Professional Nursing Vision

Paper Summary:

This paper relates that, in five years, the professional vision of the author projects that she will be in a position to lead other nurses in the field of mental health as head nurse of an adolescent drug and alcohol treatment facility. The author points out that to attain this goal she must develop skills in the areas of communication, organization, management and education. The paper explains that the author chooses to be a leader in the field of adolescent drug and alcohol treatment because she has seen in her own family the damage and devastation that drug and alcohol dependence can thrust upon, not only the addict, but also on everyone who loves or interacts with the addict on a regular basis.

From the Paper:

"Locally I will help the nurses that I am charged with supervising learn the difference between caring for the patient and the family, and becoming enmeshed with them. This will be done through the encouragement of education and informational seminar attendance for the nurses who are relatively new to the recovery field of medicine. In addition, I will oversee the nurses on a monthly basis so that I can help guide them to provide the most professional and compassionate care possible."
