Nurses may be differentiated from other health care providers by their approach to patient care, training, and scope of practice. Nurses practice in a wide diversity of practice areas with a different scope of practice and level of prescriber authority in each. Many nurses provide care within the ordering scope of physicians, and this traditional role has come to shape the historic public image of nurses as care providers. However, nurses are permitted by most jurisdictions to practice independently in a variety of settings depending on training level. In the postwar period, nurse education has undergone a process of diversification towards advanced and specialized credentials, and many of the traditional regulations and provider roles are changing. Nurses develop a plan of care, working collaboratively with physicians, therapists, the patient, the patient's family and other team members, that focuses on treating illness to improve quality of life. In the U.S. (and increasingly the United Kingdom), advanced practice nurses, such as clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners, diagnose health problems and prescribe medications and other therapies, depending on individual state regulations.

Tracy Arizona State University, Tempe Pamela Lutgen-Sandvik University of New Mexico, Albuquerque Jess K. Alberts Arizona State University, Tempe Although considerable research has linked workplace bullying with psy- chosocial and physical costs, the stories and conceptualizations of mistreat- ment by those targeted are largely untold. This study uses metaphor analysis to articulate and explore the emotional pain of workplace bullying and, in doing so, helps to translate its devastation and encourage change. Based on qualitative data gathered from focus groups, narrative interviews and target drawings, the analysis describes how bullying can feel like a battle, water tor- ture, nightmare, or noxious substance. Abused workers frame bullies as nar- cissistic dictators, two-faced actors, and devil figures. Employees targeted with workplace bullying liken themselves to vulnerable children, slaves, pris- oners, animals, and heartbroken lovers. These metaphors highlight and delimit possibilities for agency and action. Furthermore, they may serve as diagnostic cues, providing shorthand necessary for early intervention. Keywords: workplace bullying; emotion; metaphor analysis; work feelings; harassment So many people have told me, “Oh, just let it go. Just let it go.” What’s inter- esting is people really don’t understand or comprehend the depths of the bully’s evilness until it’s done to them. Then they’re shocked.

Sandy Hershcovis University of Calgary 2500 University Drive NW Calgary, AB T2N 1N4 [email protected] Kathryn B.H. Clancy University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign 607 S.

BIOBEHAVIORAL RESPONSE TO INCIVILITY 1 Abstract This article builds a broad theory to explain how people respond, both biologically and behaviorally, when targeted with incivility in organizations. Central to our theorizing is a multifaceted framework that yields four quadrants of target response: reciprocation, retreat, relationship repair, and recruitment of support. We advance the novel argument that these behaviors not only stem from biological change within the body, but also stimulate such change. Behavioral responses that revolve around affiliation, and produce positive social connections, are most likely to bring biological benefits. However, social and cultural features of an organization can stand in the way of affiliation, especially for employees holding marginalized identities.

  • Understanding Civility/Incivility
    Confidential Impartial Informal Independent UNDERSTANDING CIVILITY/INCIVILITY “Civility’s defining characteristic is its ties to city and society. The word derives from the latin civitas, which means “city,” especially in the sense of civic community. Civitas is the same word from which civilization comes. The age-old assumption behind civility is that life in the city has a civilizing effect…Although we can describe civil as courteous, polite, and well mannered, etymology reminds us that they are also supposed to be good citizens and good neighbors.” “Choosing Civility” by P.M. Forni A civil environment produces: 1. Collaborations 2. Ideas – innovation & creativity 3. Customer satisfaction 4. Retention 5. Supportive learning environment 6.
