  • Title: Barriers to nursing advocacy: a concept analysis.
    Author: Hanks RG.
    Journal: Nurs Forum; 2007; 42(4):171-7. PubMed ID: 17944697.
    Abstract:
    Advocacy for clients is viewed as an essential function of nursing; however, to be effective advocates for patients, the nurse must often overcome barriers to being an effective advocate. This concept analysis of barriers to nursing advocacy uses the Walker and Avant method of concept analysis. By analyzing the barriers to effective nursing advocacy for clients, nursing can then find strategies to manage those barriers and maximize the nurse's advocacy efforts.
