Health policy can serve as an intervention to improve health and advance equity. Like other nursing or health-related interventions, policies frequently necessitate regulation of or changes to practice that enhance outcomes and assure the efficient use of resources. Navigating change and implementing policy can be complex; however, advanced practice nurses are uniquely positioned to facilitate and lead these processes across healthcare systems and communities.
With the learning from this week’s lesson in mind, respond to the following:
In what ways does the nursing process reflect a basic problem-solving process? How do the phases in the nursing process relate to the phases involved in the change process?
Explain how the advanced practice nurse can use these frameworks to lead policy efforts that improve health outcomes and advance equity. Include your rationale.
3. Provide one example where an advanced practice nurse can use policy as an intervention to improve health outcomes and enhance health equity: What is the policy intervention that you would recommend, and what would be the intended goal? How would the policy serve as a blueprint for change? How would the policy impact on health outcomes, equity, and the efficient use of resources?
