Inmiddels weten we dat veel patiënten geen op onderzoeksresultaten gebaseerde zorg krijgen of zorg krijgen die overbodig of zelfs potentieel schadelijk is. Ondanks deze kennis is minder bekend hoe deze internationaal bestaande kloof tussen onderzoek en de verpleegkundige praktijk te overbruggen is. Gebruikelijke implementatiestrategieën die deze kloof proberen te dichten, zijn vaak gericht op de individuele professional en minder vaak op de sociale omgeving of de context waarin de verpleegkundige werkzaam is. In het proefschrift van Gerda Holleman probeert zij meer inzicht te krijgen in de rol die de context heeft bij het implementeren van evidence-based practice (EBP) in de verpleegkundige praktijk. Ze maakt een onderscheid tussen drie elementen in de sociale context: de professionele verpleegkundige beroepsorganisaties, de verpleegkundige opinieleider (een gerespecteerd persoon in een gezondheidszorgorganisatie die innovatiekennis heeft en gemotiveerd is implementatie tot een succes te maken) en de verpleegkundige teams.

Objective This study aims to better understand how new future-oriented nursing roles are enacted in a general hospital. Design A learning history, that is, a participatory action-oriented research design to explore and foster organizational learning. Methods Data collection consisted of a (historical) document analysis, the shadowing of differentiated nursing practices (36 h), 22 open interviews, 4 oral history interviews, 2 focus groups and a podcast series (7 h) created with participants. Results The data gathered revealed three important themes regarding enacting new nursing roles: (1) stretching the nature of nursing work, (2) using earlier experiences and (3) collectively tackling taboos. Conclusions Differentiated nursing practices and enacting new nursing roles have long and complex histories. Attempts to differentiate are often met with resistance from within the nursing profession. This study shows how the new role of nurse coordinator was negotiated in nursing teams. With a bottom-up approach focused on collective responsibilities. By acknowledging and reflecting on the past, spaces were enacted in which the role of nurse coordinator became one role, among others, in the delivery of patient care. Impact This study provides an innovative perspective on differentiated nursing practices by focusing on the past, the present and the future. We found that local, situated conditions can be taken as starting points when new nursing roles are enacted. In addition, shifting focus from individual nursing roles to nursing team development, emphasizing collective responsibilities, softens strong (historically) grown emotions and creates spaces in which new roles become negotiable. Patient or Public Contribution No patient or public contribution.

This speech discusses how the professorship intends to support practitioners in the nursing domain and contribute to shaping nursing leadership and each person's professional individuality. The title of the speech, “Notes on Nursing 2.0,” is particularly intended to emphasize the need for these changes in the nursing domain. Not by assuming that nothing has changed in care and nursing since Nightingale's time. There has. Being educated in the professional domain is not only a given but a requirement. The knowledge domain of care and nursing has developed far and wide in nursing diagnostics and standards. Nursing science research, which Nightingale once started as the first female statistician in the British Kingdom, has firmly established itself in education and practice. Wanting to be of significance to others out of compassion is still the professional motivation, but there is no longer a subservient servitude (Cingel van der, 2012). At the same time, wholehearted leadership is not yet taken for granted in daily practice and optimal professional practice falters due to an equality principle of differently educated caregivers and nurses that has been held for too long. That is the need for change to which this 2.0 version “Notes on Nursing” and the lectorate want to contribute in the coming years. Chapter 1, through the metaphors in the story “The Cat Who Looked at the King,” describes the vision of emancipatory action research and the change principles that the lectorate will deploy. Chapter 2 contains the reason, mission and lines of research that are interrelated within the lectorate. Chapters 3 and 4 address the themes of identity and leadership, discussing their interrelationship with professional practice and developing a research culture. In addition, specific aspects that influence practice and work culture today are addressed, and how the lectorate contributes specifically to the development of nursing leadership and the formation of professional identity in the relevant domain is described. Chapter 5 contains a summary of the principles on which the research program is based, as well as information on current and future projects. Chapter 6 provides background information on the lector and the members of the knowledge circle.
