This book Guide to Nursing’s Social Policy Statement is written by Marsha Diane Mary Fowler. Nursing is often called a helping profession: the Nursing Social Policy Statement discusses the many ways nursing helps others. It is about the social contract relationship between the nursing profession and society and their reciprocal expectations. This arrangement empowers the nurse as a professional to meet the needs involved in care, the health of patients and clients, and the health of society. Helps nurses participate in political and legislative action that supports nursing education, research, and practice to better influence health and care; and understand social ethics and justice that affect global and individual health.
The Nursing Social Policy Statement (NSPS) is a document that articulates the parameters of the relationship between the nursing profession and society. It forms and frames both the basis for nursing participation in care practices and the way society approaches health and health policy. It is not about the nurse-patient relationship, but about nursing as an entity within society, and how that relationship should be understood, developed and lived by the profession as a whole.
