Assignment: Regulation for Nursing Practice Staff Development Meeting NURS 6050

Assignment: Regulation for Nursing Practice Staff Development Meeting NURS 6050

Both and national nursing associations have significant impacts on the nurse practitioner profession and scope of practice. Understanding these

differences helps lend credence to your expertise as a professional. In this Assignment, you will practice the application of such expertise by communicating a comparison of boards of nursing and professional nurse associations. You will also share an analysis of your state board of nursing.

Nursing is a highly regulated field. Throughout the United States and its territories, there are over 100 nursing boards and national nursing organizations. Their existence contributes to the regulation, education, and promotion of the nursing profession. With such numbers, it can be difficult to differentiate between BONs and nursing associations, let alone analyze the numerous benefits and alternatives offered by each.

To Prepare:

Assume that you are leading a meeting on regulation for nursing practice at your healthcare organization or agency.
Review the NCSBN and ANA websites to prepare for your presentation.
The Assignment: (8- to 9-slide PowerPoint presentation)

Develop a 8- to 9-slide PowerPoint Presentation that addresses the following:

Describe the differences between a board of nursing and a professional nurse association.
Describe the board for your specific region/area.
Who is on the board?
How does one become a member of the board?
Describe at least one state regulation related to general nurse scope of practice.
How does this regulation influence the nurse’s role?
How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?
Describe at least one state regulation related to Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs).
How does this regulation influence the nurse’s role?
How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?
