Multiple Intelligence In Nursing

Informatics impacts the healthcare setting, through the implementation of EHRs. A nurse informaticist not only manages the implementation of technology but follows guidelines set by ANA. Growth in nursing is moving forward as technology is erupting on the scene. The purpose of this paper does nurse impact leadership change for nurses moving into nursing informatics. Can implementation of technological transformation the care of patients, and components of ANCC Magnet health care set?

“More highly educated nursing workforce is critical to meeting the nation’s nursing needs and delivering safe, effective patient care….. Without a more educated nursing workforce, the nation’s health will be further at risk (Tri-council for Nursing, 2010).” As the acuity of the patient increases daily, so is the need for increases of higher education for nurses. The factor of increasing complexity of patient health require higher education for the liability of safe practice, thus is an agreeable requirement for employers to place upon the employees. Acquiring a bachelor’s degree is only an improvement for everyone. Nurses need the ability of fast critical thinking skills and observation of declining signs and symptoms. Nurses also must have the ability to educate

An important trait to life that many people have is intelligence. It is an exceptionally significant feature that people use in life for either good or bad. Intelligence can be positive, bringing bigger paychecks, fame, and power. These positive aspects of intelligence sound good, but such shrewdness has its disadvantages. Some negative aspects of intellect are depression, difficulty making friends, and the lowering of self-esteem. Living in a society where money can give people great pleasures, many believe intelligence is great trait. When individuals become highly intelligent, there can be times when they start to realize the disadvantages and begin regretting the way they lived their lives.

Camilli (2014), asserted that educational delivery is being carried out in innovative and convenient ways, including the use of simulation, virtual classrooms, distance education, podcasts, web conferencing, and online assessments. Information and communication technologies (ICTs) can be easily recognized as standard components of the nursing process and daily nursing practice, appearing as electronic assessments. Furthermore, nursing students are gaining increasing exposure to technologies during undergraduate studies which includes increasing volumes of electronic health records (EHR), digital diagnostic tools, health monitoring, and reporting equipment, barcode scanning, as well as mobile and hand-held documentation devices. This skills can be applied to clinical setting such as using EHR to follow up patient laboratory results and relay critical lab values to the physician. Also, barcode scanning can be used to prevent medical errors by giving the correct medications to the patient and also prompts the EHR for any related allergies to the medication that is prescribed during treatment or hospitalization. Therefore, continued success rests heavily upon nurse educator 's to collectively instruct and integrate informatics in the classroom and clinical setting. The key concepts of informatics such as the basic ideas that underlie modern computers, networks, and information be introduced in the curriculum (Camilli,

How intelligence can be measured has been debated for several years by different psychologists. Howard Gardner had a theory of multiple intelligences; the idea that people vary in their ability levels across different domains of intellectual skill. The book talked about eight different intelligences including verbal/linguistic, body-kinesthetic, and logical mathematical. This theory seemed quite logical since different people are good at different things. There are several different real-world examples of people who fall under these categories including Martin Luther King Jr., Serena Williams, and Isaac Newton.

Tanner (2006), had introduce the term ‘thinking like a nurse’. When I read this article I was wondering what it means and takes to think like a nurse, I am a nurse by profession and yet I don’t even know what it means. In order to be a professional nurse, nurses are required to learn to think like a nurse. To my surprise, to be able think like a nurse, a nurse got to clearly defined and understands what is critical thinking and clinical reasoning. Both terms are powerful terms and these terms explain the mental processes nurses use to make certain that they are doing their most excellent thinking and decision making for their patient’s better outcomes.

Intrinsic factors critically considered when people think about the main components of success. However, Malcolm Gladwell, a famous writer, contradicts this tendency through the book, Outliers. The book, Outliers insists that extrinsic factors define success rather than the intrinsic ones. Nonetheless, Gladwell himself goes against the topic of Outliers in his assertion: “if you work hard enough and assert yourself, and use your mind and imagination, you can shape the world to your desires (Gladwell, 2008).” The assertion implies that individuals could achieve success only with those intrinsic factors. Gladwell’s assertion is wrong because people can’t achieve success without an opportunity of relative age, an opportunity to have practical

"Critical Thinking at Triage: Ask the Question," is the title of the first article I reviewed regarding using critical thinking in the nursing profession. Currently, I work at a local hospital in the Emergency Department. So, triaging patients is something I do on a regular basis. The author, Diane Gurney, writes about how the triage nurse must use critical thinking skills when triaging patients. From my personal experience, it is not uncommon for the beds in the Emergency Department to be completely full. This means that after being triaged that some patients may have to wait in the waiting area before coming back to a room. The article states that "asking discriminating questions can be key in determining the problem and ultimately, the patient's priority when direct bedding is unavailable" (Gurney, 2015, p. 362). Basically, ask the patient different questions regarding the complaint to help make a conclusion on what might be going on with the patient. The nurse should think about the worst possibilities that may occur.

The concept assessment simply refers to an act of appraisal, evaluation and judgment (Dossey, Keegan, & Barrere, 2015, 469). In nursing care, assessment is the first crucial step that is carried out to be able collect and analyze information about a client. Assessment involves various issues such as physiological, psychological, spiritual, socio-cultural, life-style, and economic factors. This essay explores assessments in nursing practice and their importance in this field. It also covers models such as biopsychosocial, holistic, nursing process, and Ropers’ nursing model of the twelve activities of living.

Many authors had mentioned that the central of professional nursing practice are by the ability to think critically via the application of knowledge and experience, problem solving and decision making. Yildirim & Ozkahraman (2011) had argued that, critical thinking is the ability to monitor what we are thinking, doing so by focusing on critical points in the process, checking to see if we really are on target, and if we are accurate in our assessment. Johnson & Webber (2010) had introduce the idea that critical thinking as a term that been used over the years as interchangeably with concepts such as decision making, nursing process, problem solving, evaluation, critical analysis, judgment, reflection and reasoning.

The nursing process is a series of organized steps designed for nurses to provide excellent care. Learn the five phases, including assessing, diagnosing, planning, implementing, and evaluating.

Since the spread of formal schooling and education in human societies, fostering cognitive abilities, such as understanding, reasoning, critical thinking, creativity, problem-solving and judgment has been highlighted [1]. Problem-solving is an essential skill in today’s life [2]. Problem-solving is a goal-directed thinking [3]. It is a mental process, some logical, orderly, intellectual thinking that helps cope with problems, search several solutions and choose the best solution [4]. According to Moshirabadi, problem-solving is a systematic process and a problem-focused situation analysis that indicates the ability of individuals to overcome obstacles and to achieve goals. Problem-solving consists of three components of problem-solving

According to Kagan and Gall (1998), intelligence is described as “a term referring to a variety of mental capabilities, including the ability to reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend complex ideas, learn quickly, and learn from experience.” Meanwhile, Schmidt and Hunter (2000) defined general intelligence as “the ability to grasp and reason correctly with abstractions (concepts) and solve problems”. Although there are many kinds of intelligence, practical intelligence, social intelligence, and especially emotional intelligence have received substantial attention.

According to Wagner, humanistic approach is primarily a reaction to the two major views of humanity which are the Freudian perspective and the behavioral perspective thus humanitaristic approach is the “third force”.

Doctor, one of the most respectful professions of our society. They serve the patients with the objective of 100% successful in curing but still some of the doctors are more successful than others. What is the measure of success? Is it only a strong scientific mind? No! It was, in the past, but now some fundamental new theories have been introduced: The Multiple Intelligences Theory (Gardner, 1983) & The Emotional Intelligence Theory (Mayer & Salovey, 1990; Goleman, 1995). Then we can say that success depends on several intelligences and on the control of emotions. IQ alone is no more the measure for success; emotional intelligence, social intelligence, and luck also play a big role in a person's success (Goleman, 1995). In the work place all kinds of articles are written, workshops and conferences are held to help doctors (Epstein, 1999); employees and managers (Abraham, 1999; Laabs, 1999; Barrier & Bates, 1999) become aware of the components of emotional intelligence so that they improve themselves. If emotional intelligence is considered . Whereas on the other hand stress has significant impact on Doctor’s performance. Today stress has become a
