Christian Principles and Nursing Advocacy
In no more than 250 words, discuss how principles of a Christian worldview lend support to legislative advocacy in health care without bias. Be specific as to how these principles help advocate for inclusiveness and positive health outcomes for all populations, including those more vulnerable, without regard to gender, sexual orientation, culture, race, religion/belief, etc.
The Christian worldview considers the principle of equity and fairness as a fundamental aspect that governs society. This comes from Mathew 7:12 which teaches us to do to others what we want to be done to us. Therefore, advocacy through legislative agenda seeks to bring equity in care provision by ensuring that all patients enjoy the same level of quality care across the board.
In advocating for adequate nurse-to-patient ratios, all patients are going to enjoy quality care, with very few instances if any of missed care, thus promoting equity in care provision. The Christian worldview also advocates for the principle of love and care for others.
Therefore, advocacy through legislation ensures that nurses have the required level of support, including having enough nurse workers needed to provide the best care to patients based on their needs without any limitations, whether geographical, cultural any other barriers that may limit care provision
