The Nursing Process As a Strategy for a (De-)Professionalization in Nursing a Critical Analysis of the Transformation of Nursing in Germany in the 1970S and 1980S The Nursing Process as a Strategy for a (De-)Professionalization in Nursing A Critical Analysis of the Transformation of Nursing in Germany in the 1970s and 1980s Jette Lange Thesis submitted to the University of Ottawa in partial Fulfillment of the requirements for the PhD degree in Nursing Sciences. School of Nursing Faculty of Health Sciences University of Ottawa © Jette Lange, Ottawa, Canada, 2020 Abstract In this study, I analyze a discourse that emerged during the 1970s and 1980s in German nursing. At that time, the German healthcare system underwent dramatic changes and economic reorganization, which can be understood as the emergence of the neoliberal rationale in Germany. The argument of cost explosion was used to restructure hospitals into enterprises that were to operate based on the logic of the market. At the same time, the nursing process was introduced into German nursing. The nursing process is a cybernetic, problem-solving cycle containing distinct steps of assessing the patient, planning nursing goals, executing and documenting nursing interventions, and evaluating performance. German nurses valued the nursing process as a central component of the professionalization of the nursing vocation. However, in neoliberalism, professions are seen as obstacles to free competition in marketized areas, and thus strategies such as accounting mechanisms were implemented to decrease their power. Using the historical approach of the history of the present, the perspective of governmentality and insights from critical accounting, this study analyzes the impact of the nursing process on the German nursing vocation. The nursing process needs to be understood as an accounting tool and hence, as a component of neoliberal strategies to make formerly intangible fields of work like nursing service calculable. As an accounting tool, the nursing process does not represent reality in a neutral manner but affects the areas to which it is applied in a constitutive way. As this study shows, the implementation of the nursing process led to reconstituting the nursing vocation into a calculable entity. And while German nurses valued the potential that the call for increased accountability and transparency in nursing care held for their ii professionalization, the findings suggest that a newly constituted accountable nursing vocation can instead be considered as de-professionalizing. iii Content Abstract

    Downloaded by [New York University] at 03:18 04 October 2016 Nurses and Midwives in Nazi Germany This book is about the ethics of nursing and midwifery, and how these were abrogated during the Nazi era. Nurses and midwives actively killed their patients, many of whom were disabled children and infants and patients with mental (and other) illnesses or intellectual disabilities. The book gives the facts as well as theoretical perspectives as a lens through which these crimes can be viewed. It also provides a way to teach this history to nursing and midwifery students, and, for the first time, explains the role of one of the world’s most historically prominent midwifery leaders in the Nazi crimes.

In Germany, over a 22 year period, significant savings were achieved by decreases in: (1) hospital beds by À29.3% saving 119 000 beds, (2) patient care and treatment days by À23% saving 43.1 million patient days, and (3) length of hospital stay in days by À39% sav- ing 4.7 days. This occurred together with the parallel increase of treated patient cases by +26.5% with an addi- tional burden of 4.1 million patients. Since 2010, as birth rates increase again treatment cases will also increase. In parallel, the percentage of total nurses has decreased (À2.1%) as well as that of registered nurses in hospitals between 1999 (325 539) and 2009 (324 337) have decreased (À0.4%), in conjunction with nurses employed in preventive and rehabilitation facilities (+15.1%) and/or in outpatient care facilities (+41.1%) and/or nursing homes (+24.8%) and/or nurses working in retirement homes (+77.9%).

  • Clinical Case Management Practice
    chapter 2 CliniCal Case ManageMent PraCtiCe “I think one’s feelings waste themselves in words; they ought all to be distilled into actions which bring results.” —Florence Nightingale Case managers focus on care coordination, financial management, and resource utilization to yield cost-effective outcomes that are patient-centric, safe, and provided in the least restrictive setting. When case management is practiced in this manner, costs are contained and patients, families, and stakeholders are viewed as essential members of the team. Case management is a fluid and dynamic practice that is most effective when it changes and adapts with the challenges of the healthcare system. Stewardship of the healthcare dollars, safe transitions of care, evaluating patient adherence, and consistent stakeholder communication are critical interventions that case managers employ, while maintaining a primary and consistent focus on quality of care and patient self-determination. 22 NursiNg Case MaNageMeNt review aNd resourCe MaNual, 4th editioN Case management is not a new concept. It traces its history back to the early 1900s, when it simply functioned as a means of providing care and containing healthcare costs. In the 1920s, the practice found its roots in the fields of psychiatry and social work, and focused on long- term chronic illnesses that were managed within the community. Case management processes were also used by visiting and public health nurses in the 1930s, when making house calls was a common practice. Throughout the next 50 years, case management remained essentially in the community. The mid-1980s saw the introduction of prospective payment system (PPS) case management, which became widespread within the acute and post-acute settings (Cesta, Tahan, & Fink, 2002).

  • Why Do Nurses Need Philosophy?
    International Journal of Sciences: Basic and Applied Research (IJSBAR) ISSN 2307-4531 (Print & Online) http://gssrr.org/index.php?journal=JournalOfBasicAndApplied -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why do nurses need philosophy? Dewi Prabawati* Sint Carolus School of Health Sciences, Jakarta, Indonesia Email: [email protected] Abstract The nature of philosophy gives a significant influence on the way nurse examines the phenomena which happen on the field. Together with nursing ethics, it is needed for nursing practice, as the basic elements of rights, giving value and the nature to perform good nursing practice. Philosophy and science can’t be separated because they give mutual benefits each other; where science requires philosophy to connect its findings for human knowledge and philosophy can act as a language connecting disciplines. Philosophy will increase nurses’ ability to understand the phenomena and this will provide nurses with a way to think about their practice. Caring is expected to be a spirit of nursing, and through caring, nurse can provide a safe and compassionate nursing care. For nurse educator, caring is a soul of nursing that will help the students cope or make adaptation with the stressor, thus will increase their motivation to study nursing. Keywords: Philosophy; nursing practice; science; caring. 1. Introduction Nursing is a discipline embedding science and art. As science, nursing has the body of knowledge that serves as rational for nursing practice; and as an art, nursing embodies effort to express the creativity in providing nursing care. Based on that definition, question that may arise is: why do nurses need philosophy? To answer this question and to know about the relationship, this paper attempts to provide the answers and it is believed that nurses need to understand the nature and the value of philosophy.

  • Telehealth/Telenursing for Registered Nurses 1
    Nursing Care Quality Assurance Commission PO BOX 47864 i Olympia Washington 98504-7864 Tel: 360-236-4725i Fax: 360-236-4738 Telehealth/Telenursing For Registered Nurses 1. Telephone triage and nursing consultation by telephone or other electronic technology, incorporates unique knowledge, skill and competencies. Nurses employ the full range of the nursing process to gather data, make assessments, and generate plans for care via telephone encounters with patients. 2. Protocols are appropriate tools for implementing treatment plans. A registered nurse may use a protocol that has been written and approved by a physician to initiate a standing order for a medication or treatment. Assuming an appropriate patient-prescriber relationship exists, authorized standing orders may be implemented without consulting an authorized prescriber for a particular patient. The registered nurse should implement only standing orders which include a target population, exclusions, the population served, contraindications, special considerations, a specific order, a description of who has the authority to implement the order, physician signature, and review and approval by nursing as well as other involved disciplines. 3. Practice guidelines and protocols for care should be developed based on scientific/empirical evidence and outcomes data or expert opinion. Methods for periodic review of these tools to evaluate care effectiveness and currency of information should be in place. 4. Practice guidelines should evolve through collaboration and professional consensus among all involved health care disciplines. 5. When functions of the nurse involve complex decision making, even when driven by algorithm and protocol, telenursing should be limited to the practice of registered nursing. Licensed practical nursing activities within this context may include information gathering and the provision of patient education.
