Enhancing the image of nursing through the care plan.
As nurses, we know that the liberal arts are integrated into our professional studies. But how can this be conveyed to our academic peers as well as the public? The author discusses a novel use of the nursing care plan to show nonnurses the breadth and scope of professional nursing. The setting was a national conference of professional and liberal arts educators, and the nursing care plan was presented as a teaching tool. The results were exhilarating.
