Nurse leaders as managers of ethically sustainable caring cultures. (Journal of Advanced Nursing, 2017, 73(4) p. 871-882)

The aim of this study was to identify the distinctive foundations of the care culture and how nurse leaders ( NL) can manage and strengthen these in a quest for ethically sustainable caring cultures. Conclusion The basis of good care, patient safety and sustainability is comprised of ethics with a respectful and dignified care that is evidence-based and economically stable. Through their management NLs have a responsibility to nurture and protect the core of caring and create contextual, professional and cultural prerequisites to maintain the core and art of caring as well as care staff’s ethical and professional competence.

The experience of people with dementia and nurses in hospital: an integrative review. (Journal of Clinical Nursing, 2017, 26(9) p. 1152-1171)

Aims and objectives: To identify and examine existing research exploring how people with dementia and nurses view acute hospital care. Results: of study: Hospitals focus on acute medical care; consequently people with dementia are considered low priority and a disruption to normal routine. Risk management often takes priority over patient dignity. People with dementia are stigmatised. Families have significant roles to play in the care of a person with dementia in hospital but are often excluded. Nurses struggle to complete even basic patient care, and focus on tasks often at the expense of specific patient needs. Support for nurses is lacking. The job satisfaction of nurses caring for people with dementia is poor. Conclusions Nurses require improved education and support to care for patients with dementia. Hospitals must focus on genuine caring concurrently with rapid discharge requirements, risk mitigation and fiscal restraint.

‘Nursing research culture’ in the context of clinical nursing practice: addressing a conceptual problem. (Journal of Advanced Nursing, 2017, vol. 73(5) p. 1066-1074)

This research aims to report an analysis of the concept of nursing research culture in the context of clinical nursing practice. Results of the concept analysis identified five defining attributes of nursing research culture in the context of clinical nursing practice: strong monodisciplinary nursing professionalism, academic thinking and socialization, research use as a part of daily nursing practice, acceptance by colleagues and management and facilitation of resources from management and organization. Conclusion Although the method of concept analysis has been criticized and heavily debated, the development of nursing research cultures based on the defining attributes and antecedents of the concept will be important to emphasize evidence-based clinical nursing care.

Nursing Leadership Influence on Evidence-Based Practice Culture and Integration (Lenhart, N.K., 2017. Nursing Leadership Influence on Evidence-Based Practice Culture and Integration (Doctoral dissertation, Walden University).

Translating research to practice takes 10-20 years or more and evidence-based
practice (EBP) integration remains at 10%-20%, despite recommendations requiring EBP-
guided decisions. EBP integration has been associated with up to 30% decreases in
healthcare system spending, improved quality outcomes, and increased staff satisfaction. Nurse leaders are accountable for EBP enculturation, yet rate quality and safety as the highest priority and EBP as the lowest. This knowledge gap perpetuates low EBP integration rates and hinders EBP enculturation.
