Politically correct ... a nursing responsibility enhanced by the Nurse in Washington Internship.
Understanding the legislative process is the right of every citizen. Being concerned, knowledgeable, and committed to political activity is the responsibility of each citizen. Over two million American citizens are registered nurses. Nursing's responsibility is to prepare nurses to be politically knowledgeable, correct and active in the establishment of health care policy which affects the nation's citizens. One opportunity to achieve this in nursing practice is to use the knowledge shared at the Nurse in Washington Internship (NIWI).
