The Intensive Care NSW (ICNSW) Nurse Leaders group has developed the new NSW intensive care unit (ICU) nursing clinical pathway.
The resource provides a professional development framework facilitating the delivery of clinical care and career direction planning for ICU nurses. It suggests a dynamic pathway for nurses as they develop from novice to expert; acquiring skills to deliver safe patient care, by progressing at their own pace.
ICNSW facilitates the collaborative Nurse Leaders group, which represents ICU nurse educators, clinical nurse consultants and nurse managers from metropolitan and rural NSW. The group is a forum for networking, professional development, remaining informed about ICU matters and progressing priority projects.
Thank you to the ICU clinicians who provided feedback that led to the pathway and the working group who developed this valuable resource.
