Engaging in the Professional Practice (PR) process is an important avenue to advocate for safe patient, resident, and client care, and promote positive changes in your workplace. The most important resource in this entire process is you.
Nursing Standards of Practice
The PR process focuses on practice problems related to Nursing Standards of Practice and intends to solve practice issues collaboratively at the local level. Themes that can be addressed under the PR process include: policies and procedures, education and training, leadership support, orientation, scope of practice, skill mix, role clarity, communication, and mentorship.
Professional Responsibility (PR) Process
The PR process is collaborative and adheres to the jointly developed guiding principles.
It begins with a conversation with your excluded manager.
