Inside best practice: Show the right evidence in the written documentation
HCPro's Weekly Update on the ANCC Magnet Recognition Program®*, September 30, 2008
As you prepare your written documentation for ANCC Magnet Recognition Program® designation, you are expected to show projects or documents that illustrate Force of Magnetism 5: Professional models of care, which falls under Component 3: Exemplary professional practice.
The following are four projects or documents you can include:
- The outline, goals, and objectives of how you educated nurses about your state’s Nurse Practice Act, professional standards of care, and other regulatory requirements, during orientation
- The minutes and documents from meetings that review the hospital’s model of care
- The new programs developed and implemented by staff nurses regarding changes in patient populations and specialty-care needs
- The minutes from budget meetings in which nursing leadership—including managers, staff nurse leaders, and the CNO—review the staffing plans and scheduling processes in relation to patient needs and the care-delivery model on all nursing units
