    It means being a role model and mentor, and involves supporting change, advocating for quality care and taking risks when necessary. The past, present and future of nursing lies in our leadership capabilities—not only at the management level but in all roles. I encourage registered nurses (RNs) in all domains of practice, and at all levels of experience and expertise, to maximize their leadership potential. As a key competency within the RN scope of practice, leadership is important to achieving excellent patient and client care, and to the long-term progression of the profession.

    Okay, the next question is the cost of health care and risk of patient care in light of staffing shortages, overworked RNs, a decrease in LPN licensure, and staffing ratios, pay rates, and SNF settings.

    All rights reserved. 5 To have a small clarification about what this model mean, or what this approach mean, or the use of this approach, this is a specific or a special case of cluster analysis, but it takes into consideration longitudinal data.

    So again, thank you for all the education consultants who took part in this and we, in the end, developed consensus from all these 3 groups, 18 quality indicators of nursing programs, 11 warning signs, and 8 outcomes. So remember, this was from the education practice and regulation perspective. Our next study, and this is what Brendan Martin did a lot of the work analyzing, was five years, if you remember, of your annual reports and you can see how many annual reports that was. It was a quantitative analysis, and again, gave us the characteristics that predicted approval downgrade or a loss of approval in programs.
