The revised JCAHO nursing care standards: areas of emphasis.

The 1991 JCAHO nursing care standards represent a fundamental shift in the focus of the survey and accreditation processes from specifying the means to clarifying the ends of nursing services and from prescribing structures and processes to clarifying the intended outcomes of nursing care. As critical care nurses prepare to meet the compliance requirements of these new accreditation standards, it will be helpful to keep in mind that our services are nursing care, nursing management, and nursing education or research, but our purpose is quality nursing care.

Critical care nursing in the 21st century.

This paper has explored some of the major trends that we can anticipate encountering as we enter the 21st century. Critical care nurses who wish to participate proactively in shaping their professional destiny will listen closely to what futurists have to say about life in the decades ahead. The more we know about what to anticipate, the more informed our decisions will be, and the more likely we will make our desired future a reality.
