Nursing is, by definition, a profession of caring. Your nursing practice must follow Scope and Standards that range from competent clinical knowledge to navigating complex healthcare systems. You advocate for your patients and colleagues, innovate solutions when systems fail, and serve as leaders throughout your career.

The Nursing Scope and Standards of Practice (4th Edition) act as the guide for you in your professional capacity as a nurse, from the bedside to the C-suite. Nurses like you may find it challenging to integrate the who, what, where, when, why, and how of professional nursing practice every day. This online course, developed by members of the Scope and Standards 4th Edition Workgroup, provides you with the context and opportunities to reflect so you can:

Define nursing
Understand the scope of your practice to support your autonomy to practice at the full extent of your license
Describe how to incorporate the Scope and Standards of Nursing at each level of nursing
Explain how the profession of nursing integrates both art and science as a core foundation into its practice
Identify ways to overcome the barriers of implementing the Scope and Standards into your daily practice
Discover ways you can impact the future of nursing

Nurses at all stages of their education and careers, from the newly licensed RN to DNP, will benefit from this course.
