Navigating Nursing's Future

By Johnson Sue

This book describes healthcare as a complex landscape that nurses must navigate to reach a future where everyone can achieve optimum health. A historic perspective shows how healthcare evolved from the 1700s to today, and how nurses began their journey to current practice. Patient care has changed over the years; nursing theories and care models still exist, but there is an opportunity to develop new models to benefit patients, families, and themselves. Technology advances at an unprecedented pace. Health equity must be plotted, where nurses address the upstream causes of illness along with racism and bias - both explicit and implicit. The pandemic created opportunities and challenges for nurse about misinformation and emergency preparedness. Quality cannot be segmented, and advocacy must be mapped into nurses' journey. Nursing education must change for both students and faculty, and it is time for nurses to take the helm of leadership in healthcare and beyond.
