The Image of Nursing

Question: Describe about the The Image of Nursing? Answer: Image Of Nursing: Nursing is a practice of giving care to the sick or unwell persons. The purpose of this journal article is to consider the image of nursing as recognized by the nurse. In this practice the image of nurse has a vital role. The responsibilities of a nurse are to promote nursing, to persist in nursing, to maintain the decision in nursing. There are no studies are done for the nurse by which they can recognize the role of profession (Emeghebo, 2012). A study was done by collecting data from the nurses. Some of them have more than 21 years experiences and they are registered nurse. The final year student nurses are also involved in the study. All the nurses are gone through the interviews for the experiment. The qualitative data and expressive investigative data were gathered from the nurses and examined. There are three wide categories which signify the profession of nurse. Those are nursing knowledge, role of nurse and attitude of nurse. Considering the role and the knowledge of nursing there has a positive image on nursing. The professional image of nursing is influenced by the attitude of nurses. Sometimes work environment or communication with others in health care profession influences the nurses and they are gathered some negative realizations as they passes through their career ('Reflections on the image of nursing', 2015). There are different perceptions for different nurses. Senior nurses have bad perceptions of junior n urses. The image of nurse is not same for every person. It is noticed that the nurses who are working in hospitals have the bad perceptions of the practice of nursing and also nurses who are working in maternal child health care, have the good perceptions for the practice of nursing ('nursing: towards 2015', 2015).

The aim of this journal article is to consider the image of nursing on the nurse and the image of nursing carried by the general people and also the effect of it on nursing recruitment. The recruitment of nurse and the reservation of nurse is very vital part. It is very important to the Strategic Health Authority for London (NHS London). The Strategic Health Authority for London (NHS London) is worked on the image of nursing and the image of nurse is investigated by the Strategic Health Authority for London (NHS London ('EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FORCE 12: IMAGE OF NURSING', 2015). For this investigation a survey was done and qualitative data was used. The general people and nurses are participated for this investigation and they are helped to collect data. The whole method of experiment is done by collecting qualitative data. Three themes are appeared from the survey and they are connected to the nursing image which is carried by the nurses. Three themes are fulfillment, diversity and privilege. Three themes are not displayed by the public image of nursing. The public are not aware about the activity or the role of nurse and they are not even respect the image of nurse. General people are not offering the profession of nursing as a career of choice to their child or beloved one. By the use of quiz or form or questionnaires this profession can enhance the possibilities and advantages of the image of nursing. It is noticed that the image of general people about nursing is good but there are so many negative feedbacks about the profession of nursing (MORRIS-THOMPSON, SHEPHERD, PLATA MARKS-MARAN, 2011). So the image of nursing should be changed by a positive approach. The image of nurse and the image of general people are not same. The public image about the nurse is based on the misconceptions, myth and ste reotype. This study is done to change the view of the nursing image. It is a good approach for a nursing profession and by this experiment they want to alert and give some knowledge about the service of a nurse. The main approach of the study is to develop the recruitment plan which will change the image of nursing. References: Emeghebo, L. (2012).
