Leadership Roles and Management Functions in Nursing: Theory and Application, 11th Edition Carol J. Huston, RN, MSN, DPA, FAAN

In 2015, ANA published six Standards of Practice for Nursing Administration as well as eleven Standards of Professional Performance. These standards describe a competent level of nursing practice and professional performance common to all registered nurses (Table 4). Because the Standards of Practice for nursing administration describe the nursing process and thus cross all aspects of nursing care, only the Standards of Professional Performance have been included in the crosswalk of this book (Table 4). TABLE 4 AMERICAN NURSES ASSOCIATION NURSING ADMINISTRATION STANDARDS OF PROFESSIONAL PERFORMANCE Standard 7. Ethics • The registered nurse practices ethically. Standard 8. Culturally congruent practice • The registered nurse practices in a manner that is congruent with cultural 20 diversity and inclusion principles. Standard 9. Communication • The registered nurse communicates effectively in all areas of practice. Standard 10. Collaboration • The registered nurse collaborates with health-care consumers and other key stakeholders in the conduct of nursing practice. Standard 11. Leadership • The registered nurse leads within the professional practice setting and the profession. Standard 12. Education • The registered nurse seeks knowledge and competence that reflects current nursing practice and promotes futuristic thinking. Standard 13. Evidence-based practice and research • The registered nurse integrates evidence and research findings into practice. Standard 14. Quality of practice • The registered nurse contributes to quality nursing practice. Standard 15. Professional practice evaluation • The registered nurse evaluates one’s own and others’ nursing practice. Standard 16. Resource utilization • The registered nurse utilizes appropriate resources to plan, provide, and sustain evidence-based nursing services that are safe, effective, and fiscally responsible. Standard 17. Environmental health • The registered nurse practices in an environmentally safe and healthy manner. The Quality and Safety Education for Nurses Competencies Using the Institute of Medicine (2003) competencies for nursing, the QSEN Institute (2014; Cronenwett, 2007) defined six prelicensure and graduate quality and safety competencies for nursing (Table 5) and proposed targets for the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to be developed in nursing programs for each of these competencies. Led by a national advisory board and distinguished faculty, QSEN pursues strategies to develop effective teaching approaches to assure that future graduates develop competencies in patientcentered care, teamwork and collaboration, evidence-based practice, quality improvement, safety, and informatics. TABLE 5 QUALITY AND SAFETY EDUCATION FOR NURSES COMPETENCIES Patient-centered care • Definition: Recognize the patient or designee as the source of control and full partner in providing compassionate and coordinated care based on respect for patient’s preferences, values, and needs. Teamwork and collaboration • Definition: Function effectively within nursing and interprofessional teams, fostering open communication, mutual respect, and shared decision making to achieve quality patient care. Evidence-based practice • Definition: Integrate best current evidence with clinical expertise and patient/family preferences and values for delivery of optimal health care. Quality improvement • Definition: Use data to monitor the outcomes of care processes and use improvement methods to design and test changes to continuously improve the quality and safety of health-care systems. 21 Safety • Definition: Minimizes the risk of harm to patients and providers through both system effectiveness and individual performance. Informatics • Definition: Use information and technology to communicate, manage knowledge, mitigate error, and support decision making.
