Nursing Today: A Time of Transformation Status of Nursing in the United StatesNational surveys of actively licensed nurses conducted approximately every 4 yearsConducted by federal government Latest: March 2012; data available in 2014 Comprehensive appraisal through National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses (NSSRN)Published by U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Division of NursingCopyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.2NumbersNurses are the largest group of health care providers in the United States. Three million held licenses in 2008.There was a 5.3% increase from 2004. Of those with licenses, 85% actively work in nursing.63% work full time.12% of full-time nurses hold two nursing positions.14% of part-time nurses hold two nursing positions.

Improvement from 2004, when 12.2% RNs constituted ethnic minoritiesThe percentage of minorities currently enrolled as students is increasing, at 26.8%.The percentage of RNs practicing in the United States who were educated in India or the Philippines is over-represented compared to general population.

Recruitment of foreign-educated RNs is a controversial strategy to expand the workforce in response to the nursing shortage.Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.7Employment Opportunities for NursesPractice in wide variety of settingsHospitals remain primary work site: 62.2%Ambulatory care: 10.5%Community health/public health: 7.8%Extended care and nursing homes: 5.3%Remainder: nursing organizations, schools of nursing, government agencies, insurance companiesCopyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.88Hospital-Based NursingNurses work in a variety of roles; most provide direct patient care.Clinical ladder programs allow nurses to progress upward through direct-care roles.Clinical nurse specialists (CNSs) are at the top of most clinical ladders. Nurse managers fulfill nonclinical roles.Assume 24-hour accountability for their units Flexible staffing has relaxed formerly rigid work schedules. Educational credentials of hospital RNs range from ADN to doctorate (PhD).

Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.9Community Health NursingCommunity health nursing is increasing as more nursing care is delivered outside hospitals. Work settings include public health or private agencies.Deliver care for chronic health problemsImprove overall community health through programs in prevention, nutrition, child care, health maintenanceThere has been tremendous increase in home health nursing services, with predictions that most future health care will take place in patients' homes.

Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.10Background

The changing demographics (the aging population) along with a place of service shift from inpatient to outpatient will require more nurses in the community to meet the population needs.

The current average age of the nursing workforce is 44.6 nationally and 54 years of age in the State of New Jersey

Unlike hospitals where 42% surveyed reported a nurse residency program, only 2.2% of home health care agencies reported that they offer this program

Home health care agencies will experience a deficient in trained staff to meet the needs of New Jersey residents during a time when the number of homebound patients is expected to increase by more than 50% (Pittman, Horton, Terry & Bass, 2014).

A lack of data to accurately project needs along with a lack of existing residency programs to benchmark from, have created an environment where the gap between what is known and what is needed is widening.

Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.14Employment Outlook in NursingNurses can expect employment opportunities to grow "much faster than average": around 22% through 2016. Home health care positions are expected to increase fastest. Several factors contribute: technological advances, increase in primary care, aging of nation's population, and increased percentage of medical procedures performed in outpatient settings. Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.15Nursing SalariesNurses' salaries vary widely according to:Practice settingLevel of education/preparationExperienceRegion of the countryMedian salary: $62,450Lowest 10%: less than $43,410In nursing care facilitiesHighest 10%: $92,240In employment services, general medical/surgical hospitals21% of RNs are members of unions or are covered by union contracts.

Home Health: "Opportunities in hospitals, traditionally the largest employers of nurses, will grow more slowly than those in community-based sectors. "Home health care positions are expected to increase the fastest of all. This is in response to the expanding elderly population's needs and the preference for and cost-effectiveness of home care. Furthermore, technological advances are making it possible to bring increasingly complex treatments into the home.

1945-1960: The Rise of Hospitals: Bureaucracy, Science, and Shortages

The Hill-Burton Act (1946) provided funds to construct hospitals.Rapid expansion of facilities resulted in an acute shortage of nurses.Result: "Team nursing" was introduced.Group of patients cared for by group of caregiversRemoved RN from bedsideResulted in efficient but fragmented careThe nursing shortage prompted the creation of associate degree in nursing (ADN) programs.

Nurses were called to act in conditions previously unimaginable and unaddressed. The ANA cited "unfamiliar and unusual conditions that may necessitate adaptations . . . to recognized standards of nursing practice."Nursing responded by increasing preparedness for natural and man-made disasters.Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.42Health Care Reform2010: Affordable Care Act (ACA) was signed by President Barack Obama.It provides implementation of health insurance coverage changes to improve access and affordability.

Knowledge: "technology of the mind; involves use of computer systems to transform information into knowledge and generate new knowledge; called "expert systems."Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.51Nursing ShortageOvertime, frequent imbalances in nursing supply lead to "nursing shortages."These are usually confined to hospitals and nursing homes. Internal causes: salary issues, long hours, increased responsibility for unlicensed workers, too little authority for RNsExternal causes: changes in demand for nurses, increasing age of population and of nurses, alternative career options for womenThe key factor is the shortage of nursing faculty.Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.52Initiatives to Provide a Stable Supply of RNSFour major initiativesAmerican Recovery and Reinvestment Act, 2009To stimulate U.S. economy, with provision for $500 million to strengthen U.S. health care work forceRobert Wood Johnson FoundationHas committed tens of millions of dollars to create regional workforce development systems in health careJohnson & Johnson Campaign for Nursing's FutureIn partnership with National Student Nurses Association (NSNA), NLN, ANA, Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI) American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) Magnet Recognition ProgramTo attract and retain nurses in acute hospital settingsCopyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.53Question 1 Who published Notes on Nursing: What It Is and What It Is Not? 1. Clara Barton2. Florence Nightingale 3. Lillian Wald4. Nurse Ratched

Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.542. Florence Nightingale: Perhaps her most famous publication is the 1859 Notes on Nursing: What It Is and What It Is Not. In this document Nightingale stated clearly for the first time that mastering a unique body of knowledge was required of those wishing to practice professional nursing.Elsevier items and derived items 2009, 2005, 2001 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.54Clara Barton established the Red Cross. Lillian Wald began the Henry Street Settlement and public health nursing. And Nurse Ratched is a fictional character and one of the most damaging images of nursing, portrayed as a cold, sadistic, and controlling psychiatric nurse. Question 2Before Florence Nightingale, men provided most of the nursing care.True FalseCopyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.551. True: Men are not new to the profession of nursing. During the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth centuries in Europe they supplied much of the nursing care, often within the authority of military or religious orders. Florence Nightingale worked hard to establish nursing as a worthy career for respectable women, largely ignoring the historical contributions of men. The male role as she saw it was confined to supplying physical strength, such as lifting, moving, or controlling patients, when needed.

Copyright 2014, 2011, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1993 by Saunders, an imprint of Elsevier Inc.563. Knowledge: The word "technology" seems to be everywhere today and has a place in many domains in health care. For purposes of this basic introduction, four types of technological developments will be discussed: genetic, biomedical, information, and knowledge.
