A Dynamic and Inclusive Approach.

Abstract

After a year of transition to a new publisher, Creative Nursing 2024 will build on our legacy of nurturing novice authors with a Student Article of the Year initiative; presenting courageous discourse as reflected in our overarching theme for the year, The Impact of Social Forces on Nursing and Health; and publishing even more new knowledge in the form of research and discussion of nursing theories and models. This issue's theme, Activism, Advocacy, and Allyship, is exemplified by articles about paths to a nursing workforce that reflect the people we serve, and about concepts such as hygge, dialectical pluralism, acculturative stress, shared decision-making for breast health, nature immersion, iceberg demographics, and self-care in palliative care.
