dc.description | I am pleased to report that we received many more contributions for this edition of the NCNM Review than expected. The downside of this is that it is not possible for us to publish them in their entirety in this edition. In order to ensure, however, that these valuable accounts of recent nursing and midwifery activity within the health and education sectors are not lost, you can read the full text of these items in a separate version of Issue 32 available on line at www.ncnm.ie. I would like to thank all those who took the time to send us their contributions. They are a tribute to the esteem in which the NCNM Review is held as a vehicle for disseminating and sharing developments in nursing and midwifery. In this edition we are including two separate inserts. The first is a summary of a book entitled Clinical Directorates in the Irish Health Services – Managing Resources and Patient Safety. This is a publication that I have prepared in recognition of the major importance of the introduction of clinical directorates throughout the healthcare services in Ireland. The book traces the history of clinical directorates in the USA, UK and Ireland and examines the implications of this model of healthcare management for all clinical professionals, with a particular emphasis on the implications for nursing and midwifery. As a nurse or midwife, if you are not already involved in a clinical directorate setting, you will be soon. It is important therefore that information is available on what this means for us all and what role there is for nursing and midwifery in the development and implementation of these directorates. The second insert tracks the achievements of the National Council since its foundation in 1999. This is an update of a publication produced in 2006 and contains much information on what has been achieved in the development of the professions since the National Council was created on foot of a recommendation of the Commission on Nursing in 1998. | en_GB |
