ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS BY STARTING AN ORIGINAL THREAD:

  1. Describe ways that nurses could use their clinical power to convince legislature, organizations and the public to support and acquire safe staffing.
  2. Do you believe this would decrease the nursing shortage?  Why or why not?
  3. Share an experience where clinical power was used to provide quality care to your patient/client.
