Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this cross-sectional descriptive study was to examine the relationship of professional governance, resilience, and empowerment among RNs in clinical practice in 1 healthcare system.
Background: Given the emotional and physical demands of nursing, especially in recent years, exploring ways that hope-inducing and resilience-building models can support professional practice is vital to the current and future nursing workforce.
Methods: An anonymous survey consisting of demographic questions, the Adult Hope Scale, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and the Conditions for Work Effectiveness Questionnaire II was offered to 1450 RNs in a nonprofit community-based healthcare system for volunteer participation.
Results: Nurses who formally participated in professional governance nursing councils reported higher hope, resilience, and work effectiveness scores compared with nurses who did not participate in professional governance.
Conclusions: Based on these initial results, encouraging and creating avenues for the participation of RNs in professional governance are paramount to build a resilient, hopeful, and empowered workforce.
