The American Nurses Association's (ANA, 2021) Nursing: Scope and
Standards of Practice defines the scope of nursing practice and
outlines 18 standards of nursing practice.
The six standards of practice describe a competent level of nursing care as
demonstrated by the critical thinking model known as the nursing process.
The 12 standards of professional performance describe behaviors
expected of all registered nurses.
A registered nurse working who has a BSN and works in a cardiac
intensive care in the state of Montana.
All registered nurses, including advanced practice nurses, are part of
the “who” in nursing. Each has been educated, titled, and maintains an
active license to practice nursing.
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 to peaceful death) that the person would perform unaided given the
necessary strength, will, or knowledge.
Virginia Henderson’s (1978) definition of nursing provides a concise
description of the “what” of nursing.
A registered nurse is caring for clients in an urgent care clinic in Texas.
Nursing occurs in any environment “where” there is a healthcare
consumer (client) in need of care, information, or advocacy.
A registered nurse cares for clients on weekends, holidays, and in the
middle of the night.
Nursing occurs “when” there is a need for nursing knowledge, wisdom,
caring, leadership, practice, or education… anytime, anywhere.
A registered nurse understands that medicine and the needs of society
change frequently, and they will be lifelong learners to improve outcomes.
