NurseBuff also said a philosophy could help nurses strive for new goals. Educators should encourage nurses to work to the full scope of their practice, education and expertise.
“Your philosophy in nursing can also push you to set higher and better goals for yourself. It can help you rediscover your passion for work and push you to always move forward,” NurseBuff said.
RNs seeking to advance their positions in nursing should consider a career as a nurse educator. Nurse educators train the next generation of nurses through high-quality education. They help new nurses understand why a philosophy is so important to their careers.
At Duquesne University, RNs who graduate from the university’s online master’s in nursing program and post-master’s certificate program learn all of the vital skills for working in academic and clinical education settings.
