The Incivility Solution: Tools to Foster Self-Transcendence for Nurse Educators<br />
Presented by: Cynthia Keeton Brown, MSN, BSN, RN, HCA<br />
Room: Promenade B<br />
The significance <strong>of</strong> the problem <strong>of</strong> incivility in nursing education is well researched and documented in<br />
nursing scholarly literature (Clark, 2013). Evidence from an extensive review <strong>of</strong> recent literature proposes that<br />
nursing faculty are uniquely situated to stem the rising incidence <strong>of</strong> incivility in nursing education. Emerging<br />
from evidence-based research, multiple resources for self-care activities are presented. Adopting a daily<br />
practice <strong>of</strong> self-care is suggested for the nurse and a focus on mindful awareness during interactions with<br />
colleagues, students and community. Role-modeling civility by nurse educators is recommended as the first<br />
step to addressing incivility in nursing.<br />
Learning Outcomes:<br />
1. Summarize the phenomena <strong>of</strong> incivility in nursing education.<br />
2. Integrate best practices to promote civility in nursing education.<br />
3. Apply mindful awareness and selected daily practices to create an environment <strong>of</strong> civility in nursing<br />
education.<br />
