Selected AbstractsThe power of partnership to shape the future of nursing: the evolution of the clinical nurse leaderJOURNAL OF NURSING MANAGEMENT, Issue 5 2008FAAN, FACHE, JOLENE TORNABENI MA Aim(s), This article describes the evolution of the clinical nurse leader role and demonstrates the vital nature of partnerships between academia and practice in the design and implementation of this new role. Background, The health care system as it exists in the United States may put patients at risk in terms of safety and quality of care. Nursing leadership from across the US recognized a need for nursing practice and academia to work in partnership to develop workable and effective solutions. The vision was of a nurse generalist who would be prepared to address the complexities that make the current systems dysfunctional. Evaluation, Review, share experiences and discuss the benefits of engaging stakeholders with broad and diverse viewpoints. Key issues, Engaging a group of stakeholders with diverse backgrounds, varied world views and experiences for the purpose of developing common mutually beneficial goals, creates synergy and greater commitment to the goals, which results in success. Conclusion(s), The power of partnership in the development and implementation of the CNL is evident. Old ways of trying to ,go it alone' are no longer viable in a complex health care environment. Implications for nursing management, With continued collaboration, practice and academia can continue to confront challenges and develop effective solutions.

[source] Re-creating ,Dutchness': cultural colonisation in post-war HollandNATIONS AND NATIONALISM, Issue 4 2004Rob Van Ginkel Following the liberation of the Netherlands from German occupation in 1945, many Dutch intellectuals were seriously concerned about the moral comportment of the Dutch in particular its youth. In their view, the war led to a sapping of norms, values and virtues they deemed ,typically Dutch' which could bring about complete social disintegration. Therefore, they launched campaigns to reinstate the ,old ways'. Based on what they believed to be the nation's authentic folk culture and character, they attempted to culturally colonise the Dutch. This article describes and analyses various forms of this institutional cultural nationalism in the second part of the 1940s. [source] | ||||||||||
