Question #1 Look at the New Jersey Nurse Practice Act – under which state department is this governed by? – what information does this document include? – describe the components (criteria) for initial licensure for RNs in NJ – describe the components (criteria) for renewal licensure for RNs in NJ
Question #2 Look up Florence Nightingale – why is she such a historical figure in nursing? (hint: many reasons so try to list as much as you can) – what type of nurse was she (which specialty did she practice?) – why is her book notes on nursing still relevant to the nursing profession today?
In Summary – Why is Nursing considered a Profession as opposed to a career or a job? (hint: look up the ANA (American Nurses Association) website @ www.nursingworld.org).
