In response to this disparity, five doctorally prepared Black male nurse leaders established the Network of Black Male Nurse Leaders (NBMNL).

We consider the issue of elective abortion to illustrate the nature of disputes about the scope and limits of professional nursing. We describe two competing intuitions about the nature of healthcare namely that healthcare is either for (a) health, objectively defined or (b) well-being, patient defined. We discuss how these intuitions lead to different understandings of the intelligibility of the phrase “abortion is healthcare” and the implications for ethical discourse within professional nursing.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":54705,"journal":{"name":"Nursing Outlook","volume":"73 1","pages":"Article 102307"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142605089","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Post COVID-19, nurses have advocated and lobbied for many changes in their work environments, yet little emphasis has been placed on addressing night shift health and patient safety hazards, and concomitant personal, insurer, organizational, and federal costs. Nurses are also recipients of health care, and their work-related risks must be prioritized.
