From Brainstorming to Strategic Plan: The Framework for the Society for the Advancement of Disaster NursingA Work in Progress
Professional health care societies play a critical role in promoting excellence in patient care, educating and certifying their members on evidence-based practices, and pursuing relevant research agendas to advance the science in the field. Disaster nursing is a subspecialty of professional nursing characterized by a unique knowledge base and set of skills and abilities not used in normal daily health care activities.

Follow the Leader: Changing the Game of Hierarchy in Health Care
Almost every formal organization has a multilayered hierarchy. The role of the leader has been discussed in the literature for decades. Less well understood, and certainly less well documented, is the role of the follower. Followers make up the majority of any organization but have been overlooked as a worthy component of the team. The first step in breaking this mold is identifying the types of followership that are present within the nursing profession. A population of nurses with 4 or fewer years of experience in a designated hospital setting in Southwest Texas. A descriptive study, using a 20-question, 7-point (0-6) Li...

Beyond a Single Country's Borders: Trade in Services Uncovered Through Bibliometrics
This article examines, through the use of bibliometric analysis, the extent to which nursing scholars are engaged in the policy debate surrounding trade in services. Results demonstrate that, in comparison to medical colleagues, the nursing profession is more regionally orientated, focused on more operational-based themes and orientated to Mode 4: Mobility of the Profession. However, with the impetus of initiatives such as Nursing Now, opportunities exist to increase nurses' contribution to policy in today's ever more connected supranational environment. To be effective, and if quantum rather than incremental progress is t...
