Journal of Nursing Management, 05/09/08
Holmes D et al. - Despite the remarkable institutional promotion of ‘ready-made’ and ‘ready-to-use’ guidelines, we demonstrate how the RNAO deploys BPGs as part of an ideological agenda that is scientifically, socially, politically and ethically unsound. Collaborations between health care organizations and professional organizations can become problematic when the latter dictate nursing conduct in such a way that critical thinking is impeded. We believe that nurse managers need to understand that the evidence-based movement is the target of well-deserved critiques. These critiques should also be considered before implementing so-called ‘Nursing Best Practice Guidelines’ in health care milieux.
