Description
Are you a Nursing Professional or just in the Nursing Profession? There is a difference... This seminar will carefully examine influential factors on professionalism in nursing. Topics that will be discussed include behaviors that promote and/or hinder professionalism, how to maintain accountability in nursing practice, legal and ethical issues, and key elements of the South Carolina Nurse Practice Act. Professionalism will be defined and explained through tangible measures so you will be able to immediately implement the strategies discussed. The day will conclude with a mock trial to summarize and provide a sense of reality to the topics discussed. This seminar is a “must attend” for all nurses who want to be more than just in the profession.
