My Life as a Nurse-Researcher
Suzanne R. Allen, RN:"The beeper goes off, and I race to the ED of the local hospital about two miles away. There, a patient with acute myocardial infarction (MI) awaits, tubes sticking out of him, an ashen look on his frightened face.
Three hours earlier, while the patient was working in his yard, his chest had begun to ache. The aching soon developed into a crushing pressure. Summoning family members for help, he had them call 911 and was whisked to the emergency department. His ECG now shows more than 2 mm of elevation in the anterolateral leads. The order is given for a thrombolytic." ******************************************************
Foundation of Nursing Studies:"Foundation of Nursing Studies a UK-based charity whose sole purpose is to help nurses, midwives and health visitors improve patient care by encouraging them to use the most up-to-date methods. It is widely agreed that practice should always be based on evidence and research, but some findings never reach the patients who will most benefit. Nurses need to be able to respond to developments in their field and change their practice quickly and easily."

National Institute of Nursing Research:"The National Institute of Nursing Research supports clinical and basic research to establish a scientific basis for the care of individuals across the life span--from management of patients during illness and recovery to the reduction of risks for disease and disability and the promotion of healthy lifestyles. According to its broad mandate, the Institute seeks to understand and ease the symptoms of acute and chronic illness, to prevent or delay the onset of disease or disability or slow its progression, to find effective approaches to achieving and sustaining good health, and to improve the clinical settings in which care is provided." ******************************************************
Institute for Johns Hopkins Nursing: "The Institute for Johns Hopkins Nursing integrates the essential values, philosophy, theory, practice, research, and heritage of Johns Hopkins Nursing into its programs, services and products" ******************************************************
Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center, General Clinical Research Center, Nursing Research Services:"The GCRC Nursing Staff is comprised of expert practitioners from various areas of nursing practice. Their backgrounds in general medical-surgical, intensive care, burn care, drug research, geriatrics, cardiology, and oncology serve as a foundation for implementation of quality clinical research protocols. Staff are certified in either Basic or Advanced Cardiac Life Support. Each GCRC protocol is assigned a Nurse coordinator who is responsible for moving the study from "paper to practice." This nurse develops the necessary study forms, plans for staff education and projects participant scheduling according to the study target dates and Investigator preference." ******************************************************
Midwest Nursing Research Society (MNRS):"In 1975, a handful of nurses involved in a Department of Health and Human Services' research project -- the Nursing Faculty Research Development in the Midwest (NFRDM), planted the seeds that would grow into today's premier nursing research organization -- the Midwest Nursing Research Society (MNRS). Today, with more than 1,400 members, MNRS has moved to the forefront of promoting, disseminating and utilizing nursing research throughout the Midwest, profoundly influencing the enormous growth in quality and quantity of nursing research for more than 20 years." ******************************************************
Program for Research
in Military Nursing:
Progress and Future Direction, Committee on Military Nursing Research, Institute Of Medicine:"High-quality nursing care is essential to obtain favorable patient outcomes. Military nursing research has the capacity to prevent health problems, improve patient care, and contribute to appropriate and desirable outcomes that are cost-effective in many situations. In the last 45 years, considerable progress has been made in wide-ranging applications of research in military nursing. Unarguably, however, further evolution and programs of military nursing research will depend on enhanced scholarly inquiry by military nurses and on the dissemination and application of research results." ******************************************************
Southern Nursing Research Society:"Southern Nursing Research Society was founded in 1986 when sixty nurses met in Atlanta and debated the possibility of an organization for nursing researchers in the southern region. In 1987, SNRS was declared an independent organization. There are 14 states in the Society region: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia. In 1991, the boundaries were expanded to include the Caribbean, Latin America and the Bahamas. In 1992 and 1993, several organizational procedures were streamlined and formalized, Society archives were established and strategic planning was initiated." ******************************************************
