time and effort it takes these days to prepare the
documents and submit the application. According to the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC),
the Magnet Recognition Program “designates organizations worldwide where nursing leaders
successfully align their nursing strategic goals to improve the organization’s patient outcomes” (ANCC,
2019). My facility just received Magnet Recognition for the fourth time, and during this journey, we
prepared to present to the committee who rounded our floors with our documentation of progress with
HCAPS, CLABSI, CAUTI, and satisfaction rating as we embellished on our nursing code of practice/patient-
centered care model. Margaret D. Sovie initiated this practice by publishing her study study of American
Academy of Nursing: Defined 14 Forces of Magnetism; this set the change that blossomed in the 1980’s
ultimately created the guidelines for many hospitals today (Judd & Sitzman, pg. 255). Magnet introduced
the outreach for nurses to acquire their BSN in the hospital setting and promote continuing education as
necessities for promoting the proper care for patients today. With the requirements currently set for
Magnet, the ANCC states that CNOs should have a minimum of a master’s degree, nurse managers
should have a baccalaureate or graduate degree and nursing leaders should have a baccalaureate or
graduate degree during the time of application (ANCC, 2019). With these regulations, the promotion of
all nurses within the facility to continue education for higher degrees will continue into regular standards
for every hospital facility.
