Nurse Educators and Politics

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on nursing faculty members as key influencers, the book explores the limited political engagement of nurses despite their majority presence in American healthcare. Sondra Z. Koff analyzes survey data to reveal nurse educators' attitudes toward public policies and their levels of political activism. By connecting these findings to the historical context of the nursing profession, the work aims to illuminate the reasons behind nurses' subdued role in health care policy-making and their involvement in the broader political landscape.
