Nursing role and scope week 6
Several factors facilitate the development of professional roles in nursing such as continuing education opportunities which provide nurses with access to up-to-date knowledge on evidence-based practices. Furthermore, networking plays an important role since it allows nurses to collaborate with their peers in order to exchange best practices or share new ideas about how our profession can continue evolving. Finally, increased visibility through social media platforms has been instrumental in allowing more people outside the field understand what it means to be a nurse and why we do what we do—which has served as confirmation that nurses really do make a difference.
