Inspired by a #RNChat on Twitter, I coined the term Meaningful Nurse to describe a possible theme for a planned RNCamp event. And now I ponder that expression "Meaningful Nurse". What does it mean to be a Meaningful Nurse, what roles do we perform that have meaning and meet appropriate definitions of being an nurse with a Meaningful Use.
I will look for nurses stories of how their expertise and experience are often not used in meaningful ways to better patient outcomes and ask for their suggestions on how they could be better utilized. Then we will explore how we might better define our roles and fully exemplify a Meaningful Nurse.
Who wants to go first?
