The Conversation Project

At the INANE Annual Meeting in August, 2015, Kathleen Ahern Gould, Editor-in-Chief of Dimensions in Critical Care Nursing, presented information about The Conversation Project at the Annual Business meeting. Kathleen noted that as editors, we have a powerful platform to disseminate information through editorials and opinion pieces in our journals. She pointed to the success of the Future of Nursing Initiative (2012) and Predatory Journals and Publishers Project (2014) and suggested that we could do the same thing with conversations about end-of-life care and wishes.

This page is the starting point for this project. As editorials and other articles are published in nursing journals, we will list them here. If you have resources that should be added, please send the link to INANE through our contact page. Thank you in advance!
