As a nurse, how often have you thought to yourself, If I had anything to do about it, things would work a little differently? Increasingly, nurses are beginning to realize that they do, in fact, have a role and a voice.Many nurses encounter daily experiences that motivate them to take on an advocacy role in hopes of impacting policies, laws, or regulations that impact healthcare issues of interest. Of course, doing so means entering the less familiar world of policy and politics. While many nurses do not initially feel prepared to operate in this space effectively, the reward is the opportunity to shape and influence future health policy.To Prepare:Select a bill that has been proposed (not one that has been enacted) using the congressional websites provided in the Learning Resources.The Assignment: ( 2-page Comparison Grid; ÿ2-page Legislation Testimony/Advocacy Statement)Part 1: Legislation Comparison GridBased on the health-related bill (proposed, not enacted) you selected, complete the Legislation Comparison Grid Template.
