Issues Identified and Discussed by Participants in the C.A.U.S.N. (Western Region) Conference, February 24-26, 1973
Abstract
AN attempt has been made in the following summaries to convey some of the flavour of the groups' presentations. It is appreciated that in the condensation, some ideas may be presented in different contexts, but it is hoped that participants will recognize the thrust and intent. I. THE NURSE'S ROLE AND FUNCTION How do we help ourselves, other nurses, and the nursing profession in general to assume our potentially powerful role in the development of new health care structures and new roles for nursing within these structures? Our assumption was that we do have power to influence, and that we do have a potentially greater power to influence given a conceptualization of the kind of question being asked. Each of us has to have a conscious awareness of issues, has to have a commitment to the values of change for the common good. We must trust our own and the group's ability to influence.Downloads
