A model for professional nursing in organizations: the Rainbow.
This paper presents a model of professional nursing in organizations that provides cohesive direction to the development of patterns that shape how nursing is structured in an organization. Such cohesive direction can foster integration between the practice and the discipline components of nursing. The model can influence the structure of nursing on a macro level within the organization and on a micro level by influencing patterns of nursing care delivery. A set of values, assumptions, dimensions, constructs, principles and propositions have been identified and brought together in this model. As a framework, it can be used to shape the structures and processes that contribute to professional nursing excellence in practice settings.
