| radiologic technologist study guide: Radiologic and Imaging Nursing American Nurses Association, 2013 Radiologic and imaging nursing is the specialty practice concerned with the assessment, care planning, and direct care of individuals before, during, and after diagnostic and therapeutic imaging procedures. As well, radiologic and imaging nurses advocate for those individuals and their families, and are often the voice of those unable to speak for themselves. Accordingly, these RNs are concerned with the safety of both such individuals and the staff who provide such services. This publication is a guide to the essentials of this specialty, a framework for its practice. ANA and the Association for Radiologic and Imaging Nursing have collaborated to produce a foundational resource for contemporary radiologic and imaging nursing practice. Written by nurse experts aided by the review and other input from other nurses, Radiologic and Imaging Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice is a comprehensive, up-to-date delineation of the competent level of nursing practice and professional performance common to and expected from radiologic and imaging registered nurses whatever their practice levels or setting. It reflects the current thinking, practice, and research in radiologic and imaging nursing. The publication's scope of practice addresses what is expected of all radiologic and imaging registered nurses, specifying the who, what, where, when, why and how of radiologic and imaging nursing practice. The detailed discussion of that scope of practice provides the context needed to understand and use the standards. The 16 standards are those by which all radiologic and Imaging RNs are held accountable for their practice. Each standard is measurable by a set of specific competencies that serve as evidence of minimal compliance with that standard. This foundational volume reflects the diverse activities of radiologic and imaging nurses and serves them in their clinical practice, education, and research. While primarily for specialty practitioners and the educators, students, and others directly involved in nursing care, research, advocacy; and certification, this book can also inform other healthcare providers, researchers, and scholars as well as employers, insurers, lawyers, regulators, policy makers, and stakeholders. Since the late 1990s, ANA has partnered with other nursing organizations to establish a format process for recognition of specially areas of nursing practice. This includes the criteria for approving the specialty itself and the scope statement, and an acknowledgment by ANA of the standards of practice for that specialty. Because of the significant changes in the evolving nursing and healthcare environments, ANA's approval of specialty nursing scope statements and its acknowledgment of specialty standards of practice remain valid for five years, starting from the publication date of the documents. The standards in this publication are based on language from ANA's Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice, Second Edition, a helpful supplement to this specialty text, which in turn is of optimal use with two complementary ANA texts: Nursing's Social Policy Statement: The Essence of the Profession and Guide to the Code of Ethics for Nurses: Interpretation and Application. These three books are also available as a set, ANA's Foundation of Nursing 2010 Package, to guide nursing practice, thinking, and decision-making. The set is proving useful as a professional reference, classroom textbook, in-service training guide, and credentialing exam resource. For more on these publications, go to www.Nursesbooks.org.
