Abstract
Abstract
As the clinical nurse leader (CNL) in this project, I used the “[CNL]
Essential 1: Background for Practice from Sciences and Humanities” (Competencies and Curricular Expectations for Clinical Nurse Leader Education and Practice, 2013) and its competencies to focus on designing nursing care for a clinical or community-focused population based on biopsychosocial, public health, nursing, and organizational sciences and to synthesize evidence for practice to determine appropriate application of interventions across diverse populations. With the help of the CNL competencies and collaboration with the healthcare team, we created and implemented a therapeutic garden for residents in a substance use recovery program and taught them lessons in many facets of gardening and specific ways to take care of their social emotional well-being throughout life (Competencies and Curricular Expectations for Clinical Nurse Leader Education and Practice, 2013).
