Building the nursing profession

Building the Profession of Nursing

• Explore the history of nursing and choose two events/topics from history related to nursing (ie education, practices, important people, etc.) and explain each one in detail and why they are important to the nursing profession.
• Research two professional nursing organizations and discuss the following for each organization chosen:
  • The name of the organization and why this organization is important to nursing
  • What resources they provide to members
  • Cost of membership and how many members are part of the organization
  • Current issues the organization is working on
  • Finally, after researching this question answer in detail: Why are Professional Organizations in general important to nursing as a profession?
  • Write a 1000-1500 word APA paper addressing each of the following
    points. Be sure to completely answer all the questions for each bullet point.
    There should be two main sections, one for each bullet below. Separate each
    section in your paper with a clear heading that allows your professor to know
    which bullet you are addressing in that section of your paper. Support your ideas
    with at least three (3) sources using citations in your essay. Make sure to
    cite using the APA writing style for the essay. The cover page and reference
    page in correct APA do not count towards the minimum word amount.
