DEDICATION
To all professional nurses who have a passion for nursing that enables them to share their values, beliefs, and skills to make differences in the lives of others and to shape the nursing profession. To Dr. Susan Leddy and Dr. Mae Pepper, who saw the need for a textbook to meet the needs of registered nurses who were continuing their education. To all the readers of this text who have the courage to take the risk of returning to school or pursuing a professional nursing career. To the following persons whose actions, values, and beliefs enabled me to live out my dream of being a professional nurse: my parents, Bob and Helen Chamberlin; Mary Belle Hickey, RN, my first nurse manager, who always challenged me to be the best possible nurse and gave me the confidence to pursue higher education; my dear mentor, Dr. Susan Leddy, professor of nursing who showed me the essence of nursing scholarship; and my loving husband, Michael, who selflessly gives me the time, support, and humor to live out my dreams.

In Memory
J. Mae Pepper January 18, 1936–March 19, 1997 For 20 years, Mae was Susan Leddy’s colleague, coauthor, mentor, and friend. In 1977, Mae joined the faculty at Mercy College in Dobbs Ferry, New York. Mae’s previous teaching experience at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, New York University, and Bronx Community College, as well as her vision, wisdom, and dedication, was crucial to the development and accreditation of the new baccalaureate program for registered nurses and to the subsequent development of the first master’s program at the college.
Mae held the position of Chairperson of the Nursing program from 1981 until her sudden death in March 1997 from a ruptured aortic aneurysm. Although she talked for years about leaving administration in order to do more scholarly work, she continued to serve as Chair out of a sense of duty and responsibility. She was devoted to the students and faculty, and very conscientious in her service to the College and many civic and professional organizations.
Mae found time to read voraciously, listen to music, care for animals, and to enjoy outdoor white-water rafting, camping, and bird watching. She loved her garden, was a careful craftsperson in her furniture refinishing, and liked to go to garage sales and flea markets looking for collectibles. Mae had a good sense of humor and loved a good time. Devoted to her friends and family, she willingly gave time and attention to anyone who asked. She was a great listener, and her counsel was always wise and kind. Mae lived her belief in mutuality, genuineness, and respect for others.

Susan Kun Leddy February 23, 1939–February 23, 2007 For 14 years, Susan was my mentor and friend. We met in 1993 when I became a doctoral student at Widener University. Susan had a long distinguished career in nursing education. She set high academic standards for herself and also expected her students to attain them. Her favorite question posed to us was “So what?” thereby forcing us to verify the significance of what we said or wrote.
Susan earned a Bachelor of Science nursing degree from Skidmore College in New York in 1960. In 1965, she completed a master of science in nursing degree from Boston University. She completed a doctor of philosophy degree in 1973 at New York University. Never wanting to stop learning, she did postdoctoral work at Harvard University in 1985 and the University of Pennsylvania from 1996 to 1998.
During her first 4 years as a nurse educator, Susan taught in diploma schools and taught in the baccalaureate program at Columbia University before completing her doctoral studies. She and three other faculties founded the RN-BSN program at Pace University. In 1976, she was asked to do a feasibility study and generate a proposal to the state of New York to develop a new RN-to-BSN nursing program at Mercy College. As program chair, Susan and Mae Pepper both opened the program in 1977. The two of them realized the need for a textbook to meet the needs of registered nurses returning to school for baccalaureate education and co-wrote Conceptual Bases for Nursing Practice that was first published in 1981. After a trip to Wyoming, Susan became enthralled with the mountains. She moved to the state and became the first dean of the School of Nursing at the University of Wyoming in 1981. In 1984, she was appointed as the Dean of the reconstituted College of Health Sciences at the University of Wyoming. In 1988, she returned to the East Coast as the Dean of the School of Nursing at Widener University in Chester, Pennsylvania until 1993 when she gave up her administrative position to assume teaching responsibilities mainly in the doctoral program.
Susan was a prolific scholar and has many journal publications. After her retirement and while battling breast cancer, Susan continued to write. In addition to previous editions of this text, she authored Integrative Health Promotion: Conceptual Bases for Nursing Practice and Health Promotion: Mobilizing Strengths to Enhance Health, Wellness & Well-Being. Both of these books received Book of the Year Awards from the American Journal of Nursing.
Susan made time to travel and visited nearly every place in the world. She found her trips exhilarating and stimulating. She incorporated many of the ideas from her travels into her Human Energy Model. Susan also enjoyed quilting, weaving, and dabbling in watercolors. She was very energetic and always had a project to accomplish.
Susan deeply loved her daughters, Deborah and Erin, and made certain that they had what they needed to pursue successful lives. She adored her granddaughter, Katie, who always got her to laugh and smile even through some very rough times.
Susan exemplified the life of a true scholar, superb teacher, and devoted mother. It is my hope to live up to the standards of my beloved mentor and friend. I miss her great words of wisdom and support.

Preface
In the early 1980s, Susan Leddy and Mae Pepper realized the need for a professional development textbook for registered nurses who were returning to school to earn baccalaureate degrees in nursing. This edition builds on the previous contributions that Leddy and Pepper made in earlier editions of Professional Nursing. So that the memory of Susan Leddy and May Pepper will continue, their names have appeared as part of the book title since 2003.
I express my sincere appreciation to the following persons for their creativity and attention to detail during the revision process: Christina Burns, Senior Acquisitions Editor; Dan Reilly, Associate Development Editor; Amberly Hyden, Editorial Coordinator; Jennifer Clements, Art Director; Holly McLaughlin, Design Coordinator; and Karan Singh Rana and the Production Team staff. A special note of thanks to Dr. Cheryl Stetler for permission to reproduce the Stetler Model of Evidence-Based Practice.

Learning Tools
Continued efforts have been made to make this book more “user-friendly” and to engage students in the learning process and in the application of this material to practice. The book received an updated look to facilitate reading and mastery of concepts essential for effective professional nursing practice. Features from the previous editions have been renamed and revised and new features added. In addition to such textbook standards as Key Terms and Concepts, Learning Outcomes, and References, each chapter also includes the following.
Real-Life Reflections (formerly Vignettes): Case studies are presented at the beginning of each chapter and revisited at chapter’s end, highlighting for students the application of the chapter’s content to practice and providing questions for thought as they read the chapter.
Questions for Reflection (formerly Think Time): Questions posed throughout the text help students think about their own life experiences in the context of their learning.
Focus on Research: Current journal articles are synopsized to relate research to learning and practice. Concepts in Practice: Hypothetical clinical situations teach professional nurses how they can best incorporate text concepts into real-life practice.
From Theory to Practice: End-of-chapter questions ask students to think about each chapter’s content in the context of their own lives.
Nurse as Author: Short writing exercises designed to strengthen critical thinking and writing skills. The nature of the written exercise in each chapter relates to and depends upon the nature of chapter content.
Your Digital Classroom: At the end of each chapter, online resources are brought together to provide students with opportunities for further study and reflection. These include Online Exploration (compilation of websites appropriate to each chapter’s content); Expanding Your Understanding (Internet-based exercises); and Beyond the Book (a link to and instructions for accessing the numerous online resources now available with this text).
Text boxes have been categorized to help students identify the purpose of their content.
Professional Building Blocks: Highlight clinical and professional implications. Learning, Knowing, and Growing: Provides students with information to help them grow both personally and professionally.
Professional Prototypes: Provide examples of documents, concepts, philosophies, and more with suggestions for personal and professional growth.

As Mae Pepper and Susan Leddy noted in the preface to the third edition,
During these changing times, we have been pleased with the utilization of our book in many educational settings, particularly in baccalaureate and graduate programs. Although the first edition of the book was targeted for upper division RN baccalaureate programs, we have become aware of its utilization in generic baccalaureate programs, masters programs, and practice settings.
