Word cloud generators have become popular tools for meetings and team-building events. Groups or teams are asked to use these applications to input words they feel best describe their team or their role. A “word cloud” is generated by the application that makes prominent the most-used terms, offering an image of the common thinking among participants of that role.

What types of words would you use to build a nursing word cloud? Empathetic, organized, hard-working, or advocate would all certainly apply. Would you add policy-maker to your list? Do you think it would be a very prominent component of the word cloud?

Nursing has become one of the largest professions in the world, and as such, nurses have the potential to influence policy and politics on a global scale. When nurses influence the politics that improve the delivery of healthcare, they are ultimately advocating for their patients. Hence, policy-making has become an increasingly popular term among nurses as they recognize a moral and professional obligation to be engaged in healthcare legislation.

To Prepare:

• Revisit the Congress.gov website provided in the Resources and consider the role of RNs and APRNs in policy-making.
• Reflect on potential opportunities that may exist for RNs and APRNs to participate in the policy-making process.

Write an explanation of at least two opportunities that exist for RNs and APRNs to actively participate in policy-making. Explain some of the challenges that these opportunities may present and describe how you might overcome these challenges. Finally, recommend two strategies you might make to better advocate for or communicate the existence of these opportunities to participate in policy-making. Be specific and provide examples.

1-Explanation of how healthcare policy can impact the advanced practice nurse profession 

2-Explanation of why advocacy is considered an essential component of the advance practice nurse’s role

3- Discuss the four pillars of Transformational leadership and the effect it may have on influencing policy change

Part I: Write your Philosophy of Health

This week’s discussion board assignment requires you to write and share your personal philosophy of health. Your philosophy needs to be at least 250words long. Since this is a personal statement, it is appropriate to write in first person tense (I, you, me etc.). If you use any sources, such as an inspiriting quotation, be sure to use APA format to document the quotation and cite it in a reference list at the end of your statement. Quotes do not count in the 250-word minimum.  Be creative, succinct, and clear. I would like to read your unique thoughts. 

As a future health professional, it’s important to explore your own views about health. There is no doubt that as you go along in your academic major, and have experiences in the field, that your philosophy will change. However, as you begin your journey into health education, you should summarize your views thus far as a starting point. You can use this written health philosophy for your professional portfolio and expand and change your health philosophy as you learn and experience more.
