Teaching family/significant other nursing.
A family/significant other nursing education program for staff nurses can benefit staff, patients, families, and the organization. Recent Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) focus survey processes attempt to evaluate how nursing departments operationalize the JCAHO nursing standards. Nurses must be able to articulate and document their organization's policies and procedures regarding the nursing care standards, including those standards that address family and significant other needs.
