[Article Title: Nurses and Person-Centered Care / Rosemarie Rizzo Parse, p. 265]

Abstract: “What’s meaningful to our patients trumps anything medical that we can offer,” said Mikkael A. Sekeres, MD, in an article he wrote entitled “The Power of a Meaningful Moment” in the May 8, 2018 edition of The New York Times. He reported this after arranging a temporary discharge for a very ill patient to go to a “daddy-daughter dance.” His statement reflects what is thought to be one of the newer views that guide health professionals who care for seriously ill persons requiring in-hospital healthcare. It is a definite illustration of what is known in common healthcare parlance as patient-centered care. In the last several years or more, patient- or person-centered care is noted as the basis of care in the philosophy and mission statements of many healthcare institutions, yet it is not a new phenomenon. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864335 [Article Title: Differing Perspectives on Paradox / Sandra Schmidt Bunkers, p. 266-270]

Abstract: In this article, the author describes two differing perspectives on paradox: the humanbecoming paradigm perspective and the management/organizational theory perspective. Examples of paradoxes from these two differing views are presented. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864331 [Article Title: Collaboration: Does It Require Pragmatic Thought? / Michele Poradzisz and Kristine L. Florczak, p. 271-275]

Abstract: The authors of this column consider the subject of collaboration in terms of healthcare practice, research, and education. To that end, the concept of pragmatism is discussed as a precursor to collaboration followed by consideration of specific instances of collaboration in practice, research, and education. Additionally, the consequences of collaboration are discussed. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864336 [Article Title: Ethics of Scholarly Collaboration / Constance L. Milton, p. 276-277]

Abstract: Scholarly collaboration with others involves endeavors filled with known-unknown expectations and ambiguity in the development of projects, presentations, and publications. This article begins an exploration of potential ethics involved in situations of collaboration among scholars as potential conflicts of interest unfold. The straight-thinking ethos surrounding collaboration is highlighted from a humanbecoming leading-following model. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864332 [Article Title: Collaboration in Teaching-Learning: Honoring the Wisdom of Diverse Perspectives / Nan Russell Yancey, p. 278-282]

Abstract: As complexity challenges healthcare providers across disciplines, calls arise for greater collaboration across settings and disciplines. In this column, the importance of honoring the wisdom of the diverse perspectives of collaborators with varying educational and experiential backgrounds is explored. For authentic collaboration to be possible, collaborators must have a solid theoretical, scientific, and experiential foundation within their particular discipline. The challenge for nurse faculty is to prepare students for collaboration by providing teaching-learning opportunities for building a solid foundation in the discipline, being clear about the distinctions across disciplines as well as the distinctions among the many degree levels within nursing. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864329 [Article Title: Highlighting Collaboration in Living the Art of Nursing / Karen Carroll, p. 283-285]

Abstract: Collaboration is a frequently cited concept and also cited as a call-to-action item required among team members to improve the status of healthcare for persons and communities. With a humanbecoming paradigmatic lens, freedom is established to elevate the idea that community provides an essential component upon which collaboration can be built. Community is conceptualized as oneness of humanuniverse and is highlighted as an artful aspect of providing care to persons by keeping in the forefront the three humanbecoming change concepts of moving-initiating, anchoring-shifting, and pondering-shaping. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864333 [Article Title: Collaboration as Leadership / Pamela N. Clarke, p. 286-287]

Abstract: Her vision and expertise are reflected in the piece she has written for this column on a continuation of a geriatric training effort that was first funded in 1994. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864338 [Article Title: Building Interprofessional Teams Through Partnerships to Address Quality / Tara Cortes, p. 288-290]

Abstract: Interprofessional collaborative education and practice is essential in the current complex healthcare climate. Barriers to interprofessional education include difficulty scheduling joint activities amid the silos of discipline-specific curricula and the lack of urgency by faculty to find innovative ways to commit to interprofessional training. Barriers in practice include poor understanding of the roles of different professionals and lack of awareness of the concept because the people in the workforce were mostly educated before interprofessional practice and education were prioritized by national bodies representing academic professions. The author of this paper describes opportunities for interprofessional education and practice and describes a way to create an educational-practice partnership to drive quality in healthcare settings. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864343 [Article Title: Once BITTEN, Twice Shy: An Applied Trauma-Informed Healthcare Model / Chrystal L. Lewis, Jennifer Langhinrichsen-Rohling, Candice N. Selwyn and Emma C. Lathan, p. 291-298]

Abstract: Nurses need a pragmatic theory to understand and respond to the impact of vulnerable patients’ previous healthcare experiences, as these are likely to influence response and adherence to treatment plans. The authors of this paper present the new BITTEN (Betrayal history by health-related institutions, Indicator for healthcare engagement, Traumas related to healthcare, Trust in healthcare providers, patient Expectations and Needs) Model of Trauma-Informed Healthcare. BITTEN identifies patients’ current healthcare expectations and needs as a function of their previous betrayal by healthcare systems, which operates in conjunction with their current health indicators to potentially trigger trauma symptoms and impact trust in healthcare providers. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864344 [Article Title: Health Literacy in Relation to Health Outcomes: A Concept Analysis / Melanie Sierra and Rosina Cianelli, p. 299-305]

Abstract: Health literacy is a concept discussed in the literature of many disciplines, but the definitions used are varied. Using the Walker and Avant method of concept analysis, the authors explore health literacy in relation to health outcomes—the defining attributes, antecedents, consequences, and empirical referents. In addition, cases are provided that illustrate health literacy in relation to health outcomes. This concept analysis allows for colleagues in nursing to have a better understanding of this concept and facilitates further development of tools to assess and improve health literacy and ultimately improve health outcomes overall. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864328 [Article Title: Self-Transcendence, Well-Being, and Vulnerability in Healthcare Mission Participants / Elizabeth A. Fiske, p.306-313]

Abstract: The purpose of the study was to investigate the presence and relationship of self-transcendence and spiritual well-being in persons who have participated in short-term, faith-based, foreign, healthcare missions. This was a descriptive correlational study with the addition of open-ended questions. The mean Self-Transcendence Scale score for this sample was higher than mean scores of comparison studies and scores for women were higher than mean scores for men. Qualitative data provided rich accounts of the central concepts of Reed’s self-transcendence theory. Reed’s theory of self-transcendence was extended to a new and different population. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864326 [Article Title: Comfort: Context for the Study Abroad Faculty Role / Janet H. Davis and Diane Spoljoric, p. 314-319]

Abstract: Universities are increasingly undertaking student study abroad programs led by nursing faculty. The authors launched an inaugural study abroad nursing course. They proposed that the significance of the faculty trip role extends beyond the operational tasks required for international programs. Comfort theory was chosen as a good fit, since it offered a context for the significance of nursing faculty leading study abroad trips. It was consistent with the authors’ experiences. Nurse faculty members applying technical and coaching interventions to relieve needs can strengthen students facing the demands of international experiences. It was concluded that comfort theory provided meaningful context for the international trip leader role. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864327 [Article Title: Engaging in Global Nursing Education / Steven L. Baumann, p. 320-321]

Abstract: The nursing profession in the Sultanate of Oman in the past 50 years has undergone considerable growth and development. Its modernization was assisted by visiting professors from outside the country and by sending some nurses to study abroad. Visiting nurses and nurse educators who go to work in countries like Oman should consider implementing the ethic behind the mission statement of Partners in Health, which holds a preferential option for the poor, rather than just considering global health as another international business or job opportunity. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864340 [Article Title: The Nursing Profession in Oman: An Overview / Majid Rashid Al Maqbali, Omar Al Omari, Salah Ben Ammar Slimane and Najeem Al Balushi, p. 322-325]

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the history of nursing in the Sultanate of Oman, focusing in particular on the past 50 years. The information cited in the paper is retrieved from the official documents of the Directorate General of Nursing Affairs at the Ministry of Health of Oman, unless otherwise cited. Modern nursing in Oman began in the early 1900s, with the arrival of the American Missionary Association. The key events for the development of nursing in Oman occurred in 1970, when the Ministry of Health was established, and in 1979, when the Directorate of Nursing emerged as an independent department within the Ministry office. It is hoped that this article will be used by Omani and other researchers to further explore the evolution of nursing as a profession in Oman. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864346 [Article Title: Leading-Following With Theory and Technology / Mario R. Ortiz, p. 326]

Abstract: It is interesting to create paths of leadership within nursing that harness nursing knowledge and push the boundaries of possibilities. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419867328 [Article Title: Leadership Opportunities for Nurses in Telehealth: A King Perspective / Ann E. Fronczek and Nannette Cowen, p. 327-330]

Abstract: Advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) are in an excellent position to provide leadership for advancing telehealth initiative. King’s social system concepts of role, status, authority, power, and decision-making may be explored in this context. The authors of this article provide insight into the leadership opportunities in telehealth that exist for APRNs in current healthcare systems through a King perspective. The authors discuss some of the major challenges for APRNs in telehealth and how leadership may overcome some of those challenges. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864347 [Article Title: Thoughts About Real Nursing / Jacqueline Fawcett, Grace Derboghossian, Kimberlee Flike, Eva Gómez, Helen Park Han, Narineh Kalandjian, Sarin Tapayan and Jennifer E. Pletcher, p. 331-332]

Abstract: This essay presents thoughts about what constitutes real nursing and who may be considered a real nurse. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864339 [Article Title: Effects of the Training About Prostate Cancer and Screening Methods on Knowledge Level / Senay Karadag Arli and Ayse Berivan Bakan, p. 333-339]

Abstract: This quasi-experimental study aims to identify the effects of the training about prostate cancer and screening methods given to men aged 40 and over on their knowledge level. It was found that there were no differences between the experimental and control groups in terms of the perceived susceptibility, perceived seriousness, health motivation, perceived barriers, and perceived benefits subscale mean scores, but the posttest data revealed that the perceived susceptibility, health motivation, and perceived benefits subscale mean scores of the experimental group were higher and their perceived barriers mean score was lower; the differences between the mean scores were statistically significant (p < .05, p < .01, p < .001). An analysis of the Health Belief Model after the training about prostate cancer and screening methods showed that the training was effective. Actually, the authors recommended that especially male nurses can play an effective role in training about prostate cancer and screening methods for men in Turkey. https://doi.org/10.1177/0894318419864345 [Article Title: Collaboration in Healthcare: Is There Any Theoretical Basis? / Mary R.
