Prompt

Considering your personal beliefs and professional experiences, examine the values of nursing identified in the AACN Essentials (2021). This will be a valuable step toward starting development of your personal philosophy of nursing.

Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:

1.     Value Statements: Determine how the nursing values manifest in your professional nursing practice. Take time to consider each of the nursing values and how they contribute to your professional identity. What do each of these mean to you? For every value, write a unique value statement that explains the importance of the value to your professional practice. Note that each statement should be no more than a sentence long. Examples of value statements from different organizations, both in healthcare and otherwise, are provided below to prompt your thinking around the different ways a value statement can be constructed. Remember, these statements are individual and contextualized to the creator of the value statement.

o    Mayo Clinic and healing: “Inspire hope and nurture the well-being of the whole person, respecting physical, emotional and spiritual needs.” (Mayo Clinic Mission and Values, Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research)

o    Intel and risk taking: “Thinking differently and learning from failure” (25 Core Value Statements from Top Organizations, Laura Handrick)

o    Wegman’s and empowerment: “We empower our people to make decisions that improve their work and benefit our customers and our company.” (25 Core Value Statements from Top Organizations, Laura Handrick)

2.     Value Ranking: Determine which values are the most important guides to your decision making in your professional practice. Considering the value statements you have created, rank the list of values to determine which are used most and least frequently to guide your decision making.

 

  1. Advocacy
  2. Compassion
  3. Humanity
  4. Humility
  5. Integrity
  6. Social justice
  7. Autonomy
  8. Caring
  9. Courage
  10. Inclusivity
  11. Altruism

 

3.     Current Role: Identify daily actions you perform where these values manifest in your role. You should focus on the top three values (Advocacy, Compassion, Humanity) from your ranked list and then identify 2 to 5 actions for each. These can be presented in a bulleted list, though you may wish to add a brief explanation to clarify or elaborate on the work you complete.

4.     MSN Role: Explain how your views of nursing values in practice could change as you transition from a BSN to an MSN professional nurse. Ask yourself, what is a value that would carry over into your MSN role? It may be helpful to think about which of these values you bring with you wherever you go, even in your personal life. Your explanation only needs to be a few sentences long.

Guidelines for Submission

Your submission should be a 1-page Word document. Use 12-point Times New Roman font, double spacing, and one-inch margins. Sources should be cited according to APA style.
