Continuing care: developing a policy analysis for nursing.

Continuing care: developing a policy analysis for nursing Many authors have commented on the invisibility of nursing in policy development, implementation and analysis. Some of this invisibility may be attributed to the lack of an easily accessible framework to assist analysis of policy from a nursing perspective. In this paper we offer a framework for nursing policy analysis based on the domain concepts of nursing. We use continuing care for older people, a topical policy issue and fundamental nursing specialty, as a case study to demonstrate the utility and potential of such a framework in action. The resulting analysis helps identify areas of potential policy interest to nurses, raises questions for further policy analysis and offers a coherent position statement for action.

Women, nursing and caring: the issues.

This is the first of three consecutive articles in Nursing Standard dealing with the issues affecting women in nursing. Articles two and three will focus on the specific problems faced by black and ethnic minority women, and on the future of nurse education in relation to recruitment and retention of nurses. This week, the general issues linking women, caring and nursing are examined, and some possible explanations of why so many women are found in nursing are offered.
