Guest nurse researchers in healthcare agencies: different priorities, different goals.
The changing climate in healthcare agencies and institutions of higher education impacts on clinical nursing research. Roles and responsibilities of nursing service organizations for the approval and conduct of nursing research in clinical agencies and those of nurses seeking guest researcher status are proposed. Problems encountered often by both in the process are analyzed. Clarification and understanding of the goals and priorities of each enables nurses in clinical settings and academically based researchers to collaborate more productively, avoid unnecessary conflict, and promote clinical nursing research.
