EXEMPLARY PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE
Safety, patient-centered care, interdisciplinary relationships and professional outcomes of care Exemplary Professional Practice is the heart and soul of nursing, the true essence of a Magnet organization. It integrates all the elements of a Magnet nursing practice: quality, safe care delivery — a partnership among patients, families, communities and other caregivers and experts; interprofessional activities; a culture of safety, caregiver support and ethics; and robust peer feedback. This component is more than the establishment of strong professional practice; it is what that professional practice can achieve when exemplary.
