"Giving Voice to What We Know links Margaret Newman's Theory of Health as Expanding Consciousness (HEC) with nursing knowledge development, research, and nursing administration. At s time when nurses are increasingly asked to justify their contribution to clinical practice outcomes. Giving Voice to What We Know serves as a guide for nurses to do so by articulating their contributions to both immediate and long-term changes in healthcare. Written by nurses who teach, research, and practice within the theoretical framework of HEC, the text provides clear examples of theory-based practice models, as well as a variety of practical examples for using the model to create a partnership with patients—the essence of nursing. Giving Voice to What We Know will serve as an important theoretical perspective to influence current and future leaders in healthcare organizations to optimize professional nursing practice and enhance patient and family-centered care." —Back cover
