Genomic technologies such as genetic testing and precision treatments are rapidly becoming routine in oncology care, nurses play an increasingly important role supporting the growing demands for genomics-informed healthcare. Policy infrastructure competencies, standards, scope of practice statements, education curriculum frameworks urgently needed to guide these changes.
Abstract Aim To learn from two jurisdictions with mature genomics‐informed nursing policy infrastructure—the United States (US) and the Kingdom (UK)—to inform development for oncology practice education in Canada. Design Comparative document analysis drawing on 3i + E framework. Methods We drew principles of a rapid review identified academic literature, grey literature documents through systematic search databases, website national genomics organizations US UK, recommendations subject...
Background Genetics and genomics (GG) are transforming approaches to healthcare in Canada around the globe. Canadian nurses must be prepared integrate GG their practice, but modest research this area suggests that have limited competency. Countries integrated across nursing provided guidance about practice implications of through regional policy documents. These documents propelled action nursing. Little is known content document infrastructure Canada. Purpose This study aimed examine for...
Genomics is having a profound impact on every aspect of healthcare.To support nurses to develop genomic literacy and integrate genomics into care, an engagement framework was created.The uses principles nursing intraprofessional collaboration, the knowledge-to-action cycle diffusion innovations theory.This used identify six key priorities for action leadership strategies accelerate sustain nurses' with genomics.With literacy, can fully participate in creation implementation new care...
As key healthcare providers, nurses require genomic competency to fulfil their professional obligations in the era. Prior research suggests that have limited with genomics-informed practice. Concepts Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) theory (i.e., knowledge, attitudes, and attributes innovation adopters) provide a framework understand process adoption innovations, such as genomics, across organizations. We aim synthesize what is known about genomics nursing within DOI identify gaps...
A skilled nursing workforce can ensure that Canadians have safe and equitable access to genomics-informed healthcare. Evidence-informed frameworks designed support the implementation of genomics across indicate leadership collaboration are critical success. However, siloed provincial territorial healthcare systems create challenges for harmonizing efforts. In this article, we discuss a solution bring together nurse leaders jurisdictions domains practice co-create pan-Canadian strategic...
The demand for genomic services that improve disease prevention, early detection and safer treatments has already outpaced the capacity of current system. Nursing leadership strategies are urgently needed to integrate discoveries into education practice. Using findings from national Canadian Adaptation Genetics Genomics Practice Survey completed by 1,012 nurses, we recommend build conducive practice environments assist nurses in developing literacy confidence fully participate integration...
Background: Genomics is a foundational element of precision health and can be used to identify inherited cancers, cancer related risks, therapeutic decisions, address disparities. However, there are structural barriers across the care continuum, including an underprepared nursing workforce, long wait times for service, inadequate policy infrastructure that limit equitable access benefits genomic discoveries. These have persisted decades, yet they modifiable. Two distinct waves efforts...
Monogenic, high penetrance syndromes, conferring an increased risk of malignancies in multiple organs, are important contributors to the hereditary burden cancer. Early detection and reduction strategies patients with a cancer predisposition syndrome can save their lives. However, despite evidence supporting benefits early strategies, most Canadian jurisdictions have not implemented programmatic follow up these patients. In our study site province Newfoundland Labrador (NL), Canada, there is...
The year 2020 was unpredictable and brought about unimaginable change for our world, disrupting operations within the nursing profession healthcare systems at large. In this discussion paper, we revisit a report from Canadian Nurses Association, Toward 2020: Visions Nursing (Villeneuve MacDonald 2006), graduate student perspective. 2006 report, authors presented series of predictions preferred future in Canada 2020. Even without pandemic, pre-existing trends did not favour success visions...
Arguably, the quest for a central, unifying paradigm in nursing has distracted from moving disciplinary knowledge forward an accessible, meaningful manner. In this discursive philosophical article, we uphold that multiparadigmatic research teams and diverse approaches inform effective praxis. We provide overview of our worldviews (dialectical pluralism, critical realism, humanism, pragmatism) their assumptions describe how they are commensurate with nursing. present Stadium Model Nursing as...
