Les gens sont des êtres finis qui possèdent des capacités variées de fonctionner dans la société. Chaque personne est unique, appliquant dans sa vie quotidienne des systèmes définis à l’image de ses valeurs, de ses intentions et de son style de vie. Les gens ont le droit de prendre des décisions en ce qui con- cerne leurs besoins en matière de soins de santé et ont aussi le droit de participer pour répondre à ces besoins. La profession infirmière contribue de façon unique en aidant les clients (personnes, familles ou groupes, y compris les proches et la population) à atteindre un niveau de santé optimal dans divers milieux.

Committee Opinion, Number 722, October 2017, Marijuana Use During Pregnancy and Lactation,
Interim Update
Site: ncsbn.org
Marijuana smoke contains many of the same respira- tory disease-causing and carcinogenic toxins as tobacco smoke, often in concentrations several times greater than in tobacco smoke (11). Adverse socioeconomic conditions, such as poverty and malnutrition, may con- tribute to outcomes otherwise attributed to marijuana. For example, one population-based study reported that pregnant marijuana users were more often underweight and had lower levels of education, had a lower household income, and were less likely to use folic acid supple- mentation than nonusers (2).

Critical Thinking Developing the ability to think critically is essential to nurs- ing practice as it is with any profession where there is an obligation to be licensed to practice. The Delphi Research Project of 1990 describes the attributes of an ideal critical thinker, and authors (Facione, Facione & Sanchez, 1994) also contend these are the characteristics of a nurse with ideal clinical judgment using the core critical thinking cog- nitive skills of interpretation, analysis, inference, evaluation and explanation as an interactive, reflective, reasoning process.

National Council of State Boards of Nursing, Inc. (NCSBN) | 2010 4 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Average setting-specific importance ratings ranged from 3.57 to 4.90. Average total group importance ratings ranged from 3.21 to 4.89. Summary A nonexperimental, descriptive study was con- ducted to explore the importance and frequency of activities performed by newly-licensed LPN/VNs. More than 2,400 LPN/VNs responded. In general, findings indicate that activities listed in the survey were representative of the work performed in LPN/ VNs’ practice settings.

As nurses often work with clients with varying con- ditions, responders were allowed to give multiple answers, resulting in percentages within each job title totaling more than 100%. Client Ages The most frequent response for Newly Licensed LPN/VNs (69.3%), LPN/VN Educators (75.5%) and LPN/VN Supervisors (83.7%) was caring for older adults aged 65-85.

Questionnaire development A number of processes were used to create, evalu- ate and refine the survey instrument used for the 2006 RN Post Entry-Level Practice Analysis study. The activity statements created by the SME panels were reviewed and edited by the 2006 NCSBN Con- tinued Competence Task Force. The resulting 129 activity statements were incorporated into a survey format. The activity statements were integrated into a practice analysis survey that had been reviewed and approved by the SME panels and the Contin- ued Competence Task Force.

The SMEs provided positive ratings regarding the meeting and group process which helped to validate that job analysis processes were faithfully followed. Direct Observation The SME panels performed several tasks crucial to the success of the practice analysis study. Each panel member was asked to request that three of their colleagues com- plete a log of their daily activities. The daily logs were a proxy for the direct observation method of practice analyses. Since it would have been difficult and time-con- suming to conduct direct observations of RNs in a variety of work settings and specialty areas, asking the SMEs to provide daily logs seemed to be a reasonable proxy for the direct observation.
