Nursing at the grassroots.

A new model of what constitutes political activity--recognizing grassroots issue involvement as well as partisan politics as legitimate political activism--offers hope for the prospect of the nursing profession becoming a strong political force in the future. Increasing involvement by nurses in health and environmental issues will be the nurses' means to achieve political strength. After all, it is that unique ethic of compassion, common to all nurses, that distinguishes a great political leader.

Providing primary care to poor urban women.

Public health nurses used the findings of a 1989 community survey to develop a program to meet the healthcare needs of an urban population in western Pennsylvania. The article details the expansion of the services beyond the storefront location to provide comprehensive women's care through the Rainbow Bridge Project. A formula for other public health nurses to use in replicating a neighborhood center, pointing to the need for many skills not traditionally considered nursing, such as networking, fund-raising, and public relations is illustrated.
