Healthy work environment: A systematic review informing a nursing professional practice model in the US Military Health System.

Aim: The aim of the study was to develop recommendations for creating a healthy work environment based on current literature for nurses working within the US Military Health System (MHS). However, our findings would likely benefit other nursing populations and environments as well.

Design: Systematic literature review.

Recommendations From a Systematic Review of Leadership Development to Support a New Nursing Practice Model.

Objective: To develop a new nursing practice model for use within the US military, researchers aimed to create evidence-based recommendations for nursing leadership development based on current literature.

Background: The role of nursing leadership has many implications, including better nurse and patient outcomes. Therefore, an actionable compilation of recommendations informing how to develop effective nurse leaders could be helpful for current and aspiring nurse leaders.

Development of a Joint Professional Practice Model for the Total Nursing Force of the United States Military: Describing an Evidence-Based Process Across Multiple Entities.

Professional practice models are a hallmark of professional organizations. Creating a model that can apply across contexts, however, can be a challenge. This article describes the process that a team of nurse leaders and researchers used to create a professional practice model that would serve active-duty and civilian nurses working in military treatment facilities.

Findings from the development of a nursing joint professional practice model for the U.S. military.

Background: By 2022 the Defense Health Agency became responsible for administration of all military treatment facilities (MTFs), which were previously managed by their respective military services. However, three different service-specific nursing professional practice models currently govern nursing practice in MTFs.

Purpose: To describe the literature search, review, and synthesis of evidence which informed the JPPM and provide some of the most actionable findings.

Components, Implementation, and Outcomes of a Nursing Professional Practice Model: A Systematic Review.

Nursing professional practice models (PPMs) are known to have beneficial effects on nurse and patient outcomes. Determining what components should be present in a PPM, how to implement a PPM, and evaluating the outcomes associated with a PPM is less certain. Therefore, as part of a larger project to develop a nursing PPM for use within the United States Military Health System, this study aimed to conduct a systematic literature review on nursing PPMs.
